Review
Wildrig - is a cryptocurrency mining software that supports a large number of algorithms, including the less popular mining algorithms. Works with AMD starting with R200 series and Nvidia.
How to use Wildrig
Step 1 - Download the miner
Download Wildrig, unpack it into a separate folder and find start.bat
.
Configure a batch file for KawPow
Be sure to replace it YOUR_ADDRESS
with your wallet address. RIG_ID
replace with your own farm name. You can name the farm whatever you like, but the name must contain only Latin letters and symbols "-" and "_". The wallet must match the cryptocurrency you are mining
Here is an example Wildrig .bat file for a Beepool (Ravencoin):
wildrig.exe --print-full --algo kawpow --url stratum+tcp://rvn-pool.beepool.org:9531 --worker RIG_ID --user RKAeArXkWLNERjWo5YF3R1xFnYCwKf11sX --pass x
pause
Step 3 - Launch Wildrig
Save this batch file and then click start.bat
to start mining.

Config example for Firo (Zcoin)
STRATUM: | stratum+tcp://xzc.2miners.com |
PORT: | 8080 |
Username (wallet): | aMLjCeLBmBGEJP6dYtWEMdZZuPH4w6uFsK |
Password: | x |
This is how the WildRig batch file for Firo (Zcoin):
wildrig.exe --print-full --algo mtp --url stratum+tcp://xzc.2miners.com:8080 --worker RIG_ID --user aMLjCeLBmBGEJP6dYtWEMdZZuPH4w6uFsK --pass x
pause
This is how the WildRig batch file for Ravencoin on the Beepool will look like:
To configure a batch file for KAWPOW, we need to enter 5 commands one by one:
-
wildrig.exe
- the name of the launched file -
kawpow
- algorithm for mining -
rvn-pool.beepool.org:9531
- pool address and por -
RKAeArXkWLNERjWo5YF3R1xFnYCwKf11sX
- the wallet that will be used for mining.
Setup for NiceHash
Here is a batch file for NiceHesh:
wildrig.exe --print-full --algo kawpow --url stratum+tcp://kawpow.eu-west.nicehash.com:3385 --worker RIG_ID --user 3LZhp4g3m7YWqR4hAPrZsKWbyo7hRBmqvy --pass x
pause

Commands
--algo
or a short synonym for this command -a
- Selects the mining algorithm.
Important! Use either a long synonym --algo
or a short one -a
. You do not need to use this and that together.
Further commands will be separated by commas. First a short synonym, and then long. Remember to use only one variation.
-h, --help
- display help information and exit
-v, --version
- Display version and exit.
-c, --config \<config file path>
- Use config in JSON format instead of batch file (CMD file).
Alternatives
Versions
- implemented
firopow
- implemented
mike
- implemented support for future DAG reduction of
progpow-veil
- implemented background compilation of
progpow
kernels - fixed support gfx1034(Radeon 6500XT)
- up to 10% faster
curvehash
- support curvehash on nvidia gpu’s.
- slight speedup of curvehash for Polaris/Vega gpu’s.
- improved
heavyhash
for AMD Polaris(~1.5%), Vega(~10%), RDNA/RDNA2(~3-4%); - implemented correct message of unsupported iGPU’s on newer AMD drivers(21.5.2+);
- implemented parameter
--watchdog-script
; - fixed monitoring AMD gpu’s temperature/power/fan under Linux, and RDNA/RDNA2 on Windows.
- improved
heavyhash
up to 10% on RDNA/RDNA2 gpu’s with less power consumption. - fixed power jumps on NVIDIA gpu’s.
- added default parameters for
CMP 40/50/70/90/170 HX
andRTX A4500/5000/6000
. - improved
heavyhash
by ~80% (NVIDIA Pascal/Turing/Ampere) and 20%(AMD RDNA2). - dev-fee set to 2% on
heavyhash
for nvidia rig.
- one more round of
heavyhash
optimizations(up to 10% on some cards). - fixed duplicate nvidia gpu’s on some systems.
- fixed broken 5500/5600/5700 support(introduced in 0.30.2)
- implemented heavyhash(nvidia gpu’s need some further optimizations)
- support ssl
- slightly faster ghostrider(1-2%)
- fixed rejects on ghostrider;

- now should support gfx803(RX550 cards on newest drivers).
- fixed support different drivers for RDNA/RDNA2 gpu’s;

ghostrider
; - hints: Polaris and Vega gpu’s can boost from
--opencl-threads 2
parameter and higher intensity(like--opencl-launch 2048
). Just consider available memory on your gpu. 2048 will use 4Gb + a bit more, so 4Gb won’t work. Try lower values like 1792 or 1920
