ZCR (ZCore) Mining Tutorial

ZCore, referred to as ZCR, is a digital currency that uses the lyra2Z algorithm for mining. It has no ICO, no pre-mining, is ASIC-resistant, and can be mined using CPUs and GPUs. Because it has the same algorithm as XZC (XZC), the same mining software can be used.

1. Get the wallet address

Like all other digital currency mining processes, you first need a wallet address to receive ZCR mining income. You can obtain it through the following ways:

Full Node Wallet:

https://zcore.cash/  

Light wallet:

【ZCR App 】

Exchange:

【 Graviex 】

Note: Different countries have different regulatory policies on exchanges, and the relevant risks are borne by the miners themselves.

2. Get mining software

ZCR can be mined using CPU and GPU. The mining software can be obtained from the following link:

F2Pool Version (CPU & NVIDIA & AMD):

【Baidu Netdisk】

【Mega Cloud Disk】

Original miner software:

CPU Miner Software:

https://github.com/tpruvot/ccminer/releases   (tpruvot version)

AMD Miner Software:

( It is recommended to download the original miner software and configure the mining parameters according to the tutorial)

3. Set the parameters in the mining software and start mining

3.1 Nvidia Mining Card

Download the N card mining software, select "Extract files to current folder", and find the "start.bat" file, as shown below:

Right-click "start.bat" and select Edit. In the start.bat file, set the parameters as follows:

ccminer-x64 -a lyra2z -o stratum+tcp://zcr.f2pool.com:5745 -u wallet_address . worker_name -px

As shown in the figure below. Check the ZCR mining pool address and set the miner's own ZCR coin address and miner number. If there are multiple machines, the miner number is used to distinguish different machines. The wallet address and miner number are separated by an English period ".". When modifying, only change the corresponding characters. Spaces and punctuation cannot be deleted. After the modification is completed, click Save.

The specific parameters are described as follows:

ccminer-x64 This means you want to run the mining software in the folder directory

-a is the mining algorithm to be called

-o is to set the mining pool server address and port number to be linked. The address can be an IP or domain name. Here the default is to fill in the F2Pool mining pool address and port number stratum+tcp://zcr.f2pool.com:5745

-u is the mining username and worker number. This is of utmost importance. If you fill it in incorrectly, you will not get any mining income. Here you need to set a ZCR wallet address and worker number. Please replace the wallet address with your own wallet address for formal mining. The following parameters do not need to be modified.

After setting the mining parameters, save and exit the "start.bat" file, and double-click to run this file to start mining.

3.2 A card mining

After obtaining the mining software, decompress the mining software and find the "start.bat" file.

Right-click "start.bat", select Edit, open the file, and set the mining parameters as follows:

sgminer.exe –no-submit-stale –kernel Lyra2z -o stratum+tcp://zcr.f2pool.com:5745 -u wallet_address . worker_name -p password -w 16 -I 16

As shown in the figure below, check the ZCR mining pool address and port number, and set your own ZCR receiving address and miner number.

Then, save and run the "start.bat" file to start mining.

Note: If you get the miner software from the original link, the original software calls the Lyra2h algorithm. If it does not work, change the called algorithm to Lyra2z and it will run normally.

3.3 CPU Mining

After getting the CPU mining software, unzip the file and find "start.bat".

Right-click the "start.bat" file, select Edit, open the file, and set the parameters as follows:

cpuminer-avx2 -a lyra2z -o stratum+tcp://zcr.f2pool.com:5745 -u wallet_address . worker_name -p password

As shown in the figure below, replace your own wallet address and save the file.

Note : The bat file selects "cpuminer-avx2" as the target application by default to run mining. Miners can read the description in "README" carefully, test the mining speed of other applications, and choose the application that best matches their CPU for mining. Choose a different way to run the program: replace "cpuminer-avx2" with the file name of the program to be run. As shown below:

4. Mining machine monitoring and profit viewing methods

To check the running status and daily income of the ZCR mining machine, you can visit the official website of F2Pool (https://www.f2pool.com), enter the wallet address in the search bar in the upper right corner, and click View to view the mining machine status and income.

You can also monitor the mining machine and view the income through the F2Pool APP (click here to download). On the APP login page, select "Quick View" in the lower right corner and enter the wallet address set in the mining software.
