Ether-based miner

If you are an computer engineer, you maybe have to work with several PCs simultaneously. Additionally, Ethereum price is soaring high while you cannot use full performance of PCs. Let think about mining !

This topic will present how to make multiple miners for Ethereum on Ubuntu with GPU. (my version is 14.04 16bit & Geforce 1060)

1. Create an address at MyEtherWallet to receive your Ether when mining.

2. Following the tutorial or at ethermine.org to download the mining program.

   1. Download miners ethminer

   2. Extract the *.tar.gz file with command: tar xvf file-name.tar.gz
      You would see an extracted folder, in which, there is an bin program named ethminer. Please remember location of that file. Normally at: ./bin/ethminer

   3. Make a script as follow:

      export GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
      export GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
      export GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
      export GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
      export GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
      ./bin/ethminer --farm-recheck 200 -G -S eu1.ethermine.org:4444 -FS us1.ethermine.org:4444 -O [Your_Ethereum_Address].[rigname]

      You can you the other server that near your location for fast transferring data.

      North America (East): us1.ethermine.org:4444 or us1.ethermine.org:14444
      North America (West): us2.ethermine.org:4444 or us2.ethermine.org:14444
      Europe (France): eu1.ethermine.org:4444 or eu1.ethermine.org:14444
      Asia: asia1.ethermine.org:4444 or asia1.ethermine.org:14444.

      The RigName you can name any word which can distinguish between miniers (workers).
      For example of my case, it will appear on the server like this way.
      

   4. One may get problem of how to run the script as not familiar with linux. The answer is: you just need store above script by any editor (in my opinion, gedit is esiest), then using this script to change it to executive mode. chmod +x file-name-of-script

   5. The final step is: ./file-name-of-script

3. Remember that, you use unique MEW address for multiple miners to push the speed of mining.

4. At ethminer, you can change setting to return Eth amount when it reach an threshold.

This is an example example of my miners. The number is so humble.
