How to mine Cryptix
In this post, I briefly describe the Cryptix blockchain and provide mining tips for those who want to participate.
About the Cryptix blockchain
Cryptix (ticker CPAY) is a Kaspa-family DAG chain that uses its own Cryptix OX8 hashing algorithm. Like the other fast block-DAGs, blocks arrive quickly and there are no ommer/uncle penalties, so miners see full rewards.
Cryptix launched without pre-mine or pre-sale.Emission schedule
Rewards follow a smooth reduction schedule; check the explorer for current emission and supply data.
Maximum supply is 520,395,506 CPAY.
Mining Cryptix
Cryptix uses the Cryptix OX8 algorithm. It is GPU-friendly and currently best mined with modern NVIDIA/AMD GPUs.
Cryptix Wallet
Cryptix provides a wallet daemon and a light wallet. You can download the latest release from the official repository.
Cryptix OX8 is ASIC-resistant at launch and tuned for GPU mining.
Here is the mining software supported for pool stratum mining on Cryptix.
| Miner | Source | Dev Fee | Hardware | OS | Download |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| OneZeroMiner | closed source | 2.00% | NVIDIA, AMD | Windows/Linux | OneZeroMiner |
| Pool | Hardware | Stratum Difficulty | Pool URL |
|---|---|---|---|
| PPS | Any | Auto | http://nushypool.com:40008 |
| Solo | Any | Auto | http://nushypool.com:45008 |
To start mining
If your Windows suggests that the miners are "potentially unwanted" software, you may need to select "Allow on device" option in Windows Security settings.
Find the nearest server to your geographical area, and ping it. If the ping is done for less than 100ms, you can consider this server for mining.
$ ping nushypool.comRun the miner. The command line depends on your OS. For example to start mining with OneZeroMiner, run:
$ ./onezerominer --algo cryptix_ox8 --pool stratum+tcp://nushypool.com:40008 --wallet [address] --worker [workername]You can quickly configure your command in our CPAY Pool Page and tap "Start Mining" button.
Good luck!
