going on everyone welcome back Rabid here and today I'm coming at you with another iron fish
video on how to mine to flex pool utilizing bz minor now I do want to give a big shout out to
both flexpool and bz minor for sponsoring this video so iron fish is still currently in test
net and will be dropping to mainnet on April 20th unless a delay happens hopefully it doesn't
happen this time but Flex pool is actually paying you guys to help test their pool early so let's
have a look here to encourage testing of our iron fish pool while it is and test that phase
and allow us to stress test our software prior to the official mainnet launch we are announcing a 5
000 USD airdrop to all users who help us in testing our iron fish pool on the test net for
the next three days now probably only two days at the time leasing here I'm a little late the
rewards will be weighted meaning the more hash rate you bring during the test net the more you
will get effective starting to today April 17 16 UTC 4 P.M UTC the reward schedule is as follows
day one 1000 USD day two will be 1500 and day three will be twenty five hundred dollars rewards
will be distributed in Iron the native currency of Iron Fist shortly after it's tradable be sure
to save the wallet keys you are using on the test net you will need them to receive the rewards on
the mainnet assuming the current hash rate of 250 gigahertz a single RTX 3080 would earn 125 dollars
through these three days subject to decline with the pool hash rate growing hurry up as there is
not much time left until the mainnet launch now here's an update at the bottom this is escalating
quickly at the current hash rate of four terahash a single RTX 3080 would be earning 5 USD per day
day from this test set that doesn't mean it's going to happen live we don't know what's going
to happen when mainnet does go live but currently it's looking like about five bucks for 30 80.
that's not too bad now bz Miner is also supposed to be having an updated Miner with some improved
hash rates and efficiencies I have the early Alpha version I am going to test this versus Regal Miner
as well as SRB minor to see how they perform on a 30 70 and go from there it might be released at
the time of the release of this video or it might be coming sometime within the next day or two
we'll see what happens he is trying to put a rush on it but we're going to test this out early all
right so we're going to start with Windows here and how to set up bz minor with overclock settings
within your bat file and point it towards flexible I'm assuming everyone has a wallet already I've
done multiple node videos and stuff in the past check one of them out if you still need your
wallet there is a GUI wallet that is coming very soon and it's going to be a lot easier for most
people regardless here we are on Flex pool and all we really need out of this page here in their get
started is the address we got to point our rig to and here it is iron.fpmp.net semicolon quadruple
eight so that's all we need in this case let's jump into our Miner bat file for bz and show you
where to put everything so once you do download b z minor the first thing you're going to want to do
is come on to bzminer.exe we're going to want to run this as an administrator because we're going
to be using overclocking settings within the minor bot file for this so we're going to go down into
properties here compatibility click this check mark run this program as admin hit apply and then
okay that way every time you run your bat file it will ask for administrator purposes and then
you don't forget about it and blow something up all right so here is our bat file and by default
this is pretty much what everything looks like I do have my parameters down here that I'm going
to use for my GPU but off the get-go it's going to start mining to Hero Miner so you're going
to want to to come up here and put two semicolons like so that's going to remove that and bypass it
and skip it to the next one without the semicolon so now we want to go down to this bz minor and get
rid of them so now it's enabling everything you put down here now you can still just use this one
and then just adjust everything to your own pool I like to keep everything individual pools so you
know what's going on you can just select whatever you want if you want to swap pools you can simply
just copy everything and paste in a new one and just name it Flex pool or something if that's
something you want to do as well there's a whole bunch of different ways to do it but we're just
going to go with this way right now so we got bz miners already here by default iron fish here we
got to put in our worker address so this is your iron fish address by default it's just for zeros
I already have it in then you're going to want to put a period here and then whatever worker
name you want in my case I just went with rapid WS for my workstation and then you're going to
want to adjust this to what we just found on Flex pull so the Strat bottom to mine too we are going
iron.fpmp.net semicolon quadruple eight and then we've got to add our overclock setting so again
I will have these down in the description below so that you can just copy them over and use them
