Bfgminer

Bminer is a highly optimized cryptocurrency miner that runs on modern AMD / NVIDIA GPUs. Bminer is one of the fastest publicly available miners today -- we use various techniques including tiling and pipelining to realize the full potentials of the hardware.

Bminer also comes with REST APIs to facilitate production deployments (e.g., mining farms).

Visit my Amazon store: Quick Video Guide to the BFGMiner Interface. Lots of info available online but this sums it.

  • Bminer supports mining Equihash-based coins (e.g., BitcoinGold, BitcoinZ) with 2% of devfee.
  • Bminer supports mining Ethash-based coins (e.g., Ethereum) with 0.65% of devfee. It is also possible to dual mine Ethash and Blake14r-based / Blake2s-based coins, where the devfee is 1.3%.
  • Bminer supports mining Bytom (BTM) with 2% of devfee.
  • Bminer supports mining Grin (GRIN) with 1% of devfee.

  • BFGMiner img source: freepik.com. Written in C, BFGMiner is customizable mining software that is compatible with ASIC/FPGA hardware, and that also has a monitoring feature as well as dynamic clocking and remote interface capabilities.
  • BFGminer + Futurebit Moonlander 2 I'm trying to get a pair of Futurebit Moonlander 2 ASIC sticks to Scrypt mine on NiceHash through BFGminer. They've been running at 8.5Mh/s for about 5 hours now and in that total time I've only had 7 blocks accepted.
  • Bfgminer is a fork of cgminer. Bfgminer allows the use of Get Block Template (less trust in the pool), but they're otherwise functionally the same. Improve this answer. Follow edited Feb 24 '14 at 8:46. Answered Feb 24 '14 at 6:32. User13413 user13413.

Bfgminer Setup

Quickstart¶

Bfgminer App

  • Download and extract Bminer into a folder (e.g. C:bminer or /home/bminer)
  • Depending on the coins that you want to mine, find the corresponding script in the folder. For example, the corresponding script is mine_grin29.bat (on Windows) or mine_grin29.sh (on Linux) when mining Grin using the Cuckaroo29 algorithm.
  • Change the address and account information in the script.
  • Run the script and Enjoy mining :-)
