Please read Setting up FPGA/ASIC devices and make sure you're set up correctly. If MacMiner shows Accepted shares that's a good sign, but the best way to find out is on your pool website. How do you know whether your miner is working? Not with the same ASICs that are used to mine Bitcoin, and other SHA-256 coins, however dedicated hardware is being developed for scrypt coins. Can you mine Litecoin or other scrypt coins with ASICs? bfgminer usually gives better results on a Mac.

What's the difference between bfgminer and cgminer? Both are very similar, but bfgminer officially supports Mac OS X, while cgminer conflicts with the native usb serial drivers on Mac OS 10.9 Mavericks.

What does accepted mean?Īccepted counts the number of shares that have been received, processed and accepted. The earlier versions of MacMiner (including the version for 10.6) need to be in the Applications folder to function properly. Installing smcfancontrol and revving up the fans is recommended if CPU/GPU mining, as is monitoring your temperatures. I take no responsibility for any damage to your posessions.
Warning: Bitcoin mining can damage your computer and puts a high strain on components used for mining.
