Mining Guide

This is a comprehensive guide on how to mine Xolentum on your machine using XMRig and xolentumd daemon or a mining pool.

  • You will need to either download prebuilt binaries of the latest XMRig release available here or compile it on your system using the guide available here.
  • After downloading/building XMRig on your system, switch to the $XMRIG_ROOT/build directory and create a file called config.json with the following content:

    Using daemon

    {
        "autosave": true,
        "donate-level": 1,
        "cpu": true,
        "opencl": false,
        "cuda": false,
        "pools": [
            {
                "algo": "rx/0",
                "url": "127.0.0.1:13579",
                "user": "xyz123",
                "daemon": true
            }
        ]
    }
    Do remember to replace xyz123 with your Xolentum wallet address.
    Also, change donate-level to whatever amount you would like to donate to XMRig developers (donations can be disabled in the source code but the application has to be self-compiled).

    Using mining pool

    {
        "autosave": true,
        "donate-level": 1,
        "cpu": true,
        "opencl": false,
        "cuda": false,
        "pools": [
            {
                "coin": "xolentum",
                "algo": "rx/0",
                "url": "xolentumpool.tld:1234",
                "user": "xyz123",
                "pass": "x",
                "tls": false,
                "keepalive": true,
                "nicehash": false
            }
        ]
    }
    Set the mining pool in the pool.address:port format in url field. Do remember to replace xyz123 with your Xolentum wallet address.
    Also, change donate-level to whatever amount you would like to donate to XMRig developers (donations can be disabled in the source code but the application has to be self-compiled).

  • Henceforth, just execute the xmrig.exe file (on Windows) or ./xmrig (on Linux) and the miner should start.
