How to setup T-Rex for GPU mining


Compatible algorithms: Etchash, Ethash, Kawpow, Autolykos, FiroPow, Octopus


Download the mining files


In order to mine with your GPU you can use T-Rex, simply download it from here (official link):


https://github.com/trexminer/T-Rex/releases



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 t-rex.exe, create a start.bat file with the contents:


t-rex.exe -a etchash -o etchash.unmineable.com:3333 -u COIN:YOURADDRESS.WORKER_NAME -p x
pause


Some things to consider:


If your GPU meet the minimum memory for Kawpow mining (6GB of memory) you can join our Kawpow pool, just update the -a parameter to: -a kawpow and set the -o param to: kp.unmineable.com:3333


You can also join our new Ethash pool (ETHW based) if your GPU meet the minimum requirement (6GB of memory):


t-rex.exe -a ethash -o ethash.unmineable.com:3333 -u COIN:YOURADDRESS.WORKER_NAME -p x
pause


Kindly note that profitability is not the same as it was before The Merge. Also, because of the current ETHW high price volatility, expected daily rewards will vary.


The Autolykos algorithm is also now available, GPUs with at least 3GB VRAM are supported at this time by changing the pool url to autolykos.unmineable.com:3333 and updating the -a parameter to: -a autolykos2


t-rex.exe -a autolykos2 -o autolykos.unmineable.com:3333 -u COIN:YOURADDRESS.WORKER_NAME -p x
pause


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

firopow.unmineable.com:3333:


t-rex.exe -a firopow -o firopow.unmineable.com:3333 -u COIN:YOURADDRESS.WORKER_NAME -p x
pause


You can also point to our port 4444 (SSL) if your are having connection issues caused by possible firewall / ISP restrictions, just set the -o parameter to:


stratum+ssl://firopow.unmineable.com:4444


And add the parameter "--no-strict-ssl" after the "-p x" param:


t-rex.exe -a firopow -o stratum+ssl://firopow.unmineable.com:4444 -u COIN:YOURADDRESS.WORKER_NAME -p x --no-strict-ssl
pause


We have already added the Octopus algorithm, to join our mining pools, just update the -a param to "-a octopus" and change the pool url to:

stratum+ssl://octopus.unmineable.com:4444:


t-rex.exe -a octopus -o stratum+ssl://octopus.unmineable.com:4444 -u COIN:YOURADDRESS.WORKER_NAME -p x
pause


Also, be sure to change COIN, YOURADDRESS 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. YOURADDRESS 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! 😀


You can follow your progress in the website, by going into the Address section of the coin you are mining.


For an easier configuration, we recommend trying our wizard for the creating a .bat/.sh file. 🧙‍♂️
