How to setup Rigel for GPU mining


Compatible algorithms: Autolykos, KHeavyHash, FishHash, Nexapow, KarlsenHashV2, XelisHashV2


Download the mining files


You can get Rigel from their official Github repository (screenshot may be outdated, be sure to download the latest version):


https://github.com/rigelminer/rigel



Here is also the official dev team post.


Setup with a start.bat file


Once you download the file from Assets, unzip it and in the same folder as Rigel.exe, create a start.bat file with the contents:


rigel.exe -a autolykos2 -o stratum+tcp://autolykos.unmineable.com:3333 -u COIN:YOUR_ADDRESS.WORKER_NAME
pause


Some things to consider:


You can point your workers to our port 4444 (SSL) if you are having connection issues caused by possible firewall / ISP restrictions, for this, just add the "--no-strict-ssl" param, set the pool protocol as "stratum+ssl://" and the port as "4444":


rigel.exe -a autolykos2 -o stratum+ssl://autolykos.unmineable.com:4444 -u COIN:YOUR_ADDRESS.WORKER_NAME --no-strict-ssl
pause


KHeavyHash mining is now supported, simply update the -a parameter to -a kheavyhash and set the pool URL to:

stratum+tcp://kheavyhash.unmineable.com:3333


rigel.exe -a kheavyhash -o stratum+tcp://kheavyhash.unmineable.com:3333 -u COIN:YOUR_ADDRESS.WORKER_NAME
pause


We have already added the FishHash algorithm, to join our mining pools, just update the -a param to: -a fishhash and change the pool url to: stratum+tcp://fishhash.unmineable.com:3333


rigel.exe -a fishhash -o stratum+tcp://fishhash.unmineable.com:3333 -u COIN:YOUR_ADDRESS.WORKER_NAME
pause


The Nexapow algorithm is now available, GPUs with at least 4GB VRAM are supported at this time by changing the pool url to stratum+tcp://nexapow.unmineable.com:3333 and updating the -a parameter to: -a nexapow


rigel.exe -a nexapow -o stratum+tcp://nexapow.unmineable.com:3333 -u COIN:YOUR_ADDRESS.WORKER_NAME
pause


KarlsenHash mining is now compatible, to join our pools, simply update the -a param to: "karlsenhashv2" and set the -o parameter to:

-o stratum+tcp://karlsenhash.unmineable.com:3333:


rigel.exe -a karlsenhashv2 -o stratum+tcp://karlsenhash.unmineable.com:3333 -u COIN:YOUR_ADDRESS.WORKER_NAME
pause


In order to start mining through our just added algorithm XelisHashV2, simply update the -a parameter to: -a xelishashv2 and set the -o param to:

-o stratum+tcp://xelishash.unmineable.com:3333


rigel.exe -a xelishashv2 -o stratum+tcp://xelishash.unmineable.com:3333 -u COIN:YOUR_ADDRESS.WORKER_NAME
pause


Also, be sure to change COIN, YOUR_ADDRESS and WORKER_NAME.


COIN is the coin you are mining, for example: ADA, TRX, WIN, or more. Also keep the ":" symbol between the coin and your address. YOUR_ADDRESS must be a valid address for the coin you choose, otherwise the pool will return an error, also be sure to check the supported network for some coins, like TRC20 for USDT mining (TRON address). Your WORKER_NAME is simply any name that you would like to set for your worker, to identify it in the website.


Once you have the start.bat file, simply double click it, a terminal window will show up and you will be now mining! 😀
