Hi reddit, I just manifested this randomx webminer that runs on ~13% of native execution efficiency in your fave browser, I think its cool, with jit support wasm proposals on the timeline (https://github.com/WebAssembly/jit-interface/blob/main/proposals/jit-interface/Explainer.md), we might eventually see webmining shine again, thoughts?

Full disclosure: this is my project. source: https://github.com/n0/monerospace-org

Isn't this dangerous? Sure it's not Qubic, but still, we should disperse our hashrate more.

How to mine on mobile (android)
And what to mine. Thanks

Hi all,

I'm following the instructions on https://docs.getmonero.org/interacting/mining/guides/solo/xmrig-solo/

I do have a local node on the same machine I have my xmrig.

I followed all the steps in the instruction (didn't do the optional zmq thing) but am still getting a connection error when trying to mine. See below images for the error. Does anybody have any thoughts? thank you,

I have a ryzen 7 4700g doing 2.6 KH/s and an i7 6700 doing 2.2 KH/s plus a couple other scraptops running 600ish H/s. This is mostly a hobby setup and I'm currently solo mining and funneling everything into my node running on my ryzen 7 4700g.

I fully understand this is not profitable at all, which is why I'm asking if it's worth pooling as if I were to it would be peanuts in comparison to the small chance of hitting a block.

Hey everyone,

Many years back a close friend of mine showed me his Mining rig, it was GPU’s stacked up in lots, running 24/7 with aircon haha!

Ever since then I’ve always had the want to get into mining and whenever I see anything in relation it fascinates me!

I’ve read that you can mine XMR with CPU’s instead of GPU’s, this caught my interest.

So I’m looking to build a minimal beginner rig to learn the process properly and understand the ecosystem and skills attained from learning.

Is it worth starting with a Gaming PC setup or a Workstation PC setup?

What would be a good entry build for a rig to start mining XMR?

My long term idea is to eventually run a setup partially off solar power with an inverter during the day and then to slowly expand over time in size and setup.

Would appreciate any recommendations, examples or advice from those whom are mining,

Cheers! :)

Hi Monero miners,

I’m working on a new Monero mining pool, and I’d like to hear what the community would actually want from a modern, miner-focused solo pool.

This project started because I became frustrated with the current options. Many pools appear to rely on old or reused GitHub software, with limited maintenance, outdated backend logic, and weak or poorly implemented Stratum layers. I couldn’t find a pool that truly met my expectations, so I decided to build one myself.

The pool is already running in production. So far, it has found 10 mainnet blocks, which gives me confidence that the infrastructure is working properly and is worth improving further.

At this stage, the pool is focused exclusively on solo mining. I’m personally not fully convinced by PPLNS or other payout models where miners receive partial rewards over time instead of the full block reward. Since I currently have enough hashrate to make solo mining viable, I prefer to keep the model simple, transparent, and based on the full block reward.

One of the most important features I’ve already implemented is direct coinbase payouts.

This means that when a block is found, the miner is paid directly from the block’s coinbase transaction, following the same direct-payout principle used by P2Pool. The difference is that my pool is currently focused on solo mining, so the miner who finds the block receives the full block reward (- pool fee) instead of a proportional PPLNS payout.

Many existing pools receive the block reward first and then pay miners later through regular transactions. I wanted to avoid that model and make the payout process as direct and transparent as possible.

Monero offers strong privacy. In my opinion, it is the best cryptocurrency ever created. Still, miners may eventually need to sell some XMR to cover electricity, hardware, hosting, or other mining-related costs. In some cases, exchanges may ask for an explanation of the origin of funds.

A payout made directly from the coinbase transaction can make that explanation clearer. The miner can prove control of the receiving wallet and point to the actual block reward transaction as evidence that the XMR came from mining. Of course, this does not guarantee that every exchange will accept it, but I believe it is a cleaner and more transparent model for miners.

Another area I have worked on is NiceHash compatibility. Many pools claim to be fully compatible with NiceHash, but in practice that compatibility is not always reliable or complete. For some users, being able to rent hashrate or test mining through NiceHash can be useful, so I have already implemented support for it as well.

Over time, I also became tired of relying on third-party installations and fragmented tooling across my mining rigs. Because of that, I started building my own miner management panels and a Debian-based mining distribution, focused on stability, control, and long-term maintainability.

After the pool is officially launched, I plan to make these tools available to miners who want to use the pool through a more stable and integrated environment.

I’m not sharing a link at this stage, and this is not meant to be a promotional post. My main goal is to gather feedback, ideas, criticism, and suggestions from real miners before making further decisions.

What would you like to see in a modern Monero solo mining pool?

Would direct coinbase payouts matter to you?

Would you try a reliable solo mining pool?

Is NiceHash compatibility important to you?

What frustrates you about existing pools?

What would make you trust a new pool?

What dashboard, statistics, API, or notification features would you want?

Are there any features you wish existing Monero pools had but rarely provide?

I hope other miners are willing to share their ideas and help shape a pool that actually meets our expectations.

Any feedback would be highly appreciated.

Thanks.

I'm pondering running a 50KH/s rig 20 hours/day (to avoid peak power prices).

What p2pool would be ideal for this (mini, nano, standard)?

Looks like Bitmain got scared off and have discontinued the X9 before it even got shipped.

They did seem a bit too good to be true with 1Mhs for 2500Watt. If something is too good to be true it usually is.

Great news for Monero and decentralization.

I'm running 2 laptops and a mini PC with a local node, the smallest amount of ram I've been able to run on is a 4 gigabyte laptop running Linux mint with huge pages disabled. I have several pieces of hardware with 2 gigs of ram that would otherwise be able to mine if it weren't for the soldered ram. Is it possible to run random x on less than 4 gigabytes?

I’ve noticed extremely high hashrate growing on their pool and suspect it is somehow linked to Pubic. Please relax me.

Whats the profitability of mining XMR with a 5090, not counting electricity expenses of course.

10 days in with my i7 7700k and I'm about 70% towards earning the minimum payout worth about 40¢ lol

Where can I find the best how to setup Monero mininig,I have two laptops,one is with windows ,other is Ubuntu.

Can I setup on both system...

GitHub?

I try with Gemini,dint find any useful
