NerdSoloMiner

The NerdSoloMiner v2

This is a free and open source project that let you try to reach a bitcoin block with a small piece of hardware.

The main aim of this project is to let you learn more about minery and to have a beautiful piece of hardware in your desktop.

Original project https://github.com/valerio-vaccaro/HAN

Requirements

TTGO T-Display S3
3D BOX here

Project description

ESP32 implementing Stratum protocol to mine on solo pool. Pool can be changed but originally works with ckpool.

This project is using ESP32-S3, uses WifiManager to modify miner settings and save them to SPIFF.

This miner is multicore and multithreads, each thread mine a different block template. After 1,000,000 trials the block in refreshed in order to avoid mining on old template.

Current project is still in developement and more features will be added

Build Tutorial

Hardware requirements

TTGO T-Display S3 > Buy it on aliexpress or amazon
3D BOX

Flash firmware

Create your own miner using the online tool ESPtool and the binary files that you will find in the src/bin folder. If you want you can compile the entire project using Arduino, PlatformIO or Expressif IDF.

Get a TTGO T-display S3
Download this repository
Go to ESPtool online: https://espressif.github.io/esptool-js/
Load the firmware with the binaries from the src/bin folder.
Plug your board and select each file from src/bin with its address

Build troubleshooting

Online ESPtool works with chrome, chromium, brave
ESPtool recommendations: use 115200bps
Build errors > If during firmware download upload stops, it's recommended to enter the board in boot mode. Unplug cable, hold right bottom button and then plug cable. Try programming

NerdMiner configuration

After programming, you will only need to setup your Wifi and BTC address.

Connect to NerdMinerAP
Setup your Wifi Network
Add your BTCaddress

Optional you can select other pool:

Pool URL	Port	URL
solo.ckpool.org	3333	https://solo.ckpool.org/
btc.zsolo.bid	6057	https://zsolo.bid/en/btc-solo-mining-pool
eu.stratum.slushpool.com	3333	https://braiins.com/pool

If you need to reboot your currentConfig, hold right top button during 5 seconds and config will be deleted.

Project guidelines

Current project was addapted to work with PlatformIO
Current project works with ESP32-S3 but any ESP32 can be used.
Partition squeme should be build as huge app
All libraries needed shown on platform.ini

On process

Move project to platformIO
Bug rectangle on screen when 1milion shares
Bug memory leaks
Bug Reboots when received JSON contains some null values
Improve hashrate using Blockstream Jade miner code
Add blockHeight to screen
Add new screen with global mining stats
Add support to control BM1397

Enjoy
