First of all equip yourself with a desktop wallet app. For this I can recommend Coinomi wallet. Download the wallet and select Dogecoin as your asset to be added.

Find your DOGE address by clicking on receive. Save the address somewhere.

Then go to unmineable.com to find a mining pool to join. If you want to mine using CPU you should select RandomX as the algorithm.

Copy the global server address.

Then we need to get our miner. Go to the GitHub page of xmrig and download the latest version of the asset for your system. I have tried the gcc windows version.

We’re almost there. Now unzip the archive and open the config.json file,

At line 118, replace set “rx/0” in algo, replace the url with the global server copied earlier and in user you should write “DOGE:your_doge_coinomi_address.DESK#hw1a-xt5m” the string after the address is any identifier for the machine the you’re using to mine.

Finally, execute start.cmd to launch the mining software.

To check your earnings you can go back to unmineable.com and then enter your DOGE address .

Good luck with your mining and let me know what your thoughts are!
