After leaving the development in May 2020, the Telegram team transferred almost the entire available emission (98.55% of the coins) to Proof-off -work Givers -Special smart contracts from which anyone can get Ton coins.

As in the early stages of development Bitcoin and Ethereum, you can even minute on home computer, for this, it is enough to start special software, the higher the performance of your equipment, the higher the probability of obtaining coins. On average miners receive from 200 up to 1200 ton per month on one video card is about much higher than the eth mining yield.

If you don't have Ton wallet yet, you can download it on the official website And create your own address, then move on to setting mining.

Let's move on to the setting, and at the end of the article you will find answers to all frequently asked questions.

Toncoin mining on Windows

? Video Instructions ›

First of all, you need to determine the manufacturer of your video card, for this, open device Manager, and then the tab Video adapters.

Nvidia

1. Install actual drivers with CUDA support By this link.

2. Download the archive minertools-cuda-windows-x86-64.zip of this link.

3. We unpack the archive and add to its contents a file with a current network configuration Global.config.jsonwhich can be downloaded From here.

4. Then you need to download run_config.ini and run_cuda.bat, for this, go By this link And download the zip archive, as shown in the screenshot. After that, we take the two of the above file from the archive and add them to the overall folder.

5. Open run_config.ini and replace in the first line Giver_address to auto.

In the second line, instead of My_address End The address of your wallet, as a result, the document should take the following view:

Giver_addr = Auto my_addr = EQDCH6VT0MVVP0BBYONPGB51NMPNOJXFQWG54XOIAS5Y BOOST_FACTOR = 64 Config_file = Global.config.json Use_log = Y Log_file = miner_log.txt test_time = 10

6. Make sure all These files are in one folder, as in a screenshot below.

7. Run the file run_cuda, If everything was done correctly, you will see a window as in a screenshot below.

8. After the completion of synchronization, mining will begin, the coins found will be accrued to the address indicated in the 5th step. Profit !!!

AMD

1. Install relevant drivers with OpenCl support By this link.

2. Download the archive minertools-opencl-windows-x86-64.zip of this link.

3. We unpack the archive and add to its contents a file with a current network configuration Global.config.jsonwhich can be downloaded From here.

4. Then you need to download run_config.ini and run_opencl.bat, for this, go By this link And download the zip archive, as shown in the screenshot. After that, we take the two of the above file from the archive and add them to the overall folder.

5. Open run_config.ini and replace in the first line Giver_address to Auto.

You can choose Giver with the lowest difficulty on the page ton.org/mining

In the second line, instead of My_address End The address of your wallet, as a result, the document should take the following view:

Giver_addr = Auto my_addr = EQDCH6VT0MVVP0BBYONPGB51NMPNOJXFQWG54XOIAS5Y BOOST_FACTOR = 64 Config_file = Global.config.json Use_log = Y Log_file = miner_log.txt test_time = 10

6. Make sure all These files are in one folder, as in a screenshot below.

7. Launch run_opencl.bat, If everything was done correctly, you will see a window as in a screenshot below.

8. After the completion of synchronization, mining will begin, the coins found will be accrued to the address indicated in the 5th step. Profit !!!

Linux

To configure mining on Linux OS use This instruction.

How to check that everything works?

Download the utility GPU-Z - after installation, we start and go to the sensors tab (Sensors), select the desired card from the list from below, look at the parameter GPU Loadif he is in the area 100% - Map miner.

How to calculate the yield of mining in Ton?

The easiest way to use a dynamically updated formula from @Tonminerbot - Launch the bot and go to the section ? Profit Estimation, below you will see the formula for the calculation of the profit per day, substitute your hashrate at the beginning of the formula, in our case it is 0.14, the following formula will turn out: (0.14 / 18 367) X 197 037 = 1.5 Ton, we get approximately 45 Ton per month. It is important to remember that mining occurs only 100 Ton, so according to the calculations we can smile 100 Ton in 2 months. It is important to remember that these are approximate calculations, very often people get 100 Ton immediately after launch, even on weak video cards.

Disassembly of the file run_config.ini

• Giver_addr - the address of the giver that you minute can be replaced for one of the indicated by this page, we advise you to choose the one with the lowest complexity (highlighted on the right)
• My_addr - The address of your wallet, to which the reward will come, if you do not have a wallet yet, download it is there.
  You need to specify only the address received in your wallet, do not indicate the addresses of exchanges and trading floors.
• GPU_ID - The serial number of the video card indicates which video card will be used in mining, is described in more detail in the item below.
• Boost_Factor - here we set the number recommended after passing the test in the file Test_cuda.bat or Test_opencl.bat. More details were dismantled in the next paragraph.
• Config_file - The name of the global network configuration file. Please note that the specified name matches the file name in the folder. If you have your own LiteServer You can specify it in the file.
• Use_log - a parameter for turning on logging. If “N” is indicated, the entire course of the work will be displayed on the command line. If it is necessary to save the entire course of work in the file for further study, set this parameter equal to “Y”.
• Log_file - The name of the log file, when the logistics is on. For different video cards, different names are needed (for example log_3060.log. log_1050.log) in order to avoid errors with the simultaneous work of miners.
• Test_Time - time in seconds to test one of the parameter Boost_Factor, For a more accurate calculation from the point below, you can increase this parameter before 30, at the same time, the test time will increase accordingly.

Determine the optimal Boost_Factor

Run the file Test_cuda.bat for nvidia, Test_opencl.bat For AMD, testing will begin, which will last several minutes. As a result, you will see the recommended Boost_Factor parameter, which you can specify in the file run_config.iniThe detailed analysis of which is in the item above.

In the screenshot above the optimal boost_Factor - 16384, below we can see the hashrate of your card, in this case 0.14 gh/s.

We launch several video cards for mining Toncoin

If you have several video cards, you need to edit the file to start tests on them run_config.ini, parameter GPU_ID. By default, this parameter is 0, which means the use of the first card. To launch the second, it is necessary to set this parameter = 1, for the third = 3 and so on.

You can find out the ID video cards in the task dispatcher (performance tab).
