Mine cryptocurrencies Monero (XMR) and Electroneum (ETN) using CoinHive from node.js
New: Now you can run this miner on any stratum based pool.
New 2: Now you can mine Electroneum (ETN).
Need a proxy? check coin-hive-stratum.
npm install -g coin-hive
const CoinHive = require('coin-hive');
(async () => {
// Create miner
const miner = await CoinHive('ZM4gjqQ0jh0jbZ3tZDByOXAjyotDbo00'); // CoinHive'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}
`)

-
CoinHive(siteKey[, options]): Returns a promise of aMinerinstance. It requires a CoinHive Site Key. Theoptionsobject is optional and may contain the following properties:-
username: Set a username for the miner. See CoinHive.User. -
interval: Interval betweenupdateevents in ms. Default is1000. -
port: Port for the miner server. Default is3002. -
host: Host for the miner server. Default islocalhost. -
threads: Number of threads. Default isnavigator.hardwareConcurrency(number of CPU cores). -
throttle: The fraction of time that threads should be idle. Default is0. -
proxy: Puppeteer's proxy socket 5/4 (ie:socks5://127.0.0.1:9050). -
launch: The options that will be passed topuppeteer.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 is0.001(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: InformshashesPerSecond,totalHashesandacceptedHashes. -
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.
-
-
miner.rpc(methodName, argsArray): This method allows you to interact with the CoinHive miner instance. It returns a Promise that resolves the the value of the remote method that was called. The miner instance API can be found here. Here's an example:
var miner = await CoinHive('SITE_KEY');
await miner.rpc('isRunning'); // false
await miner.start();
await miner.rpc('isRunning'); // true
await miner.rpc('getThrottle'); // 0
await miner.rpc('setThrottle', [0.5]);
await miner.rpc('getThrottle'); // 0.5All the following environment variables can be used to configure the miner from the outside:
-
COINHIVE_SITE_KEY: CoinHive's Site Key -
COINHIVE_USERNAME: Set a username to the miner. See CoinHive.User. -
COINHIVE_INTERVAL: The interval on which the miner reports an update -
COINHIVE_THREADS: Number of threads -
COINHIVE_THROTTLE: The fraction of time that threads should be idle -
COINHIVE_PORT: The port that will be used to launch the server, and where puppeteer will point to -
COINHIVE_HOST: The host that will be used to launch the server, and where puppeteer will point to -
COINHIVE_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:COINHIVE_PUPPETEER_URL=http://coin-hive.herokuapp.com) -
COINHIVE_MINER_URL: Set the CoinHive JavaScript Miner url. By defualt this ishttps://coinhive.com/lib/coinhive.min.js. You can set this to use a CoinHive Proxy. -
COINHIVE_PROXY: Puppeteer's proxy socket 5/4 (ie:COINHIVE_PROXY=socks5://127.0.0.1:9050) -
COINHIVE_DEV_FEE: A donation to the developer, the default is 0.001 (0.1%). -
COINHIVE_POOL_HOST: A custom stratum pool host, it must be used in combination withCOINHIVE_POOL_PORT. -
COINHIVE_POOL_PORT: A custom stratum pool port, it must be used in combination withCOINHIVE_POOL_HOST. -
COINHIVE_POOL_PASS: A custom stratum pool password, if not provided the default one is 'x'.
Yes, you can run this on any pool based on the Stratum Mining Protocol.
const CoinHive = require('coin-hive');
(async () => {
const miner = await CoinHive('<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 CoinHive miner would be mining on supportXMR.com pool, using your monero address.
You can also do this using the CLI:
coin-hive <YOUR-MONERO-ADDRESS> --pool-host=la01.supportxmr.com --pool-port=3333 --pool-pass=<YOUR-PASSWORD-FOR-POOL>
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 CoinHive = require('coin-hive');
const miner = await CoinHive('<YOUR-ELECTRONEUM-ADDRESS>', {
pool: {
host: 'etn-pool.proxpool.com',
port: 3333
}
});
miner.start();Now your CoinHive miner would be mining on etn.proxpool.com pool, using your electroneum address.
You can also do this using the CLI:
coin-hive <YOUR-ELECTRONEUM-ADDRESS> --pool-host=etn-pool.proxpool.com --pool-port=3333
One of the features of Electroneum is that it has a difficulty of 100, while CoinHive's is 256.
No, it violates the TOS.
Also, since Puppeteer requires some additional dependencies that aren't included on the Linux box that Heroku spins up for you, you need to go to your app's Settings > Buildpacks first and add this url:
https://github.com/jontewks/puppeteer-heroku-buildpack
On the next deploy, your app will also install the dependencies that Puppeteer needs to run.
You'll need to install the latest version of Chrome and Puppeteer's dependencies in your Dockerfile:
FROM node:8-slim
# Install latest chrome and puppeteer dependencies
RUN wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | apt-key add - &&\
sh -c 'echo "deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list' &&\
apt-get update &&\
apt-get install -y google-chrome-unstable gconf-service libasound2 libatk1.0-0 libc6 libcairo2 libcups2 libdbus-1-3 libexpat1 libfontconfig1 libgcc1 libgconf-2-4 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 libglib2.0-0 libgtk-3-0 libnspr4 libpango-1.0-0 libpangocairo-1.0-0 libstdc++6 libx11-6 libx11-xcb1 libxcb1 libxcomposite1 libxcursor1 libxdamage1 libxfixes3 libxi6 libxrandr2 libxrender1 libxss1 libxtst6 ca-certificates fonts-liberation libappindicator1 libnss3 lsb-release xdg-utils wget
# Install coin-hive
RUN npm i -g coin-hive --unsafe-perm=true --allow-root
# Run coin-hive
CMD coin-hive <site-key>
Node v8+
Install these dependencies:
sudo apt-get -y install gconf-service libasound2 libatk1.0-0 libc6 libcairo2 libcups2 libdbus-1-3 libexpat1 libfontconfig1 libgcc1 libgconf-2-4 libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 libglib2.0-0 libgtk-3-0 libnspr4 libpango-1.0-0 libpangocairo-1.0-0 libstdc++6 libx11-6 libx11-xcb1 libxcb1 libxcomposite1 libxcursor1 libxdamage1 libxfixes3 libxi6 libxrandr2 libxrender1 libxss1 libxtst6 ca-certificates fonts-liberation libappindicator1 libnss3 lsb-release xdg-utils wget libxext6
Try installing the package using this:
sudo npm i -g coin-hive --unsafe-perm=true --allow-root
Try changing chromium's executable path to /usr/bin/chromium-browser, like this:
const miner = await CoinHive('site-key', {
launch: {
executablePath: '/usr/bin/chromium-browser',
args: ['--disable-setuid-sandbox', '--no-sandbox']
}
});For more info check issue #54
