XMR mining, can't find any pools that work #354

Closed Pythonic456 closed 2 years ago

Can I have some help finding a XMR mining pool that works with cpuminer-opt? Most of the ones I have tried give this error:

muser@0ec0993dfb7b:~/cpuminer-opt$ ./cpuminer -a scrypt -o stratum+tcp://xmr-eu1.nanopool.org:14433 -u 49FiVC7RHvA***9x4DPRbHyjEm

... and it repeats this over and over.

BTW I am new to crypto mining and only have a CPU to mine on. I am not worried about the profitability right now. Some help learning how to mine would be great.

Thanks so much!

You need to use the correct algorithm and miner, cpuminer-opt can't mine XMR.

There are many resources available to learn how to mine, I'm not your personal tutor.
