What you need to mine LUX coin on a mining pool ?

1. Wallets.

You'll need a wallet address to receive the LUX coins mined. It is better to either create a web wallet or download the wallet according to your Operating System. There is a last crappy quick & dirty method that we don't recommend: create a wallet address on an exchange but some exchange diagree and may lost some coins.

Download the suitable version:

2. Miner Software.

2.1 For nVidia

For nVidia cards we recommand using CCminer.
You can download ccminer according to your Operating System:
CCminer 2.2.2 : https://github.com/tpruvot/ccminer/releases

Remark: some anti-virus and anti-malware may detect the miner as a virus. It is due to the fact that miners were integrated in malwares and virusses so some anti-virus detect the miner as a potentially dangerous component. We use these binaries since years: we've never encounter problems because we avoid to download any binaries and always use the offial binary release on bitcointalk or github.

3. Miner Configuration.

3.1 CCMiner
- Create a launch file (*.bat file on windows) and past this configuration :

ccminer-x64 -a phi -o stratum+tcp://pool.unimining.net:8333 -u LQH6iofaGnyHSEbBC4HGrd29v8W7BcPwzV -p c=LUX --cpu-priority=3

- If working : adapt config with your wallet.

Have a nice mining.
