How to mine Monero (XMR) on RandomX algorithm<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

On November 30, after the hard fork, Monero (XMR) will work hard on block 1978433 to switch to the new RandomX algorithm. The upcoming fork will change the current CryptoNight R mining algorithm to the new Random X PoW algorithm, essentially transferring the coin mining to the CPU.<\/p>\n\n

There are already several miners mining coins using the RandomX algorithm, which you can use now:<\/p>\n\n

  • Download XMR-STAK-RX v1.0.1 \u2014 RandomX (Moner XMR)<\/a><\/noindex><\/li>
  • Download XMRig v5.1.0 RandomX (Monero XMR)<\/a><\/noindex><\/li>
  • Download SRBMiner-MULTI 0.1.7 RandomX (Monero XMR miner)<\/a><\/noindex><\/li><\/ul>\n

    XMR-STAK-RX<\/strong> <\/h2>\n\n

    The developers of the XMR-STAK<\/strong> program released the initial version to support the RandomX algorithm – the xmr-stak-rx<\/strong> program.<\/p>\n\n

    Download and configure XMR-STAK-RX:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n
    • Download XMR-STAK-RX v1.0.1 \u2014 RandomX (Moner XMR)<\/a><\/noindex><\/li><\/ul>\n

      In the new version there is no commission for development, it will probably be added later. This release only supports various variants of the RandomX algorithm.<\/p>\n\n

      How to run RandomX mining on XMR-STAK-RX?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n
      1. Download and unzip precompiled binary (.EXE) files to a new folder<\/li>
      2. Change the currency parameter in pools.txt to “currency”: “randomx”, example pool configuration<\/li>
      3. Run xmr-stak-rx via bat file<\/li><\/ol>\n

        Launch XMR-STAK-RX\r\n<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n

        You can run the program through the bat file too:<\/p>\n\n

        \"xmr-stak-rx<\/a><\/noindex><\/figure>\n

        Example batch file settings:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n
        xmr-stak-rx.exe -o xmr-eu.dwarfpool.com:8050 -u 44tLjmXrQNrWJ5NBsEj2R77ZBEgDa3fEe9GLpSf2FRmhexPvfYDUAB7EXX1Hdb3aMQ9FLqdJ56yaAhiXoRsceGJCRS3Jxkn.5d3c802ee0f8e12e4eb9792722b7816a42178aa29ef7477c138ddb940c55648d.rig1 -p x --noCPU\npause<\/code><\/pre>\n\n

        If you do not want to mine Monero \/ Random X after forking on video cards, run xmr-stak-rx once before the fork and let the miner create amd.txt and \/ or nvidia.txt configurations. Edit both files and set “gpu_threads_conf”: [] to disable the video cards and leave only the processor.<\/p>\n\n

        If the application does not start properly, make sure the Visual Studio libraries are installed. You can download them from https:\/\/go.microsoft.com\/fwlink\/?LinkId=746572<\/a><\/noindex><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
