Please change the wallet_address, worker_name, zil_node_ip, and get_work_port accodingly.

  • For wallet_address: You can use the Zilliqa Wallet to create a new keypair and a Zilliqa address.
  • For worker_name You can key in any abitrary worker name you desire.

  • For get_work_port: Please key in the port used in GETWORK_SERVER_PORT. Default is 4202.

Dual Mining

  1. Write 2 scripts yourself to start/stop other coin's miner.
  2. Add arg --pow-start to stop other miner before ZIL PoW starting.
  3. Add arg --pow-end to start other miner after ZIL PoW stopped.

example:

zilminer --pow-start stopAE.bat --pow-end startAE.bat -P zil://wallet_address.worker_name@zil_node_ip:get_work_port
  1. [Optional] If your GPU memory is not enough, add arg --clear-dag to clear ZIL DAG after ZIL PoW stopped.

Dual Mining Scripts:

Zilminer + GMiner - Beam + ZIL

Write 2 batch files: start_beam.bat batch file to start beam miner:

taskkill /f /im miner.exe >null
START cmd /c "miner.exe --algo 150_5 --server beam-us.leafpool.com --port 4444 --ssl 1 --user walletxxx.namexxx"

stop_beam.bat batch file to stop beam miner:

taskkill /f /im miner.exe >null

Zilminer:

zilminer.exe --pow-start stop_beam.bat --pow-end start_beam.bat --pow-end-at-startup -P zil://wallet_address.worker_name@proxy.getzil.com:5000/api

If your GPU memory is not enough for 2 miners, add zilminer arg --clear-dag
