How to set up your Hive OS wallet

Step 1) Decide on the coin and the mining pool

If you decided to mine in a pool, you will have to register within that pool directly from their website. For example, Suprnova’s pool website is https://suprnova.cc/. The great part about Hive OS is that they have automated many of the major pools. You simply have to register within the pool's platform, create a worker and password for that worker, and get that information ready for the next steps within Hive OS.

Step 2) Click on your worker & navigate to wallet

Click on Create Wallet and then enter in the information required. It is best to know which coin you wish to mine for along with which mining pool you wish to use. Hive OS also gives you the option to set up your miner with whatever configuration you wish, so you can mine coins solo if you prefer.

This wallet contains the pool wallet address that your mining rewards goes to. After you sign up to a certain pool (for example, Suprnova) you will then have to input your personal wallet address you want your mining balance to go to after it reaches a certain threshold. For Hive OS platform, for Suprnova, the wallet address you need will be workername.password. On step 1, the demo worker name was Demoboiz and the password was Yuh. So the wallet address for Supernova on Hive OS would be Demoboiz.Yuh.

This is not true for every mining pool. Sometimes these pools have a true wallet address. Other times, it will be similar to Suprnova with the workername.password format.

Notice that Suprnova and Miningpoolhub both have the workername.pw format while NiceHash has their own wallet address (found in your account). Or, if you decide to mine solo, it will go to the personal wallet address you choose to use, directly from the miner.

Step 3) Click on Flight Sheets

Enter in the coin you wish to mine followed by the wallet you want to use. You should have set this up on Step 2. If you need to add another wallet to utilize, click on the Add Wallet option.

If you choose a pool, it will naturally give you the option to use the stratum (or mining URL) stored within the database. More often, it is accurate, but you will have to verify that yourself by searching for the stratum for each coin on the website.

Select on the pool server and verify that it is correct and up to date.

Select the miner from the dropdown. If you own an NVIDIA computer (Intel Chip), use the CC Miner. If you own AMD (Ryzen Chip), use SG Miner. The miner dropdown list may vary depending on the pool or coin.

Step 4) Click on the Rocketship

After all that is done, you can create the Flight sheet. Go back to the Flight Sheet tab, and click on the rocket ship.

Clicking on the rocket ship will make this your main wallet and miner. When you boot up the miner, it will use this wallet and miner to start mining.
