garlicoin.orgMine Garlicoin
Garlicoin uses the Allium algorithm, so ordinary GPUs and CPUs can mine it. Here are live network numbers, a calculator, and who is finding blocks right now.
Mining calculator
Enter your miner's Allium hashrate. Results use the live network hashrate and price, and assume both stay the same.
- Share of the network –
- GRLC per day –
- GRLC per month –
- Value per day –
- Electricity per day –
- Average time to find a block alone –
Pools pay small amounts often, minus their fee. Solo mining pays the full block reward, but only when you find a block.
Start mining
- Get a Garlicoin address from your wallet. See getting started.
- Pick a pool from the list below and follow its setup guide. Most use your GRLC address as the username.
- Run an Allium miner such as cpuminer-opt for CPUs, or a GPU miner your pool recommends.
Mining solo
Run your own node (see run a node) with server=1 and RPC login details in garlicoin.conf, then point a getblocktemplate-capable miner at it with your address as the payout. You keep the whole reward, but at low hashrates a block can take a long time to find.
Who found blocks in the last 24 hours
Pools usually tag the blocks they find. We read the tag on every block from the last day: 2,102 blocks, updated 18:17 UTC.
zpool found 94% of blocks. When one pool controls most of the hashrate, the network depends on it staying honest and online. If you mine, choosing a smaller pool or mining solo makes Garlicoin more robust.
| Pool | Blocks | Share |
|---|---|---|
| zpool | 1,974 | |
| No tag (solo or private) | 62 | |
| Unnamed YiiMP pool | 56 | |
| Unnamed Miningcore pool | 9 | |
| PowerPool | 1 |
"Unnamed" pools run common pool software but don't put their name in the block. Untagged blocks are usually solo miners. We list pools only by what the blocks say and don't vouch for any of them. Also available as mining.json.
