Firo<\/a> (formerly known as Zcoin) is a coin that claims to be the next generation cryptocurrency with the most powerful privacy features<\/strong>. Firo brings you a new and improved way to securely and anonymously transact cryptocurrencies.<\/p>\n

Their FiroPoW<\/a> mining algorithm makes use of all of your GPU\u2019s power<\/strong>. It also has a random sequence that changes each block to provide the currency with extra ASIC<\/a> and FPGA<\/a> resistance.<\/p>\n

So, if you want to start mining FIRO with your own GPU<\/a>, you can do it by following this guide (Linux and Windows only).<\/p>\n

\"mine<\/figure>\n

Start mining FIRO with your GPU<\/h2>\n

The first thing you should know is that FIRO is designed to be mined with GPUs only. To start mining, you will need at least 6 GB of RAM<\/strong> on your system.<\/p>\n

Step 1: Create FIRO wallet<\/h3>\n

In order to receive your pool earnings, you need a wallet address. First, download and create your wallet, where you will find your wallet address<\/strong>, which is required to start mining. You can download it from FIRO\u2019s official website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"mine<\/figure>\n

Step 2: Install T-Rex Miner<\/h3>\n

Download the T-Rex miner<\/a> and extract the files<\/strong> to the desired folder.<\/p>\n

\"mine<\/figure>\n

Step 3: Choose a pool for mining<\/h3>\n

Open the folder<\/strong> where you unzipped the files and find the FIRO-pool.bat file<\/strong> in it. Choose a mining pool from the most popular FIRO mining pools<\/a> and then right-click <\/strong> on the file. Then just click Edit<\/strong> .<\/p>\n

\"mine<\/figure>\n

A text file will then open; now here you need to keep in mind that the closer you are to your pool geographically, the more efficient your FIRO mining will be.<\/p>\n

\"mine<\/figure>\n

Step 4: Replace the wallet address with your own<\/h3>\n

In the same .bat<\/span> file, you simply need to change the default wallet address to your own.<\/p>\n

\"mine<\/figure>\n

Step 5: Lastly, run the file<\/h3>\n

Once you have run the file, you can start mining. That\u2019s all, now you are a new miner of the FIRO currency!<\/p>\n

\"mine<\/figure>\n

Once you are done, you can get information about the mining process by visiting your pool. In this case, it\u2019s 2miners<\/em>. So, if you\u2019re mining on this pool too, simply follow this link<\/a> and enter your wallet address<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The pool will display real-time mining reports to you about your hashrate<\/strong>, mining efficiency and payment history. If you are not mining on the 2miners pool, then here are the links to the other two pools: WoolyPooly<\/a> and MintPond<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
