By default or if in doubt which share difficulty to choose, choose the lower one. We recommend the high share difficulty if you mine with more than 500 GPU's. If you mine using Nicehash you should always choose the high share difficulty. Share difficulty doesn’t affect miner rewards. Read more.
For mining ETC coin choose algorithm: ETCHash
Step 1 - Create a wallet
You could receive payouts in Bitcoin (BTC), Toncoin (TON) or Ethereum Classic (ETC). Payout fees in BTC and TON are low (less than $0.2 and $0.02 respectively), payouts in ETC are absolutely free ($0). Read our post Get Paid in Bitcoin for Altcoin Mining.
For each of the coins you could use a desktop or mobile wallet or generate an address on a crypto exchange.
- For BTC we recommend official Bitcoin wallet for desktop, Guarda for mobile, and exchanges Binance (choose Bitcoin SegWit chain), Gate.io or KuCoin.
- For TON we recommend the official Telegram wallet or Tonkeeper.
- For ETC we recommend Trust Wallet for mobile, and exchanges Binance (choose Ethereum Classic chain), Gate.io or KuCoin.
Step 2 - Download mining software
Quick start - Download ready to go version of the GPU Miner (archive password - 2miners).
For Nvidia GPU's we recommend T-Rex (Guide - How to use T-Rex) or GMiner (Guide - How to use GMiner).
For AMD GPU's we recommend lolMiner (Guide - How to use lolMiner) or GMiner (Guide - How to use GMiner).
Step 3 - Edit the bat file
Use YOUR_WALLET_ADDRESS that you've created on Step 1.
