Ethminer is a command-line GPU mining application for Ethash Proof of Work coins such as Ethereum and Ethereum Classic. It supports OpenCL and CUDA backends, on-GPU DAG generation, and direct stratum pool connections.
Use cases
- mine ethereum with a gpu
- mine ethereum classic with nvidia cuda
- connect to a mining pool via stratum
- benchmark gpu hashrate at a given epoch
- run a failover mining setup across pools
When to choose
- you need a free, open-source Ethash GPU miner for Linux, macOS, or Windows
- you want native stratum support without a proxy
- you mine with both AMD (OpenCL) and NVIDIA (CUDA) cards
When to avoid
- you want to mine coins not based on Ethash Proof of Work
- you need a GUI-based miner
- you need actively developed software, as Ethereum's move to Proof of Stake has ended Ethash mining
