What is PeakMiner?

PeakMiner is a high-performance GPU miner built around one goal: maximum real profit per watt. Instead of chasing raw hashrate only, our kernels are hand-tuned per GPU generation — Maxwell → Blackwell on NVIDIA and Vega → RDNA 4 on AMD — to deliver high hash at low power draw and low VRAM usage, and to keep running for weeks without a restart.

Now multi-coin: mine Pearl (PRL), BTX, CSD or Midstate (MDS) with a single binary — just switch with --coin. Stratum V1, auto-detected TLS/SSL, failover pools.

Real profit = high hashrate × high uptime − power cost. PeakMiner is optimized for all three.

✨ Key Features

• Multi-coin — Pearl (pearlhash), BTX, CSD and Midstate in one binary; switch with --coin pearl|btx|csd|midstate
• NVIDIA + AMD — tuned CUDA kernels per NVIDIA generation; AMD GPU support for CSD on Linux (Vega → RDNA 4 + Instinct)
• Peak efficiency on RTX 50xx / 40xx / 30xx / 20xx / GTX 16xx / 10xx / 900: high hash, low watt, low VRAM
• Built-in overclocking & thermal limits — per-GPU core/mem clock offsets or locked clocks, power limit (watts or %), automatic temp pause/resume, fan control (fixed or closed-loop)
• Stability first — job watchdog auto-reconnects after pool hiccups, failover pools (comma-separated), auto-detected TLS/SSL, mixed-card rigs validated across 20+ GPUs
• Luck & effort stats — see the % of expected effort per share and running luck in real time
• Zero extra setup — CUDA 12 runtime is bundled; no CUDA toolkit install needed on the rig
• Live monitoring — per-GPU hashrate, temp, fan, shares and uptime on the dashboard + built-in HTTP stats API + optional --report-stats push to pool dashboards
• Runs everywhere — Windows (.zip), Linux (.tar.gz), Docker image, HiveOS custom miner package with ready-made flight sheets

💰 Dev Fee — fully transparent

• Pearl (PRL): 2% — reduced from 3% in v2.2.0 🎉
• BTX: 3%
• CSD: 3%
• Midstate (MDS): 2% — new in v2.4.0

No hidden switching, no tricks. The fee funds ongoing development, new coin support and further kernel optimizations. You can verify fee behavior in the miner log at any time.

🚀 Quick Start

Pearl (Windows) — download the .zip, extract, edit start.bat:

Code:

peakminer.exe --url de.pearl.herominers.com:1200 --user <WALLET>.<WORKER>

Pearl (Linux) — download the .tar.gz, extract and run:

Code:

./peakminer --url de.pearl.herominers.com:1200 --user <WALLET>.<WORKER>

BTX — just add --coin btx and point at a BTX pool:

Code:

./peakminer --coin btx --user <WALLET>.<WORKER> --url btx-sg.lproute.com:8660

CSD (NVIDIA on Win/Linux, AMD on Linux):

Code:

./peakminer --coin csd --user <WALLET>.<WORKER> --url csd-ca.lproute.com:8760

Midstate (MDS) — new in v2.4.0 (Windows users: just edit peakminer-midstate.bat):

Code:

./peakminer --coin midstate --user <WALLET>.<WORKER> --url eu.lproute.com:8960

HiveOS (custom miner):

Code:

Installation URL = https://github.com/peakminer/peakminer/releases/download/v2.4.0/peakminer-2.4.0.tar.gz
Miner            = Custom -> peakminer
Coin             = pearl | btx | csd | midstate
Pool URL         = de.pearl.herominers.com:1200   (TLS/SSL auto-detected)
Template         = %WAL%.%WORKER_NAME%

Or import a ready-made flight sheet (HiveOS → Flight Sheets → Import from JSON, then set your wallet):

• Pearl: hiveos/pearl.json
• BTX: hiveos/btx.json
• CSD: hiveos/csd.json
• Midstate: hiveos/midstate.json

Docker:

Code:

docker run --rm -t --gpus all peakminer/peakminer:2.4.0 \
  --url de.pearl.herominers.com:1200 --user <WALLET>.<WORKER>

Built-in OC example (all GPUs, or per-card with an index suffix, e.g. --gpu-core0):

Code:

peakminer --gpu-core 150 --gpu-power 70% --gpu-temp-stop 70

Optional extra flags:

Code:

--devices 0,1        # mine on a GPU subset (default: all)
--legacy-auth        # standard Stratum V1 array authorize
--slice-secs 0.25    # fresher jobs at slightly higher CPU
--api-port 4068      # stats API port
--report-stats       # push rig telemetry to stats-enabled pool dashboards (off by default)

Why has the graphical interface shifted, and why is it only displayed in black and white it's on Windows some of the rigs colorul some of them only black and white )
