Kaspa Mining β€” Miners and Pools

Kaspa is currently the fastest proof-of-work, mineable coin while remaining decentralized. The blockDAG architecture with rapid block rates allows more mining decentralization and enables effective solo mining at lower hashrates.

KASPA MINING SOFTWARE

Mining software is a type of program used to extract cryptocurrency or other digital assets through a process called mining. The software connects to a blockchain network and performs complex mathematical calculations to validate transactions and add new blocks to the blockchain. In return, the miner can earn block rewards for securing the network.

Here are some popular miner software options from Kaspa.org.

KASPAMINER β€” Linux/Windows OSs and Nividia/AMD GPUs

LOLMINER β€” Linux/Windows OSs and Nividia/AMD GPUs

BZMINER β€” Linux/Windows OSs and Nividia/AMD GPUs

SRBMINER β€” Linux/Windows OSs and only CPUs

TEAM RED MINER β€” Linux/Windows OSs and only AMD GPUs

GMINER β€” Linux/Windows OSs and only Nvidia GPUs

KASPA MINING POOLS

Data from https://miningpoolstats.stream/kaspa

A mining pool is a group of cryptocurrency miners who combine their computing power to increase their chances of solving a cryptographic puzzle and earning a reward. In a mining pool, participating miners split the rewards proportionally according to the total computational power they contribute.

In solo mining, individual miners compete with each other to solve the puzzle and earn the reward. However, the odds of successfully solving the puzzle are low, especially with the increasing difficulty of the network. By pooling their resources, miners in a mining pool can increase their chances of successfully solving the puzzle and, as a result, earn more rewards.

Here are some popular pool options from Kaspa.org.
