Now that Bitcoin is becoming very hard to mine, Monero is the new Bitcoin. In this tutorial you’ll learn how to mine Monero on Raspberry Pi. In this tutorial I am going to introduce viewers to the Monero crypto mining setup on the Raspberry Pi 4 cluster. I will walk you through the setup which includes
1 - How to do a headless setup on a Raspberry Pi 4 using Raspi OS Lite
2 - How to SSH into the headless Raspberry Pi OS using terminal and command line
3 - How to mine the Monero crypto currently on multiple Pi’s, this concept can be used to mine other crypto currencies on the Raspberry Pi 4 that are maybe more profitable
4 - How to setup the Monero Gui wallet to track your earnings
5 - How to view hashes that the raspberry pi workers nodes are solving and view all jobs it has assisted with on the Monero network.

This sound class, gonna give this ago

[@neme6482]

Many thanks for this!
Did you eventually manage to record the video on how to set up the interface to monitor all of the Pi4's on Monero in the cluster? It would be cool to learn this. Hope you can share such video too!

[@steamlabstech]

Unfortunately not, I will do my best to record this in the next few weeks. I am currently working on a new cluster project for crypto

[@jansebastiangieser5898]

Which overclocking dis you set from the pi4?

[@nwiyerd]

All I ever get is connection error. Are there updates to this?

[@AidanReid]

I've been interested in doing this as a little project for FFH or low level crypto. With a cluster of Pi do you get much of a return (depending on the size of the cluster)

[@steamlabstech]

Not much, it’s for for a hobby and education, it would need to be on a much larger scale

[@AlbertBarends]

Hi Ralph, great video thanks very much!
I have 2 Raspberry Pi4's installed as workers and both running great. On a Windows desktop I have installed the monero gui wallet. The workers are both started with the same monero GUI wallet account (primary address). The workers are running for some weeks now however: the account balance in the monero gui wallet stays 0.
Do you have any idea? And/ or any idea's how to debug this?

[@jacobna2080]

Are you in a pool? Pi’s are not powerful enough to make any real money without joining a pool

[@jayvandenburgh855]

I've watched this video several times now as I'm interested in building a cluster. But not as described here. Close though, very close! This cluster is more like a farm, where each node is working independently from one other. I'm looking to build a cluster where the nodes are counted as one "supercomputer" dividing the workload across nodes. I know this is possibly found a few examples of people doing this, just not the technical "how-to" aspect.
Samsung did a project in 2017 where they used 40 Galaxy S5s. Loaded Linux on them and used a laptop as a master node, to mine Etherium. I've tried, but cannot get any information from Samsung on how they did this. Do you have any advice on how I can build such a cluster to mine Monero?

[@steamlabstech]

Hi Jay,
In order for you to get the nodes working together, I think you would need to look at a way to incorporate something like Kubernetes, so each Pi can see when the other one is being overworked. I have a new project on containerization I am working on that I will probably push over to the Pi's at some point and will be testing Monero on here to see how the Pi's respond, I am not quite there yet but let me know any research you find or if you want to explore the concept together at some point!!

[@For_Educational_Purpose_Only]

Sir, does this works like if i got 4 rpi's then do they work individually or are have a relationship of master and workers, this one thing i dont get it, sorry if this is stupid question, i am new to this so and thank you for this educational video

[@steamlabstech]

These were setup with one master pi that controlled the other pi's yes. I am now rebuilding this cluster of pi's for a new project which you will see come out soon for mining crypto

[@For_Educational_Purpose_Only]

@@steamlabstech thank you, waiting for it.

[@YesheRabsal]

If this were a true cluster wouldn't it be unnecessary to log into each pi and work would be shared across the cluster, so that total hash rate would be a multiple of all the cores across all the pi instead of what it seems like which is each pi being independently connected to the mining pool as an independent computer? I feel like you could go into more detail if this isn't the case. I do appreciate the video.

[@jacobna2080]

could you theoretically cluster any computer to mine?

[@steamlabstech]

Theoretically yes if you are running the right OS, in order for it to be a cluster you would need many devices, I haven’t tried it through virtualization on one machine as these would always need to be powered on plus you would have limited memory. What are you thinking of?

[@estellesabatier1039]

Good morning sir , please can you say me ,how many per day, you earn ! Thanks sir

[@steamlabstech]

This is for fun and education, it’s to small scale to earn anything

[@fredrickmbilo8294]

Easy on the keyboard.

[@steamlabstech]

Haha it’s what happens when you use a keycron keyboard

[@nosuchthing8]

Good luck getting a pi at a decent price
