Orange Pi 5: How To Mine VerusCoin

[@leolang8128]

just installed my 8th orangepi5 with this video - still a great video

[@DMinerzChannel]

Over here we have a orange pi 5 , 1.8 watts on here!! And a mad production ova there!!

[@kimyona5274]

Really enjoyed your introduction of the Orange PI 5. Informative, and very well made. It's a great device, and the price-performance ratio is awesome.

[@trichert7360]

Something fat is brewing. orangepi org is no more on the internet

[@imjamesyourenot]

Thanks for the step by step, was able to get 3 up and running. Keep up the great content!

[@DouglasHeyen]

Great vid. Keep on experimenting. This one is outside the box as well. Thank you

[@madelectronengineering]

Next I may try dero mining on it.

[@rkowalski2573]

Thanks a ton for the detailed instructions. was able to setup my first ever SBC (orangepi5) and happy hashing verus.

[@kurtm5004]

For some reason my shortcuts aren't working, that command for start on reboot saved me though. Thanks for the video! Very clear, quick and easy. Make sure to spread the hashrate!

[@leolang8128]

Grate tutorial :) I followed each and every step and now have two units mining verus coin i ordered 3 more... had an issue of ipv6 with the installed server but i enabled ipv6 and now they are hashing away

[@SiNKarnage]

You can actually have multiple Mining Pools under the same config settings. You just got to have [ "disabled": 1 ] under each of them and change the 1 to 0 for whichever pool you want the miner to mine from. This saves you the hassle of copying and pasting the pool info whenever one goes under or doesnt mine as much and you can add more ontop.

[@TheBitcoinMiner]

I love your shed that's such a good idea. I actually have the same one here just full of kids toys not miners. Awesome verus mining video. Maybe we'll see that shed full of them someday.

[@black_cat_crypto]

Great stuff. Got mine up and running!

[@RedPandaMining]

Just bought 100x Orange Pi’s… *help*

[@arigornstrider]

[@kimyona5274]

With this setup (profit ~ $37/month), you will reach ROI in approx. 21 years ;)

[@johngermain5146]

Genius, you explain the process very well too!

[@kzzspf1]

Followed your directions to get this going on a LePotato @ around 1mh. Was a fun project, just had to cut the threads to 4

[@ZaPirate]

Thank you, great video

[@RiggerBrew]

Looks like a similar chip to what is on the Turing Pi RK1. Although more spendy, you can get 4 modules into a single micro ATX main board.

[@NetworkBits]

Thank you for this top notch content. Many others in the community have taken note and are actively using your strategy, which is what led me to your video. I used your referral link, but opted for the $160 version of the Orange Pi (for the sake of extra features if I ever do something aside from Verus, I'm aware ROI is dreadfully longer now LOL). I have a few other SBCs that I'm going to test out on Verus as well. Keep up the great work!

[@FOink-jz8hu]

Thanks for the shout-out. Very good explanation! You can call me Oink, no need to stutter on the O... 😂 A couple of remarks: - My repo was originally created for my own usage, so it has my own SSH-key in it for password-less login. Replace the public SSH-key in `~/.ssh/authorized_keys` with your own SSH public key, or remove that file completely. - On the `@reboot ~/ccminer/start.sh` in crontab, you may want to add a 15 second delay, to allow the OPI to start up completely (DHCP address acquiring etc) before starting the miner: `@reboot sleep15s; ~/ccminer/start.sh`. This will avoid the initial connection errors you had, while shooting the video. - The 2nd pool you removed in the `config.json` is indeed a fallback pool. It is not required but very helpful in case your chosen pool fails (temporarily). It has a timeout, so after that it tries to return to your primary pool. Also for the 2nd pool you can choose whatever pool you want. (In fact you can add as many fail-overs as you want). - If you have multiple devices (like you have), port 4068 is the default API port. You can use the tools (on Linux!!!!) on my github to monitor (and control!!!) the miners locally without having to SSH into the device. Again: great video and thanks for the shout-out!

@FOink-jz8hu, It is people like you that keep the world turning! Awesome stuff!

[@jensjenson1505]

Cool Video, am gonna get one myself and try setting it up.

[@manoerina1873]

for quite htop you could click on f10quite area with mouse or hit q on your keyboard are standard equivalents.

[@RetroMikeTech]

💯💯💯

[@jonswain-ox1dn]

excellent guide 🙂

[@MehrAeulius]

I guess instead of buying the orange pi 5, buy vrsc coin directly is much compelling investment

[@funnyfunny6842]

Would it not be easier if you have one Orange Pi 5 setup with an SD card, to just duplicate that SD card and change the worker name to set up another? This instructional video was awesome, but i am thinking of setting up multiples and I would think that is a major shortcut

[@donpoirier1123]

Great video! Is there a more automated way to set up a small farm of the orange pi to mine verus? I'm excited to set up 10 of these to get started. thanks again for the great content.

[@IntenseGrid]

But how much are you making/day? What is payback for your $100 investment? How about the Orange pi 5 plus?

[@dylanc9275]

Hey I have been using raspberry pi but my set up is roughly the same except for a few lines. I add a code that monitors cpu usage, if it falls below 50% it reboots. Just cus mine stops mining once a month and wouldn't get back going mine are also overclocked which may be the cause of the crash. But more efficient

[@bummers]

Thanks for this video! Late to the mining scene. Any site that does mining calculation for arm proc like orange pi 5? Most sites are looking at GPU or CPUs (Intel/AMD). And btw, when you ctrl-d in the video, you are leaving the screen app in the background. You could have exited the screen app and the CCminer app will still be running when you end SSH.

