A beginner Bzminer and acc-pool tutorial.<img src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1050/1*u_oD8_jLFjXCAzwcq57rjw.png" /><h2 id="header-0">Wallet</h2>Before you can start mining Kaspa, you will need a wallet to receive your rewards. Three options are available, and detailed information can be found here: <a href="https://medium.com/kaspa-currency/kaspa-wallets-non-custodial-wallet-options-for-kas-8b473ff01c60" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://medium.com/kaspa-currency/kaspa-wallets-non-custodial-wallet-options-for-kas-8b473ff01c60</a>.The easiest option is to use the web wallet at: <a href="https://wallet.kaspanet.io/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://wallet.kaspanet.io</a>Click on “Create a new wallet” and follow the steps. Ensure you use a strong password and store your secret phrase safely(ex. writing it down on paper and securing it). Now that you have a wallet, you should also have a Kaspa address(Receive Address) starting with: “kaspa:********”<img src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1050/0*3TSRiiR78HEyfwJO" />Kaspa Web Wallet<h2 id="header-1">Miner Software</h2>Download the latest version of <a href="https://github.com/bzminer/bzminer/release" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bzminer </a>for Windows from the official GitHub repository: <a href="https://github.com/bzminer/bzminer/releases" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://github.com/bzminer/bzminer/release</a>. At the time of writing this tutorial, the newest version was v13.2.1. Extract the .zip file anywhere you prefer.Now we need to configure Bzminer: Open the BZminer folder for your operating system.<img src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1050/0*DVUi7GOjKaUjSyas" />Bzminer Download FilesSeveral prewritten windows batch files can be used to mine different coins. We need to edit the Kaspa one by opening it in a text editor like Notepad. You can also try right-clicking the Kaspa file and selecting edit.<img src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1005/0*EieFKV719e29gXL0" />Bzminer and Batch FilesOur pool of choice for this tutorial is <a href="https://kaspa.acc-pool.pw/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">acc.pool</a>: <a href="https://kaspa.acc-pool.pw/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://kaspa.acc-pool.pw/</a> We need to uncomment the line that corresponds to it (by deleting the “::” symbols).You also have to replace “kaspa:00000” with your own wallet address we just created in the web wallet.<img src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1050/0*WHAe2DT1B3KcaNw4" />Editing the Batch FileIf desired, you can adjust other settings, such as intensity and GPU memory allocation, but this is recommended for more advanced users.Save the modification(overwrite if you wish or save as new) and close the text editor.<h2 id="header-2">Start Mining</h2>Now we can finally start mining! Double-click on the Kaspa file we just modified. Windows will ask if you really want to execute this program. Allow it, and Bzminer should start! You will see a Bzminer watchdog window similar to this:<img src="https://miro.medium.com/v2/resize:fit:1050/0*qrrz96YJ6eEl0cvE" />This example is just a dummy miner, but you should see (and hear) the GPU power and temperature increase. After some time, you will see accepted shares. You can monitor your mining progress in this window and your earnings on your pool’s website and wallet. To stop the program, press “Ctrl&#43;C” and then press “Y” for “yes.” You can also close the window but verify that the GPU has stopped working.<h2 id="header-3">Disclaimers</h2><ul><li>Mining cryptocurrency involves significant risk, and it is essential to understand the potential rewards and risks before investing time and resources into mining.</li><li>Cryptocurrency mining requires a lot of power and generates a lot of heat, increasing your electricity bill and putting additional strain on your hardware.
