I want to start mining Vertcoin (VTC)

1/2. Select a stratum server

Stratum server location Asia
Stratum server address vertcoin.cedric-crispin.com
Port with SSL 3335 ⇒ (GPU, initial difficulty: 0.128, minimum difficulty: 0.0128)
Port without SSL 3334 ⇒ (GPU, initial difficulty: 0.128, minimum difficulty: 0.0128)
Username <Your VTC Wallet address>[.<Worker>]   (.<Worker> is optional)
Password x[,d=<Difficulty>]   (,d=<Difficulty> is optional)

2/2. Configure a mining software

Team Red Miner
Port with SSL ./teamredminer -a verthash -o stratum+ssl://vertcoin.cedric-crispin.com:3335 -u VsLb6Km6i2J5ktbhX88TeEG95CYpLaeM9D.aegaeon -p x verthash_file=verthash.dat
Port without SSL ./teamredminer -a verthash -o stratum+tcp://vertcoin.cedric-crispin.com:3334 -u VsLb6Km6i2J5ktbhX88TeEG95CYpLaeM9D.aegaeon -p x verthash_file=verthash.dat
VerthashMiner
Port with SSL VerthashMiner doesn't support port with SSL!
Port without SSL ./VerthashMiner --algo verthash --url stratum+tcp://vertcoin.cedric-crispin.com:3334 --user VsLb6Km6i2J5ktbhX88TeEG95CYpLaeM9D.aegaeon --pass x --verthash-data verthash.dat

Good practice

Always check if the pool latency, relative to your geographical location, is within a range of acceptance: < 300ms.

Download the open source tool: Stratum ping.

Using port with SSL

./stratum-ping -tls vertcoin.cedric-crispin.com:3335
PING stratum vertcoin.cedric-crispin.com (192.168.1.4) TLS port 3335
vertcoin.cedric-crispin.com (192.168.1.4): seq=0, time=7.978193ms