[@FlyingCakes01]

you made it fun to follow lol! u earned 1 new follow

[@arigornstrider]

Running a few a03s phones, getting 4.55mh/s at 4.425w each. It's fun to play around with these more efficient and less hash options, but i couldn't imagine trying to run any sizeable farm off such small devices. It seems like a pain to admin all these tiny devices if one goes offline.

[@juggernautz]

A miner named Paperclip on YT has 100 phones mining verus & he makes over $110/ month after utility costs. Lot of work if the phones crash. But he did find a phone made for Caterpiller, yes the buldozer company and it mines quite well.

[@fullyelectric]

MEE nice to see others doing the same using the OPI5, the USB power meter I would like that unit, do you have a link? Thanks again

[@thainorstimes]

Nice video killer cooler thanks for sharing

[@Riga_Crypto]

Hi, just want to let you know that Oink just released CCminer 3.8.3-4. What about trying (in the pcie M.2 NVME slot) a mining riser adapter 4 USB ports to pcie 1X? That will be fun, because it may support up to 4 cards. As I know, there are some issues with Ubuntu graphic drivers, but it may work :). Last, but not least, big LIKE!!!!!! from me!

[@PEYAPOLSKA]

thnx everytng working nice have 2 now whaiting on my third

[@michaeldarnell571]

Hi sir, i am using windows laptop and I cannot connect to orange pi using putty - network error. any advise, please. Thank you

[@williamhoover1515]

great vid. How did the solar restart go?

[@haydenc2742]

That 73~C on the CPU is getting pretty darn hot... Still very daggum cool seeing SBC's doing bitcoin mining! Awesome! Can that app be run in a docker instance? This way it can be controlled thru portainer?

[@inanotherlife3138]

I bought orange pi 5b can you show me how to solo mine Kaspa on my own node

[@itsophishle7044]

Before anybody goes "all in" on phones,. a cell phone would earn about .01 cent per day,. and these Orange Pi's would make about .02 cents per day.. but this is at todays market prices, and assuming your electric rate is .10 cents per kwh.

[@inanotherlife3138]

What happen to my orange pi it stopped mining on luck pool

[@kaundabits]

[@benjiebarker]

Where do you get those brass rods…what are they called and measurements

[@Vlad19th]

I was able to get 7Mh/s on tablet S6 light. But it doesnt want to stay there for long, jumps up than down. Probably some proccesses in the tablet doesnt let it. Can you figure it out???

[@csills6776]

Ever have any issues with one of your orange pi's not booting? Just got mine and I've flashed ubuntu, turned it on, all the lights come on, but nothing on the display.

[@haiderali-om4vj]

This setup work with Raspberry Pi 5 ? other only work Orange Pi 5 ?

[@Vlad19th]

How to set this up and install it?

[@romeoyoukhana]

Hi, what would be the best option to power multiple units? Say anywhere between 7 - 10 without using an individual power adapter for each unit. Can someone share a link, please Thanks

[@megauti]

So, how much can you make in US $ per day with 1 Orange Pi 5 without counting any expenses?

[@jediknight2350]

so are you going to cluster them so you can run one os to run them all be nice. put 20 of them together.

[@theonewhowas7709]

oh man dude.... do you have a link for you ifixit kit? i the smaller one.. but i want that one

[@dparsh824]

I as wondering if you have try Mini ITX Motherboard 6 pi board ?

[@IDK_Mining]

So im building one … but i think the OS isnt flashing right maybe ?? Etcher says flash complete but when i remove and reinsert the sd card it doesnt pop up or anything … and after it “boots” im assuming … i cant get it to show on ip scanner

Helped on discord, also windows doesn't know how to read linux ext4 filesystems.

[@inanotherlife3138]

@@madelectronengineering could you make video like this for mining qubic with a orange pi 5 🤯

[@ronwatkins5775]

How does this compare (W/h) to the A03 phone? What is the price point for the HW (OrangePI, cooler and sd card)?

[@madelectronengineering]

I would need retro Mike to hook one up to a USB watt meter and compare.

[@krzysztofmichorowski5469]

A03 4mh with 3W with price 45 dollars permmobile so 2 of them will do 8mh , 6W so chepaer and quiet

[@reeftheseaforever]

is it still mining versus

[@nelberttvofficial]

Please make a tutorial for mining verus on orange Pi One.

[@Arek_R.]

ROI on this is like 7 years I don't get what's the point....

[@blackmennewstyle]

Yeah that's why i only try to grab very cheap refurbish phones < $50 USD lol Phones mining is fun but you gotta keep reality on check too lol

[@HolgerWittig]

You can use it on hardware that you already have like your raspberry pi

[@blackmennewstyle]

@@HolgerWittig Raspberry Pis do not do so well on Verushash, they are missing some crypto instructions in their chip which penalize them a bit for mining Verus.

[@Arek_R.]

@@HolgerWittig Then still you have like earnings of few cents per day, still doesn't make sense.

[@HolgerWittig]

@@Arek_R. Forget about ROI and profitability. In the bear market you have to mine and hodl.

[@BaconEggsAndHash]

Im assuming you can use a raspi 4 with the same results ?

[@godslayergaming4138]

No

[@Vlad19th]

I setup good tablet pc and it gave me 5.15Mh. Almost like yours. 😂

great video MEE

[@chiasegame247]

Running 247 continuously, how much electricity does it cost per month for this device?

[@ch3vr0n123]

10w

[@PunsRDum]

8 watts for a month would be 5760 watt hours or 5.76 kWh. Avg price of electricity in a lot of places in the US is around .10/kWh, so about 0.58 cents a month

[@kamertonaudiophileplayer847]

Probably I am only one who uses orangepi5 instead of IP.
