How to mine Bitcoin Gold (BTG)?

BTG mining on Windows: step-by-step

Below, we list a few examples to get you mining Bitcoin Gold with miniZ.

You should check each pool page, since the pool may define more than one server or port number.

  • Suprnova.cchttps://btg.suprnova.cc
    miniZ.exe --url=YourUsername.Worker@btg.suprnova.cc:8866 --log --extra

    Using SSL port connection

    miniZ.exe --url=ssl://YourUsername.Worker@btg.suprnova.cc:8817 --log --extra
  • MiningPoolHub.com: https://bitcoin-gold.miningpoolhub.com
    miniZ.exe --url=YourUsername.Worker@europe.equihash-hub.miningpoolhub.com:20595 --log --extra
  • 2miners.comhttps://btg.2miners.com
    miniZ.exe --url=YourWallet.worker@btg.2miners.com:4040 --log --extra
  • ZHash.pro: https://btg.zhash.pro
    miniZ.exe --url=YourWallet.Worker@eu1.zhash.pro:5057 --log --extra
  • K1Pool: https://k1pool.com/pool/btg

    miniZ.exe --url=YourWallet.Worker@eu.btg.k1pool.com:3857 --log --extra
  • Solopool.org: https://btg.solopool.org
    miniZ.exe --url=YourWallet.Worker@eu2.solopool.org:8010 --log --extra

Normally, you do not need to write --pers=BgoldPoW because this is the default personalisation string. However, this may depend on the pool.

Also, be aware that some pools do not support --pers=auto, in this case it is better to not specify --pers at all or use --smart-pers.

For more information about miniZ command line arguments, please refer to Usage page.

Happy BTG mining!
