Understand the project

Practical overview

When it fits

Use NBMiner when you need a command-line GPU miner for a documented algorithm and have a compatible NVIDIA setup and pool details.

Who it is for

  • GPU owners who want to configure mining against a supported coin and pool.
  • Users who can work with command-line options and provide pool and wallet or worker details.

Documented uses

  • Select a supported mining algorithm and configure a pool connection.
  • Set a wallet or worker identifier in a mining command.
  • Review GPU and driver requirements before choosing an algorithm.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

  • The documented downloads target Windows and Linux.
  • The README specifies NVIDIA driver version 410 or newer and GPU requirements by algorithm.
  • Documented features include backup pool configuration and SSL pool connections.
  • Developer fees vary by algorithm in the listed fee schedule.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Configure a GPU miner to connect to a pool

Prepare an NBMiner command using a documented algorithm, pool address and wallet or worker identifier.

Before you start

  • A Windows or Linux system with a supported NVIDIA GPU.
  • NVIDIA driver version 410 or newer, plus the compute capability and memory required for the chosen algorithm.
  • A suitable pool address and wallet or worker identifier.

Steps

  1. Choose a coin and algorithm from the README's sample usages.

  2. Select a corresponding example pool and note its protocol, host and port.

  3. Build the command using the documented pattern: nbminer -a algo -o protocol+socket_type://pool_host:pool_port -u wallet_address.worker.

  4. Use any additional pool-specific options shown in the relevant example.

Expected outcome

A configured command specifying the mining algorithm, pool connection and worker or wallet identifier.

Guide limitations

  • The README provides examples, not confirmation that a particular pool address or account remains usable.
  • Hardware eligibility depends on the documented algorithm-specific NVIDIA compute capability and memory requirements.
  • The documented commands do not establish mining profitability or expected earnings.
