Mine with GPUs. Earn forever. Stay profitable.
ASIC-resistant algorithm. Fair rewards. Storage rent keeps miners paid after emissions end.
Why mine Ergo instead of other coins?
ASIC-Resistant
GPU-only mining. No ASICs. No industrial farms squeezing you out. Your gaming rig stays competitive.
Level playing fieldFair Launch
Zero pre-mine. Zero dev tax. Zero VC allocation. Every ERG mined fairly since day one.
No insider dumpsReal Use Cases
DeFi, DEXs, privacy features create actual demand. Not just speculation - real utility driving value.
Sustainable demandLong-term Economics
Storage rent pays miners forever. When emissions end, you still earn. Built for decades, not pump & dump.

Why Ergo vs BTC / ETH / XMR?
Ergo is designed so that GPU miners can meaningfully participate in securing a useful network, not just chase pump-and-dumps.
| Criterion | Bitcoin | Ethereum | Monero | Ergo |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mining Hardware | ASIC-only | Proof-of-Stake | CPU/GPU friendly | GPU-optimized |
| Block Reward | Halving every 4y | No mining | Tail emission | 9 ERG + fees |
| Future Incentives | Fees only | No mining | Perpetual rewards | Storage rent |
| Network Utility | Store of value | Smart contracts | Privacy payments | DeFi + Privacy |
| Mining Accessibility | Industrial scale | No mining | Home mining | GPU rigs viable |

Step-by-step: How to Start Mining Ergo
Clear onboarding process to get you mining ERG with your GPU setup.
Check Your Hardware
Verify GPU compatibility and power requirements for optimal mining performance.
- NVIDIA GTX 1060 6GB+ or AMD RX 580 8GB+
- Minimum 4GB VRAM required
- Stable power supply (80+ Gold recommended)
- Adequate cooling and ventilation
Choose Mining Setup
Decide between solo mining or joining a pool based on your hashrate and preferences.
- Solo mining: Full block rewards but irregular payouts
- Pool mining: Regular payouts but shared rewards
- Recommended pools: Herominers, Woolypooly, 2Miners
- Consider pool fees (typically 1-2%)
Install Mining Software
Download and configure mining software compatible with Autolykos algorithm.
- T-Rex Miner (NVIDIA) or TeamRedMiner (AMD)
- NBMiner (cross-platform alternative)
- Configure with pool address and wallet
- Optimize GPU settings for efficiency
Set Up Wallet & Start
Create an Ergo wallet, configure payout address, and begin mining operations.
- Download Nautilus or Yoroi wallet
- Generate new wallet and backup seed phrase
- Copy wallet address for mining payouts
- Start mining and monitor performance
