TTMiner 2.1.17. Guide for mining on the ProgPOW algorithm.
Program for video cards of the Nvidia family. Supports three hashing algorithms. It is mainly used for mining on the ProgPOW algorithm. Today we will talk about TTMiner, it will be very interesting!
System requirements
- Windows 7, 8.1 and 10 64-bit
- Nvidia Graphics Cards
- Nvidia driver version 411.31 or later
- May require the Visual C++ Redistributable Package for Visual Studio 2017.
Peculiarities:
- farm management from a single computer
- video card performance monitoring
- hashrate/sec performance evaluation
- switching a farm or just one video card to other pools or another coin within a few seconds
- small amount of memory and processor power consumed
- Supports CUDA 9.2 and CUDA 10.0
Fast start
To quickly start mining cryptocurrencies, you need:
- Download program
- Unzip it to any convenient place (the miner is downloaded as a zip archive and does not require installation)
- Change wallet to your
After downloading the program, you will find ready-made examples of customized .bat files for mining and instructions in Russian.
список файлов
For a quick start, just open the file with the .bat extension in any text editor and replace the wallet with your own. Below we will tell you how to do this, as well as how to fine-tune the program to suit your needs.
So, let’s start editing the batch file – we need to change the wallet address and set up some other parameters for your equipment. To do this, right-click on the bat file and select “Edit”.

A text document will open with command line arguments. Let’s consider what kind of commands are contained in our batch file.
Setting up a batch file
@echo off
:loop
TradeTec-MinerCmd.exe -A PROGPOW-100 -P stratum+tcp://iN5h4sGcf1BD7R1mgaqkeGWnDvAubzyEKg.rig1@bci-eu.coinblockers.com:3910 --list-devices
rem using payfrom on CoinBlockers
rem TradeTec-MinerCmd.exe -A PROGPOW-100 -P stratum+tcp://iN5h4sGcf1BD7R1mgaqkeGWnDvAubzyEKg.rig1:payfrom=5@bci-eu.coinblockers.com:3910 --list-devices
echo restart miner...
goto loop- TradeTec-MinerCmd.exe specify in the batch file which program we want to run. This file must be in the same folder as our batch file
- PROGPOW-100 specifies the algorithm of the coin we are going to mine
- iN5h4sGcf1BD7R1mgaqkeGWnDvAubzyEKg after -P stratum+tcp:// construction, specify the address of our digital wallet. It can be taken from the exchange, where the coin is traded, or set a cold wallet
- rig1 after we entered the wallet address, we put a dot and specify the name of our farm. You can use any name you want. This is needed to keep track of statistics on the pool
- bci-eu.coinblockers.com after the @ sign, specify the address of the pool.
- 3910 specifying the pool address, put a colon and specify the pool port
- –list-devices command will display all available devices for mining
These are all the necessary commands to run the program. Below is an example with payfrom (payment mode). On some pools, you can set the payout frequency. We have this example commented out by the REM command. If you remove this command, then example #2 will be used.
So we set up the program for the first run. How to run it? The process of mining cryptocurrencies is launched by double-clicking on the created or edited batch file (file with the .bat extension). So, let’s start and see what the program console writes to us.
- TradeTec-Miner program reports installed version
- Found 2 CUDA devices There are two mining devices available
- #0 PCI 0:1 GeForce GTX 1080 Ti (6.1) CoreClk 139 MHz | MemClk 495 MHz | 11264MB | SM: 28 name of the video card, set overclocking of its core and memory, available amount of video memory
- bci-eu.coinblockers.com:3910 pool, which we indicated in the batch file
- iN5h4sGcf1BD7R1mgaqkeGWnDvAubzyEKg wallet address to which mined coins will be sent
- YOUR WORKER farm name (optional)
- Use algo: ProgPoW (Programmatic Proof-of-Work) we specified the ProgPoW algorithm
- CUDA 10.0 cuda architecture that video cards run on
- Press ‘Q’ to stop mining and terminate if you press the Q key in the active miner window, the program will close
- Set nonce generation to mode: 3 – timeout: 0.00 secs. the nonce parameter is set to mode 3. More on this below
- Subscribed to bci-eu.coinbiockers.com:3910 we were able to connect to the pool
- Received new job#: d27a the pool has sent a new job for video cards
- Pool difficulty update: 0.08 GH The pool has set the difficulty to 0.08 GH.
- Worker authorized: YOUR WORKER we are authorized on the pool
- create new DAG for epoch 6 generates a DAG file for mining. Need to wait a bit
- DAG created in 2.7 seconds DAG file created in 2.7 seconds
- Accepted 86 ms. bci-eu.coinbiockers.com:3910 The pool has decided (to the ball) from our video card. The reward to the miners is paid exactly for the number of solved shares.
The miner needs about 4-5 minutes until he shows a stable hashrate. Good mining!
