Hello guys, I'm fairly new to the whole mining topic (yeah, I missed the train and stuff like that but I started mostly because of interest. I do it on my PC ;-) ). I got the Claymore Dual Miner Up and Running with my Eth Wallet and everything seems to be fine. So now I wondered about the Dual Mining feature. I struggle setting this up. What I did: - Created a wallet at https://wallet.decred.org
- Got a decred wallet address
- Searched for a decred pool
- Modified the start batch file for Claymore Miner
So the batch now looks like this: setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0 setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100 setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1 setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eu2.ethermine.org:4444 -ewal ethwallet -epsw x -ethi 1 -dpool stratum+tcp://stratum.decredpool.org:3343 -dwal decredwallet -dpsw x Claymore starts up with ETH: Authorized Setting DAG epoch #xx... DCR: Stratum connecting to ... DCR: Stratum - Connected DCR: Authorization failed : (null)Can someone help me to clarify what this means? All shares from DCR will be rejected. Thanks in advance, Zuop

Sounds like you have your Decred pool account information wrong. In the config.txt you need to add the pool and login info like this: -epool <ETH POOL>:<PORT> -ewal <ETH POOL WORKER> -epsw <WORKER PASSWORD> -dcoin dcr -dpool <DECRED POOL>:<PORT> -dwal <DECRED POOL WORKER> -dpsw <WORKER PASSWORD> -mode 1 Then in the epools.txt and dpools.txt you can specify any failover pools.

@Jamievs @Vann Thank you for the information. I was not aware I need to create a decred Account + Worker (I was using the web decred https://wallet.decred.org). Also pointing out to use the config file was helpful, as i wrote a .bat file with the commands and probably would have not used a password as for the eth pool I use "x". I have a few further questions: - Is stratum+tcp://stratum.decredpool.org:3333 the right pool for Claymore Miner? On the website there's only info about ccminer and Nicehash & sgminer.
- MyName.MyWorker is the wallet so if I would like to change decred to anything else I can do it with MyWorker + pw?
- In the config file -mode needs to be 0 for dual mode does it?
- In the epools.txt a sample uses ALLPOOLS: 1, what does this mean?
Thank you again, you helped me already, Zuop

I recommend using the epools.txt and dpools.txt so that you can setup failover pools.

Thank you again, you helped me already, Zuop For Claymore's miner you should use: stratum+tcp://stratum.decredpool.org:3344 The other stratum port 3333 is for the Nicehash and sgminer and will give you rejected shares. The worker account setting depends on the pool you use. Some pools like Dwarfpool, you use your wallet address and any password. Other pools like decredpool.org, you need to register an account on the pool and create individual workers and passwords in your account that you then setup in the miner command line or configuration file. Yes, for dual mining mode with Claymore's miner you set -mode 0 (which is also the default if not specified). The allpools settings allows the miner to use the default pools for the dev fee. You only need to set it if the pool you are mining at does not have an account for the dev fee. All the configuration options are in the Readme file. -allpools Specify "-allpools 1" if miner does not want to mine on specified pool (because it cannot mine devfee on that pool), but you agree to use some default pools for devfee mining. Note that if devfee mining pools will stop, entire mining will be stopped too.

Hi again,
thanks for the advice.
Everything was running for a complete day, but now after I modified the epools & dpools files I have a 100% rejection rate for DCR shares although at the beginning it says DCR Authorized. I can't find anything on this on the internet, can you think of anything I could do? Even when I restore the original pools file all shares rejected.
Thank you very much, Zuop

Make sure you're using the newest Claymore miner

Crazy. To close the topic:
I didn't reinstall the graphic driver like supposed (maybe this would have been an option in the next days). I change the server back to stratum+tcp://stratum.decredpool.org:3343 and created a new worker on decredpool, now it works again? That's crazy because changing the server back to 3343 was one of the first things I tried after it broke..
Nevermind, I got the help I asked for, thanks guys for helping a beginner! Really appreciate it.
Cheers Zuop

Asic start mining DCR thus the difficulty went up. So, everybody ( but not you till now) decide to stop spending energy to Dual mine DCR because you are spendinge more than what you gain So, pools recognize you haven't an ASIC e reject your connection Most of the people is now mining XVG with the 11.x Claymore dual miner

I don't understand why they put in readme.txt information about not working from 2018 mining pool.... This is gravy train :/ XVG is hopeless also.
Thx for your remarks, man.

Well Claymore miner has been around for about 6 years now. And it hasn't been updated since 2019. A lot of time those readme files initially get made, and then stuff (like new features) get added to them, but obsolete information stays. Those pools listed in the readme are just examples, made to show you the correct syntax, not necessarily to recommend a pool. If you want to dual mine, I think the only option at this point is Zilliqua.
