I take it, this isnā€™t going to work until main-net? Thanks for this post!
Also can we get a cut and paste of the Installation URL?

  1. Currently works on testnet
  2. Yes, itā€™s proper way - copy-paste URL into ā€œInstallation URLā€ and correct name as ā€œMiner nameā€ appears

Before start mainet some updates, bugs fixes possible.
Stay tuned!

This works. Something to note the ā€œWallet and worker templateā€ in custom config is:
your_email/rig_name.

This is setup when registering with Sparkpool.

Note that a random email is created when registering, so be sure to add one that you own. HiveOS Wallet address does not really matter unless passing as variable (I didnā€™t, just hardcoded ā€œyour_email/rig_nameā€).

Now to figure out how to get a wallet address. Looks like no wallet with a gui pre-compiled exists.

Its seems to make sure these new algos are asic resistant you need 6-8gb cards which are making 3-4gb cards useless or unprofitable to mine with

Thereā€™s no GUI wallet as of yet, and CLI for Linux or Mac so far, plus thereā€™s not really an address, you can apparently setup a listener node then would have to do a port forward on your network (or a VPS I suppose) and then send to your IP address. Thereā€™s alternate methods as well, but Iā€™ve not seen a pool yet implement them.

Iā€™m just wondering - will it be possible to mine Grin with 4GB cards in the near future?

A lot of us have farms with 4-6GB cards (RX470, GTX1060, P104, P106), which were acquired due to their low market prices (when compared to video gaming GPUs).

Running numerous rigs in HiveOS, using bminer. Solid hashrate ~4 on each 1070TI. Been running for several hours.

However, sparkpool still shows 0 workers.

Config shows ā€œ%40ā€ instead of ā€œ@ā€ symbol. Is this normal or problematic?

Any chance of adding TLS support? Grinmint pool offers a TLS port, but there is no option to enable TLS in the custom miner config. Using a TLS port prevents the miner from running.

Can you do one also for Bminer and Gminer please ?

Was it tested with RTX GPUs?

Custom was temporary solution. With latest update miner integrated into Hive itself
