CoinImp

Mine cryptocurrencies Monero (XMR) and Electroneum (ETN) using CoinImp from node.js

This Project is a fork of CoinHive, which uses CoinImp instead of CoinHive to mine cryptocurrencies

New: Now you can run this miner on any stratum based pool.

New: Now you can mine Electroneum (ETN).

Need a proxy? check web-socket-proxy.

Install

npm install -g coin-imp

Usage

const CoinImp = require('coin-imp');

(async () => {
  // Create miner
  const miner = await CoinImp('7591494ad1e56601bc8358580d567b319753bc773de35ce1f0d53bb8e4b97186'); // CoinImp's Site Key

  // Start miner
  await miner.start();

  // Listen on events
  miner.on('found', () => console.log('Found!'));
  miner.on('accepted', () => console.log('Accepted!'));
  miner.on('update', data =>
    console.log(`
    Hashes per second: ${data.hashesPerSecond}
    Total hashes: ${data.totalHashes}
    Accepted hashes: ${data.acceptedHashes}
  `)
  );

  // Stop miner
  setTimeout(async () => await miner.stop(), 60000);
})();

API

• CoinImp(siteKey[, options]): Returns a promise of a Miner instance. It requires a CoinImp Site Key. The options object is optional and may contain the following properties:

  • interval: Interval between update events in ms. Default is 1000.

  • port: Port for the miner server. Default is 3002.

  • host: Host for the miner server. Default is localhost.

  • threads: Number of threads. Default is navigator.hardwareConcurrency (number of CPU cores).

  • throttle: The fraction of time that threads should be idle. Default is 0.

  • proxy: Puppeteer's proxy socket 5/4 (ie: socks5://cryptominer.now.sh).

  • launch: The options that will be passed to puppeteer.launch(options). See Puppeteer Docs.

  • pool: This allows you to use a different pool. It has to be an Stratum based pool. This object must contain the following properties:

    • host: The pool's host.

    • port: The pool's port.

    • pass: The pool's password. If not provided the default one is "x".

  • devFee: A donation to send to the developer. Default is 0.001 (0.1%).

• miner.start(): Connect to the pool and start mining. Returns a promise that will resolve once the miner is started.

• miner.stop(): Stop mining and disconnect from the pool. Returns a promise that will resolve once the miner is stopped.

• miner.kill(): Stop mining, disconnect from the pool, shutdown the server and close the headless browser. Returns a promise that will resolve once the miner is dead.

• miner.on(event, callback): Specify a callback for an event. The event types are:

  • update: Informs hashesPerSecond, totalHashes and acceptedHashes.

  • open: The connection to our mining pool was opened. Usually happens shortly after miner.start() was called.

  • authed: The miner successfully authed with the mining pool and the siteKey was verified. Usually happens right after open.

  • close: The connection to the pool was closed. Usually happens when miner.stop() was called.

  • error: An error occured. In case of a connection error, the miner will automatically try to reconnect to the pool.

  • job: A new mining job was received from the pool.

  • found: A hash meeting the pool's difficulty (currently 256) was found and will be send to the pool.

  • accepted: A hash that was sent to the pool was accepted.

Environment Variables

All the following environment variables can be used to configure the miner from the outside:

• COINIMP_SITE_KEY: CoinImp's Site Key

• COINIMP_INTERVAL: The interval on which the miner reports an update

• COINIMP_THREADS: Number of threads

• COINIMP_THROTTLE: The fraction of time that threads should be idle

• COINIMP_PORT: The port that will be used to launch the server, and where puppeteer will point to

• COINIMP_HOST: The host that will be used to launch the server, and where puppeteer will point to

• COINIMP_PUPPETEER_URL: In case you don't want to point puppeteer to the local server, you can use this to make it point somewhere else where the miner is served (ie: COINIMP_PUPPETEER_URL=https://cryptominer.now.sh)

• COINIMP_PROXY: Puppeteer's proxy socket 5/4 (ie: COINIMP_PROXY=socks5://cryptominer.now.sh)

• COINIMP_DEV_FEE: A donation to the developer, the default is 0.001 (0.1%).

• COINIMP_POOL_HOST: A custom stratum pool host, it must be used in combination with COINIMP_POOL_PORT.

• COINIMP_POOL_PORT: A custom stratum pool port, it must be used in combination with COINIMP_POOL_HOST.

• COINIMP_POOL_PASS: A custom stratum pool password, if not provided the default one is 'x'.

FAQ

Can I run this on a different pool than CoinImp's?

Yes, you can run this on any pool based on the Stratum Mining Protocol.

const CoinImp = require('coin-imp');
(async () => {
  const miner = await CoinImp('<YOUR-MONERO-ADDRESS>', {
    pool: {
      host: 'la01.supportxmr.com',
      port: 3333,
      pass: '<YOUR-PASSWORD-FOR-POOL>' // default 'x' if not provided
    }
  });
  await miner.start();
  miner.on('found', () => console.log('Found!'));
  miner.on('accepted', () => console.log('Accepted!'));
  miner.on('update', data =>
    console.log(`
    Hashes per second: ${data.hashesPerSecond}
    Total hashes: ${data.totalHashes}
    Accepted hashes: ${data.acceptedHashes}
  `)
  );
})();

Now your CoinImp miner would be mining on supportXMR.com pool, using your monero address.

You can also do this using the CLI:

coin-imp <YOUR-MONERO-ADDRESS> --pool-host=la01.supportxmr.com --pool-port=3333 --pool-pass=<YOUR-PASSWORD-FOR-POOL>

Can I mine other cryptocurrency than Monero (XMR)?

Yes, you can also mine Electroneum (ETN), you can actually mine on any pool based on the Stratum Mining Protocol and any coin based on CryptoNight.

You can go get you ETN wallet from electroneum.com if you don't have one.

const CoinImp = require('coin-imp');
const miner = await CoinImp('<YOUR-ELECTRONEUM-ADDRESS>', {
  pool: {
    host: 'etn-pool.proxpool.com',
    port: 3333
  }
});
miner.start();

Now your CoinImp miner would be mining on etn.proxpool.com pool, using your electroneum address.

You can also do this using the CLI:

coin-imp <YOUR-ELECTRONEUM-ADDRESS> --pool-host=etn-pool.proxpool.com --pool-port=3333

Which version of Node.js do I need?

Node v8+

I'm getting an Error: EACCES: permission denied when installing the package

Try installing the package using this:

sudo npm i -g coin-imp --unsafe-perm=true --allow-root

An error occured Failed to launch chrome!

Try changing chromium's executable path to /usr/bin/chromium-browser, like this:

const miner = await CoinImp('site-key', {
  launch: {
    executablePath: '/usr/bin/chromium-browser',
    args: ['--disable-setuid-sandbox', '--no-sandbox']
  }
});
