Setup Generator

Note: Using the setup generator is highly recommended if you are new to crypto mining

Stratum Configuration (Advanced Miners)

Login using your wallet address as username. An optional workername can be appended to your address separated by a dot character. Leave the password blank.

Example: <WALLET ADDRESS>.<WORKER>

Windows Nvidia GPU Mining

• Download ccminer from here
• Extract the archive and open ccminer.conf in a text-editor of your choice
• Replace the contents of the file with:

   {
     "max-log-rate" : 30,
     "quiet" : false,
     "debug" : false,
     "protocol" : false,
     "cpu-priority" : 3,
     "algo" : "neoscrypt",
     "url" : "stratum+tcp://gbx.coinfoundry.org:3142",
     "user" : "YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS",
     "pass" : "d=8"
   }

• Replace YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS with your GoByte wallet address. If you don't know your address, read this section first
• If you are mining on multiple machines/rigs, you can append an identifier of your choice to your wallet address seperated by a dot to make it easier to distinguish between your rigs when evaluating your results. Example: <WALLET ADDRESS>.<OPTIONAL WORKERNAME>
• Save the file
• Start ccminer.exe or ccminer-x64.exe

Linux Nvidia GPU Mining

• To mine GoByte on Linux using a Nvidia GPU you first need to install Nvidia Cuda
• Download ccminer from here
• Extract the archive with tar xfj ccminer-linux-x64-nvidia-cuda-8.0.tar.bz2 followed by cd ccminer-linux-x64-nvidia-cuda-8.0 and create ccminer.conf in a text-editor of your choice
• Paste:

   {
     "max-log-rate" : 30,
     "quiet" : false,
     "debug" : false,
     "protocol" : false,
     "cpu-priority" : 3,
     "algo" : "neoscrypt",
     "url" : "stratum+tcp://gbx.coinfoundry.org:3142",
     "user" : "YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS",
     "pass" : "d=8"
   }

• Replace YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS with your GoByte wallet address. If you don't know your address, read this section first
• If you are mining on multiple machines/rigs, you can append an identifier of your choice to your wallet address seperated by a dot to make it easier to distinguish between your rigs when evaluating your results. Example: <WALLET ADDRESS>.<OPTIONAL WORKERNAME>
• Save the file
• Run ./ccminer

Getting a Wallet

Before you can start to mine you need to create a wallet. Although GoByte is an entirely digital asset, you still need a place to store them. This is done in a digital wallet. There are multiple methods to obtain a wallet which vary by ease of use and the security they provide.

Official Wallets

Official first-party Wallets for all major platforms are available from the GoByte Website. These wallets are released and maintained by the GoByte Team.

Registering with an exchange

There are multiple digital currency exchanges you can register with. Registering with an exchange allows you to create a wallet on the exchange for every currency the exchange supports. Registering with an exchange is probably the most convenient way to obtain a wallet. Unfortunately it is also the least secure one. Exchanges have been hacked in the past!

Popular exchanges supporting GoByte are: Cryptopia and CoinExchange.
