HOW TO MINE

01
Set Up a BLKR Wallet

Before you mine, you need a BlackRaven wallet address to receive your rewards. Download the official wallet and generate your address. Keep your private keys offline and secured.

02
Download a KAWPOW Miner

Use any KAWPOW-compatible GPU miner. Popular options include TeamRedMiner (AMD), T-Rex Miner (NVIDIA), or NBMiner (both). Download from the official GitHub releases of each project.

# TeamRedMiner (AMD)
teamredminer -a kawpow -o stratum+tcp://POOL_ADDRESS:PORT -u YOUR_BLKR_ADDRESS.rig1

# T-Rex (NVIDIA)
t-rex -a kawpow -o stratum+tcp://POOL_ADDRESS:PORT -u YOUR_BLKR_ADDRESS -p rig1
03
Join a Mining Pool

Solo mining is possible but pool mining provides more consistent payouts. Point your miner at a BLKR-compatible pool using your wallet address as the username.

⬡  Pool listings will be published at launch — check blackraven.network for official pool announcements. Community pools are welcome to list.
04
Verify Your Rewards

Once you're connected and hashing, monitor your rewards through the pool dashboard and confirm received transactions on the BlackRaven block explorer.
