Disclaimer

The public full nodes (fullnode.quarkchain.io and fullnode2.quarkchain.io) are only for the novices. You do not require to maintain a full cluster node, but we cannot guarantee or promise any service availability and security for these nodes. If you have several mining machines, we strongly recommend that you run a cluster by yourself to guarantee the security and mining efficiency.

Updates

Support getWork with specified coinbase address QuarkChain/pyquarkchain#702

Notes

If you download the binary code from release and use the CUDA GPU, please use the following command line,

ethminer -U http://$CLUSTER_IP:38391 --shard-id $SHARD_ID --cuda-devices $GPU_ID --farm-recheck $TIME --coinbase $COINBASE_ADDRESS

• CLUSTER_IP defines the IP for the Quarkchain cluster. If you want to try the one button quick mining, you can use fullnode.quarkchain.io or fullnode2.quarkchain.io.
• --shard-id defines one specify shard to mine. shard id 1, 10001, 20001, 30001, 40001, 50001 are Ethash.
• --cuda-devices defines specify GPUs to mine.
• --farm-recheck defines check interval in milliseconds for changed work. For example 1000.
• --coinbase defines your mining coinbase address. Please use 20 bytes address generated the same way as an Ethereum address.
• -U is for the CUDA GPU and -G is for the AMD GPU.

One example for chain 1, shard 0 is

ethminer -U http://fullnode2.quarkchain.io:38391 --shard-id 10001 --farm-recheck 1000 --coinbase 0x1000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Chain	Shard	Hash Algo	Parameter for Ethminer shard ID
0	0	Ethash	1
1	0	Ethash	10001
2	0	Ethash	20001
3	0	Ethash	30001
4	0	Ethash	40001
5	0	Ethash	50001

Noted that if you want to mine multiple shards, please open multiple terminals.
