NOTE: Currently Windows 10 64-bit and Linux 64-bit operating systems are supported. Your computer must have an AMD or Nvidia GPU with latest drivers installed.

WARNING: Please do not mine to Exchange wallet because Exchanges do extra monitoring and verification on incoming funds and if you are mining to Exchange wallet, it puts extra strain on their resources.

Payment Info: We are not charging a pool fee. After you mine a block with our pool, please wait about 24 hrs to receive payment. If your Address does not show up at https://pool.bitcoinrm.org/workers (even after 15 minutes), that means your miner is misconfigured. If your miner sends a lot of invalid shares, you will be banned. You can go here to check balance for your Address:

1. Download EWBF. (Windows version) (Linux version) See Bitcointalk thread
2. Make sure you have latest version of Nvidia GPU drivers installed. See Nvidia Drivers
3. Install Bitcoin RM software. See Downloads (Note your Bitcoin RM address down. Also want to backup your wallet file BCRM.imp in a safe place).
4. Create the following configuration file and save it as config.txt. You can download a sample configuration file here: config.txt

5. Verify that you have inserted your Bitcoin RM address in place of Your-BitcoinRM-Address in configuration file: config.txt
6. Launch miner as follows:

2. Download configuration file: user_config.txt and save it inside the same directory where user_config.json exists
3. Edit this configuration file and enter your Bitcoin RM address on "USER": line. Then save the file
4. Rename old user_config.json to user_configOLD.json
5. Rename user_config.txt to user_config.json
6. Edit both run_miner.sh and run_miner_with_restart.sh such that the line beginning with PROFILE= looks like this in each file:
   PROFILE=EXAMPLE_BCRM
7. Start mining!
   ./run_miner.sh

   set "PROFILE=EXAMPLE_BCRM"
7. Double click on run_miner.bat to start mining!

Cloud GPU mining

If your home electricity costs more than Cloud GPU Service rates, it is cheaper for you to mine with a Cloud GPU Service. For example: If your electric company charges you $0.09 per hour, it may be cheaper to mine with a Cloud GPU Service that charges you $0.02 per hour. Currently, we released Docker images for cloud mining with Nvidia GPU cards only. So, no support for cloud mining with AMD GPU cards for now.

Many Cloud GPU Services exist such as Vast.ai, Octa.space, Runpod etc. The following example is for a Cloud GPU Service called Salad.com

1. Create a group and deploy one replica (i.e. one docker instance) inside that group. Use our official docker image:

• For EWBF miner, use docker image: bitcoinrm/ubuntu:ewbf
• For miniZ miner, use docker image: bitcoinrm/ubuntu:miniz

In my example, I choose the first one to use EWBF miner to mine my GTX 1050 Ti card

2. Choose a GPU with the lowest priority. Choose the right GPU that works with the miner. For example, if you used bitcoinrm/ubuntu:ewbf image above, you should choose a GPU that works with EWBF miner. Choose minimum values for other resources: 1 CPU, 1 GB RAM, 64MB shared memory and no additional disk space. Only one replica (instance). Settings shown below for my example:

3. Do not enable Container Gateway, Logging Services or Environment Variables:

4. Enable Liveness Probe with the following settings. Do not enable other probes.

• Protocol: exec
• Probe command: /root/healthcheck.sh
• Initial Delay: 10 seconds
• Period: 60 seconds
• Timeout: 10 seconds
• Success Threshold: 1
• Failure Threshold: 1

5. Configure your Wallet Address. On Salad.com, you have to specify both the command (./run.sh) and your Wallet Address (as argument). You can also append a period and a short nick name to the Address.

Command: ./run.sh

Argument: Rxxxxxxx.james

See below for my example settings:
