How to mine StealthCoin (XTS) on Windows 7

You will need a Windows platform and AMD graphics in order to successfully mine StealthCoin. First you must download a wallet for Windows from one of the links above under the Resources section. After installing the wallet wait for it to synchronize with the network. Once the wallet has been synchronized download the sph-sgminer_x13mod from this link

. Then once you download the file extract it and open sgminer.conf Edit your pool, username and password. If you are using the official StealthCoin pool: http://xst.argakiig.us

 then your stratum URL would be: stratum+tcp://xst.argakiig.us:3032 username would be your StealthCoin address and the password can be anything. The pool takes 60 blocks to confirm at which point you need a minimum balance of 10 xst and the pool pays you.

Fore reference purposes my mining rigs are running R9 290 Tri-X by Sapphire. By using stock settings I was able to push out 2.3 Mhs per card on average. The computer was still usable and the stock settings seem to be stable.

 

These are my settings in sgminer.conf:

“intensity” : “18”,
“worksize” : “256”,
“kernel” : “x13mod”,
“lookup-gap” : “2”,
“thread-concurrency” : “8192”,
“shaders” : “0”,
“gpu-threads” : “4”,
“gpu-engine” : “0-0”,
“gpu-fan” : “0-0”,
“gpu-memclock” : “0”,
“gpu-memdiff” : “0”,
“gpu-powertune” : “0”,
“gpu-vddc” : “0.000”,
“temp-cutoff” : “95”,
“temp-overheat” : “85”,
“temp-target” : “75”,
“api-mcast-port” : “4028”,
“api-port” : “4028”,
“expiry” : “28”,
“failover-switch-delay” : “60”,
“gpu-dyninterval” : “7”,
“gpu-platform” : “0”,
“log” : “5”,
“no-pool-disable” : true,
“queue” : “1”,
“scan-time” : “7”,
“tcp-keepalive” : “30”,
“temp-hysteresis” : “3”,
“shares” : “0”,
“kernel-path” : “/usr/local/bin”

The room that my mining rigs are in seems to stay much cooler. The X13 is a very efficient algorithm that uses the cards in an efficient and elegant way. If you are looking for a progressive and an anonymous coin StealthCoin is your best bet. It’s price has been rising on Bittrex so keep an eye out for StealthCoin and maybe consider hopping on the XTS train before its too late.
