Welcome Guest

Let's smash this block round :) Pool fees for Doge reduced to 0.5%, happy digging shibes. #united-miners on freenode (you can access IRC on webchat through Contact).

Getting Started Guide

  1. Create account.
    • Register here, or login if you already have account
    • Create a worker that will be used by the miner to login
  2. Download a miner.
  3. Configure your miner.

    Settings for Stratum (recommended):

    STRATUM:stratum+tcp://doge.united-miners.com
    PORT:3337
    Username:Weblogin.Worker
    Password:Worker Password

    How to run the Miner software:

        Note: The configurations below are the most default you can get, you will gain hashrate by optimizing it for your hardware. A complete list of settings for most CPUs/GPUs and other hardware can be found here.

    • BFGMiner 
      bfgminer --scrypt  -o stratum+tcp://doge.united-miners.com:3337 -u Weblogin.Worker -p WorkerPass
    • CGMiner 
      cgminer --scrypt  -o stratum+tcp://doge.united-miners.com:3337 -u Weblogin.Worker -p WorkerPass
    • CUDAMiner 
      cudaminer -o stratum+tcp://doge.united-miners.com:3337 -O Weblogin.Worker:WorkerPass
    • CPUMiner 
      minerd --url=stratum+tcp://doge.united-miners.com:3337 --userpass=Weblogin.Worker:WorkPass

    If you want, you can create additional workers with usernames and passwords of your choice Here

  4. Create a DogeCoin address to recieve payments.
    • Downloading the client & blockchain: Download the DogeCoin client from here.

      Generate a new address and input it on your account page to receive payments. It's also recommended you set an automatic threshold to receive the coins.

  5. Advanced cgminer settings / FAQ
    • Scrypt readme
    • Don't set intensity too high, I=11 is standard and safest. Higher intensity takes more GPU RAM. Check for hardware errors in cgminer (HW). HW=0 is good, otherwise lower intensity :)
    • Set shaders according to the readme (or look at your graphic cards specifications). Cgminer uses this value at first run to calculate thread-concurrency. Easiest way to get this optimized is to use same settings as others have used here: here.
    • There's also an interesting project which gives you a GUI for cgminer. Windows only it seems.
    • Here's a great guide how to get up and running with Xubuntu.
