Mining

Mine HIDERING

RandomX is CPU-optimised — any modern processor can mine HRG. No ASICs, no GPU farms, just your CPU. Pick solo mining or the public pool below; both work today.

Requirements

Optional: enable Linux huge pages for higher hashrate — echo 1280 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/nr_hugepages. Get the binaries first on the Download page.

Public Pool

Pooled mining gives steady PPLNS payouts instead of waiting on a solo block. Point any RandomX miner (e.g. XMRig) at the HIDERING public pool. You still need a B-address to receive payouts — create one with the wallet CLI (see the Solo tab, steps 1 & 3).

One-line command (XMRig)
xmrig -o pool.hidering.org:3333 -u YOUR_HRG_ADDRESS -p x -a rx/0
config.json pool entry
// pools[] entry in your XMRig config.json
{
  "url": "pool.hidering.org:3333",
  "user": "YOUR_HRG_ADDRESS",
  "pass": "x",
  "rig-id": "rig1"
}

Replace YOUR_HRG_ADDRESS with your own B-address. Watch your worker and the pool hashrate live at the stats API above.

01

Download, verify, and extract

Grab the latest release (v2.0.3) from the Download page. Download the archive and the matching .sha256 into the same folder, then run the three commands below. Pick the archive for your platform: hidering-linux-x64.tar.gz, hidering-macos-arm64.tar.gz, or hidering-windows-x64.zip.

# 1. Verify the archive (must print: OK)
sha256sum -c hidering-linux-x64.tar.gz.sha256

# 2. Extract
tar -xzf hidering-linux-x64.tar.gz

# 3. Move into the extracted folder
cd hidering-linux-x64/

Windows: use right-click → Extract All on the .zip instead of tar. You'll use ./hideringd (node) and ./hidering-wallet-cli (wallet) from this folder.

02

Launch the daemon & sync

Start the daemon. It connects to seed nodes and syncs automatically. Keep this terminal open while mining.

# Run from the hidering-linux-x64/ folder
./hideringd \
  --add-priority-node seed1.hidering.org:19740 \
  --add-priority-node seed2.hidering.org:19740

Wait for: You are now synchronized with the network.

03

Create your wallet

Open a second terminal (leave the daemon running) and cd into the same folder. Your address starts with B. Write down the 25-word seed phrase and keep it offline — without it your HRG cannot be recovered.

# Create a new wallet
./hidering-wallet-cli --generate-new-wallet my-wallet

# Or open an existing wallet
./hidering-wallet-cli --wallet-file my-wallet
04

Start mining

Inside the wallet CLI, launch the miner. Replace 4 with the number of CPU threads to allocate.

start_mining 4

Each block = 42.86 HRG credited to your wallet.

05

Stop mining & check balance

Stop any time from inside the wallet CLI. Mined HRG unlocks after 60 confirmations (~2 hours).

stop_mining # stop the miner
balance # view balance + unlocked
exit # close wallet safely
06

Send HRG to another wallet

Once your balance is unlocked, transfer HRG to any B-address. Append a ring size (48 or 64) for extra privacy.

transfer B5xxx...address 10
transfer B5xxx...address 10 64 # larger ring

show_transfers # transaction history
