Hola!

Here's a pretty good resource for mining hardware, software, and pools.

  • https://ethereumclassic.org/mining

This repo contains useful information regarding ETC's etchash mining algo.

  • https://github.com/eth-classic/etchash

Here's an interesting project if you're interested in managing a pool on ETC with Stratum.

  • https://github.com/cyberpoolorg/etc-stratum

what I request is the way to run a node etc (configuration, commands and more) to run a node with the possibility of mining cin gpu, I currently have core geth installed for windows, and when I try to mine it generates ethereum dag and not etc , and also does not generate blocks with gpu, I would need information on this topic, thank you very much. the idea is to make a pool of etc, (I tried besu but it doesn't update with --classic), thanks

./build/bin/geth --classic --mine will generate the etchash DAG. But the built-in geth miner will only use CPU.

You'll need to use a different mining software for GPU mining, like lolMiner, GMiner, T-rex, or others.

Besu does not support mining.

The linked etc-stratum repo is software for running a mining pool. It expects a Core-Geth backend for chain state information.

Hey there, I've just created a PR (see link just above) with a few commands and resources that might help. Maybe we can move the conversation there and build a useful reference together.
