Read it completely before using.

Important General Information

This guide is aimed towards Debian based Linux distributions. If you are using a different kind of distribution (eg RPM-based, like CentOS) you will need to install the dependancies using a procedure that fits your specific distribution.

There are 3 active branches in ccminer github repo: ARM (for 64bit ARM chips with AES intrinsic) Verus2.2 (standard x86-64 pc's) Verus2.2gpu (GPUs)

Note: Replace ARM in the git clone line below with the branchname above you want to use.

Procedure:

Install dependencies (specific for Debian-based distributions):

sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev libssl-dev libjansson-dev automake autotools-dev build-essential git

For GPU-miner compilation additional sources are required (Not needed for CPU or ARM):

wget http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/10.2/Prod/local_installers/cuda_10.2.89_440.33.01_linux.run
sudo sh cuda_10.2.89_440.33.01_linux.run

Download the source and compile:

git clone --single-branch -b ARM https://github.com/monkins1010/ccminer.git
cd ccminer
chmod +x build.sh
chmod +x configure.sh
chmod +x autogen.sh
./build.sh

And finally starting the miner (Change pool, address & workername to your own liking):

./ccminer -a verus -o stratum+tcp://pool.verus.io:9999 -u RVjvbZuqSGLGDm1B9BFkbHWySPKEx4tfjQ.donator -p x
