# rieMiner 0.9

rieMiner is a Riecoin miner supporting both solo and pooled mining. It was originally adapted and refactored from gatra's cpuminer-rminerd (https://github.com/gatra/cpuminer-rminerd) and dave-andersen's fastrie (https://github.com/dave-andersen/fastrie), though there is no remaining code from rminerd anymore.
rieMiner is a Riecoin miner supporting both solo and pooled mining. It was originally adapted and refactored from gatra's [cpuminer-rminerd](https://github.com/gatra/cpuminer-rminerd) and dave-andersen's [fastrie](https://github.com/dave-andersen/fastrie), though there is no remaining code from rminerd anymore.

Solo mining is done using the GetBlockTemplate protocol, while pooled mining is via the Stratum protocol. A benchmark mode is also proposed to compare more easily the performance between different computers.

Direct links to the latest official [Windows x64](https://ric.pttn.me/file.php?d=rieMinerWin64) and [Win32](https://ric.pttn.me/file.php?d=rieMinerWin32) standalone executables. Binaries built on Debian 9 with almost complete static linking also available (these should run on fresh Debian and Ubuntu installations): [Deb64](https://ric.pttn.me/file.php?d=rieMinerDeb64) and [Deb32](https://ric.pttn.me/file.php?d=rieMinerDeb32). Also note that 32 bits builds are much slower.
Find the latest binaries [here](https://github.com/Pttn/rieMiner/releases) for Linux and Windows. Note that 32 bits builds are much slower.

This README serves as manual for rieMiner, and you can also find a [PDF version](https://ric.pttn.me/file.php?d=rieMinerManual) (without build instructions). I hope that this program will be useful for you!

For other Linux, executing equivalent commands (using `pacman` instead of `apt`,...) should work.

If you get a warning after the compilation that there may be a conflict between libcrypto.so files, install `libssl1.0-dev` instead of `libssl-dev`.

### In Windows x64

You can compile rieMiner in Windows, and here is one way to do this. First, install [MSYS2](http://www.msys2.org/) (follow the instructions on the website), then enter in the MSYS **MinGW-w64** console, and install the tools and dependencies:
