Head to our GitHub Releases page, download the latest release for your operating system, and just run it if you're on Windows. BUT KEEP READING TO LEARN HOW TO SET UP AND USE IT!
If you're not on macOS, Linux, or Windows 7, you can skip this section.
If you are on macOS or Linux, please note that these platforms are untested, and you may encounter bugs.
For these platforms, you'll need to run SaladBind from the terminal, due to how SaladBind works. If you need help with using the terminal, don't be afraid to Google a bit - you'll have to use cd
to be in the same folder that SaladBind is in.
Use these commands to start SaladBind, for macOS or Linux respectively:
chmod +x ./saladbind-macos # You only need to run this once
./saladbind-macos
chmod +x ./saladbind-linux # You only need to run this once
./saladbind-linux
SaladBind does not, by default, support Windows 7. Only use these steps if you know what you are doing.
However, you can make a bat file with Notepad in the same location as SaladBind to allow it to run and use it to open SaladBind instead of the exe.
set NODE_SKIP_PLATFORM_CHECK="1"
saladbind-win
Once you start SaladBind for the first time, it will ask you if you want to enable Discord Rich Presence. Here is what it looks like:
Then, it'll prompt you to enter your mining details.
You can do this by letting SaladBind search your log file, entering your Salad Auth token, or enter your Rig ID manually.
SaladBind will search your Salad's log file for your Rig ID and save it automatically.
- Start mining with the Salad app normally for 5-15 minutes (the "Chopping" stage)
- Choose Automatic on SaladBind (Read from Salad logs)
You will be prompted to enter your access token. It is recommended to use a Chromium-based browser like Google Chrome or the new Microsoft Edge. To get your access token follow these steps:
- Log in to https://app.salad.io/
- Click the lock symbol in the address bar
- Open
Cookies
and uncollapseapp-api.salad.io
- Look for
sAccessToken
and copy it (right click and clickSelect all
as it is very long) - Paste the token into the terminal (on Windows, right-click in the SaladBind window to paste)
- Start mining with the Salad app normally, if you have already been mining for over ~3h you need to restart Salad
- Mine for around 5-15 minutes (the "Chopping" stage)
- Find your Salad logs. A guide can be found here
- Search for "rig ID" in the main.log file and copy it. Both the Ethermine worker ID and NiceHash rig ID are supported
- Paste the Rig ID into the terminal (on Windows, right-click in the SaladBind window to paste)
- Next, look for a line in the logs that looks like
PhoenixMiner.exe -rmode 0 -rvram 1 -log 0 -pool stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3339 -pool2 stratum+tcp://eu.prohashing.com:3339 -wal salad -pass o="006a68e5-c33c-40f0-9531-fb216829612f,n="006a68e5-c33c-40f0-9531-fb216829612f
Copy the part aftero=
until the,n=
as demonstrated here:006a68e5-c33c-40f0-9531-fb216829612f
- Paste the Prohashing id into the terminal (on Windows, right-click in the SaladBind window to paste)
If you don’t want to use the Prohashing pool, you can skip steps 6 & 7
However, using the Prohashing pool is recommended when possible.
You are now ready to go!
If you don't know what miner, algorithm or pool to pick, we have a handy guide.
If you don't want to use our pre-compiled binaries you can compile SaladBind yourself. You'll need to install Node.js.
- Clone the repository
- Open a terminal in the folder and run
npm install
- Run
npm run compile
(This may display a warning, but it's safe to ignore it) - Your compiled binaries will be in the
bin
folder
