In transactions are grouped into blocks. These blocks are validated by PoW miners.

When a block is validated it becomes a permanent part of the Decred network. You can become a miner by dedicating spare computing resources to the network.

In return miners are rewarded with Decred. For efficiency and convenience you can join. The pools are groups of miners who share the work and split the reward. Joining a mining pool is an excellent way for smaller contributors to receive consistent payouts for their work.

Proof-of-Work (PoW) Mining Overview Proof-of-work mining, more commonly referred to as PoW mining, is the activity of committing your computer’s hardware and resources to process network transactions and build the blocks that make up the blockchain in the Decred network.

Each time a block is created (by a miner), about 30 new Decred coins are made. These coins are then split up as follows: Subsidy Party 60% PoW Miners 30% PoS Voters 10% Decred development subsidy You will, on average, receive a reward that is roughly proportional to the hashrate of your miner and the overall hashrate of the network when you commit your computer to PoW mining. To get started, you must have a computer with a video card. Most video cards can be used for mining (including the “mobile” types found in some laptops). In general, higher end video cards perform at higher hashrates and therefore receive higher rewards. Solo Mining or Pool Mining Solo Mining Solo mining is not recommended and is not covered by this documentation! The Decred network regularly sees a network hash rate of up to 10,000Gh/s.

Solo mining is generally only done by advanced individuals or organized groups with a large cluster of GPUs so it is not addressed here. Pool Mining When you mine in a pool, your hashrate is combined with all the other pool miners’ hashrates to look for the correct solution for a block. You will receive a reward based on the amount of work your miner performs in the pool.

Pool mining distributes shares based on blocks found so you can earn a steady amount of Decred rather than the “all or none” of solo mining. Obtain a Decred Address to Receive Funds With Follow the guide and create an address so you can withdraw mining rewards to it. Sign up for a Mining Pool These mining pools are known to support Decred: • • • • • • • Mining pools all work more or less the same but you may wish to sign up at multiple pools and see which one suits you the best. Please choose to mine on a smaller pool so the network’s hashrate can be spread out for better decentralization of mining power!

GPU Drivers/Software GPU drivers usually contain the libraries needed for mining. BridgeCoin BCO Miner Hosting Canada here. If you have difficulties running the software you may wish to re-install and specifically check that the OpenCL (AMD) or CUDA (NVIDIA) libraries are selected. Select and Download Mining Software Official Decred Miner (gominer) Gominer is the official Decred miner developed and supported by the Decred team.

Decred Documentation Home. Solo Mining Buying Tickets and. Both PoS and PoW miners are compensated with DCR for the resources used to mine the block.

It is the easiest miner to setup and start mining and so it is recommended for most users. Currently, the latest version of gominer is and the official binaries can be downloaded from Please be certain to select the correct operating system (Windows/Linux) and the correct version for your GPU type (CUDA for NVIDIA cards, OpenCL/OpenCLADL for AMD cards). Gominer is only available to 64-bit operating systems. User guides to start mining with gominer can be found here: • Unofficial Miners • - cgminer is a popular miner for AMD GPUs that has a long history of use in many different cryptocurrencies. It is more difficult to use than the decred gominer.

• - ccminer is a popular miner for NVIDIA GPUs that has a long history of use in many different cryptocurrencies. It is more difficult to use than the decred gominer. • - Those with an AMD graphics card running Windows may want to download sgminer. Running the Software • Decompress and install the software to a place of your choosing. • Open a command prompt to that path. • Follow your mining pools instructions for setup. • Run the miner.
