System Requirements
CPU mining is not possible on XPHERE
Mining runs exclusively on the IceRiver XP0 xpHash ASIC. The legacy software miner and its CPU and operating-system requirements no longer apply — since the xpHash fork, a CPU cannot seal a valid block.
Mining Hardware
| Item | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Miner | IceRiver XP0 (xpHash ASIC) — the only operable miner |
| Algorithm | xpHash |
For the unit's electrical, hashrate, and acoustic specifications, refer to the official IceRiver XP0 product sheet provided with the device or by the XPHERE Foundation.
Operating Environment
- Power: A dedicated circuit sized to the XP0's rated draw, with stable voltage
- Network: Wired Ethernet with a stable internet connection to reach the XPHERE mining endpoints
- Cooling / ventilation: Adequate airflow and ambient temperature control for continuous ASIC operation
- Placement: ASIC units are loud — install in an area where noise is acceptable
Wallet Requirements
- An XPHERE address to receive rewards — a Zigap wallet on the
XPHERE 2.0network works, as does any address you control
