The Torque GUI miner offers a visually appealing and user-friendly interface for mining Torque. Its primary goal is to simplify the process for individuals who have never engaged in mining Torque, making it easy for newcomers to enter the cryptocurrency space.Currently, we support two widely used mining backends:
- xtc-stak
- xtcrig (please note that xmrig-nvidia and xmrig-amd do not yet support our v5 proof-of-work algorithm)
If you're interested in creating your own version of this miner, please refer to the forking section later in this document.
