How to mine Electroneum

Direct Mining

• Go to Electroneum's download page and scroll down to where it says "Direct Mining Software" then choose your operating system and click download. I will be using the Mac miner for this tutorial.

• Unzip the file and click on "electroneumd" to start syncing with the blockchain. It can take up to 24 hours to do so.

• Next create a wallet address. To do so click "electroneum-wallet-cli" and follow the steps to create a wallet.

• To start mining in "electoneumd" type "start_mining <wallet_address> <number_of_threads>".

• Congratulations, you are now mining Electroneum! To stop the miner type "stop_mining" and you can type "help" for more options.

. Pool Mining

The best way to mine for Electroneum is to do so with a mining pool. There are many choices with varying pool fees, donation fees and locations. To help reduce latency, choose a pool that's in a location near you.
