Title: NOOB QUESTION. When using miner CLI do I put the receiving address of my wallet? Post by: syn00ack on July 12, 2019, 09:07:55 PM I just want to make sure when I'm in a mining pool and using CLI CGminer that I'm sending the payout to the right place!
For example: My electrum wallet has multiple "receiving addresses" they all start with bc1xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx. Is that what I put in as the username in cgminer? For example, is this correct? If my receiving address is bc1XXXXX, then my bat file should read: cgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://pool.ckpool.org:3333 --suggest-diff 128 -u bc1XXXXX -p x username "-u" is basically the entire receiving address in electrum wallet? And I can use any one of them since there are multiple ones? Thanks for your assistance. Title: Re: NOOB QUESTION. When using miner CLI do I put the receiving address of my wallet? Post by: AdolfinWolf on July 12, 2019, 09:14:00 PM That depends on the pool whether you can use a btc adress as your user login
Looking at the pool, it says the following: Code: (http://ckpool.org/#/) Set your username to your btcaddress with any or even no worker extension, and any password. So, any adress you control the private keys over should do. Quote username "-u" is basically the entire receiving address in electrum wallet? And I can use any one of them since there are multiple ones? yes. One thing i forgot to note: the bech32 adresses (bc1xxxxxx), are *relatively* new. It could be that ckpool doesn't recognize them yet..? In which case you should probably create a nested electrum segwit wallet. You can still create these P2SH wallets using a quite unorthodox method described here -> https://bitcoinelectrum.com/creating-a-p2sh-segwit-wallet-with-electrum/ EDIT: I do think they support native segwit by the looks of this post -> Dumb question but does this pool support overt ASICBOOST? Yep, dumb question. :) This pool was the pioneer of overt ASIC Boost. And native segwit addresses :) So you shouldn't have to do all of the above. Title: Re: NOOB QUESTION.

I ran my batch file with the BC1 address and it looks like it connected. It says "Pool message: Authorised, welcome to ckpool.org bc1xxxxxxxxxxx" Since it says authorized and not rejected, I'm assuming its a valid address for ckpool and that ckpool can accept segwit wallet addresses for payout? Here is the CLI copy paste: Connected to pool.ckpool.org diff 10K with stratum as user bc1qhafs8tl4nnuux0udhn05mmz8y3edn7zzfegpfs292k0xkm69gnfqpfl8 Block: b9ed9d81...

I'm not exactly an expert on this though. |