as you want but I am locking my core clock to 1305 I am oh seeing my core clock offset to 300
so I'm setting a core offset of 300 beyond the 1305 lock this drops your voltage at that point
and then we're going to OC lock our memory here at 8 10. so that's pretty much it once you are
done that you're just going to want to obviously save it you want to hit that save button hit the x
button and then bring up your actual minor config again double click on it and it will say yeah do
you want to run this admin because we already told it to ask every single time close the back one out
and there we are it'll now begin mining to flex pool with your overclock settings I'll even bring
up my actual afterburner here and you can see that we have 810 on the memory and 1305 locked
in that core clock so now you should be good to go in Windows let's jump on over to Hive OS all right
so now we're jumping into Hive OS so I'm going to show you how to set this up so here's a pretend
to be a fresh flight sheet click on flight sheet we're going to set up our coin so simply click
on it I already got iron there but you're going to want to look for iron it'll pop up there it
is now if a wall if you don't have your wallet in here just simply click on ADD wallet it'll
have iron already selected paste in your address name it whatever you want hit create you're good
to go I already have a few wallets so I'm going with node box we got to pick our pool Flex pool
is in here by default there's only one option so far as mainnet comes in and different stratums
emerge they'll probably be more options but always pick the closest for you right now worldwide I'm
assuming it just picks the closest stratum that's already for you and then obviously for our Miner
we're going to pick bz minor we're going to move into our setup minor config everything should be
here by default but if not just look for these parameters so our hash algorithm does need to say
iron fish in b z minor our wallet template again will be wallet dot worker name if you don't know
how to get that in there I'll just get rid of it and show you so we got wallet we're going to
put in our period and then just put in our worker Name by clicking there and now it's going to pull
your wallet address as well as use your rig worker name that you have set up in Hive OS I'm going to
leave this blank password blank here's your URL for your pool if that is not here it's another
simple process simply just click on it like so and that will pop up here is the overclock settings in
Hive West now if you watch the windows guide you can see a few things different here here we have
quotation marks and uh semicolon here so that end brackets actually around our overclock setting so
this is a little different than Windows but this is more of the Linux format you have to use but
regardless we got the exact same parameters in here's our locked core clock 1305 here's
our core clock offset to drop the voltage down a bit 300 and our memory lock of 810. again I will
have these down in the description as well so you can just copy and paste it in to make it a little
bit easier for you guys once that's done obviously hit apply changes and then then name your flight
sheet you don't want to have to redo this if you already have so once you're all done that hit the
update or create button depending what you're doing with your flight sheet and you should be
all good cancel that out hit the rocket ship next to the flight sheet and you are now mining iron
fish to flex pool in Hive OS let's take a look at some minor testing and see which Miner is the
best for iron fish so I'm going to do some minor testing just so everyone is aware of my overclock
settings so they're exactly the same I'm going to be going with the efficiency overclock usage on
hashrate.no so a core clock offset of 300 we're locking the core at 1305 and the memory will be
locked at 8 10 between all the miners starting off with SRB minor so right now we can see about
2.3 gigahash in the mining software at the wall we are around 90 Watts my system does use 22
Watts so we are using about 68 Watts now for a giga hash to Watt ratio that does come out to be
0.0338 gigahashes per watt of power used okay so now we're checking out Regal Miner and here
we have about 2.311 gigahash which is a little more than what SRB minor was showing us we're
doing about 85 Watts at the wall subtractor system that's about 63 Watts so we've got a little more
hash rate and a little less power that does work out to a gigahash per watt ratio of 0.0366 now we
have bz minor version 14.2.0 B4 so nbz minor we are doing 2.326 gigahash at the wall it's looking
about 85 Watts minus our system we're hanging out at 63 Watts which is about the same as Regal
Miner we do have a slight bit more hash rate which which does put us at a gigahash to Watt ratio of
0.0369 for the current winner it's not by much over Regal but it is a winner so far
all right guys so you should be up in mining two Flex pool now and collecting
some of that test that cash now if you aren't you still need a possible wallet
I will have linked down in the description the video to run your note to get your CLI
wallet thank you for watching I'll see you on the next one Rabid Out
thank you
