🧰 Prerequisites

Before getting started, make sure you have the following:

  • A Linux-based system (Ubuntu 20.04+ or WSL on Windows)
  • A Backpack wallet (or another Eclipse-compatible wallet) Download
  • 0.005+ ETH on the Eclipse network

Getting Started

Prepare Environment

image
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
sudo apt install curl nano build-essential -y

Build Screen from Source

sudo apt install autoconf make gcc libutempter-dev libpam0g-dev libncurses5-dev -y
curl -O https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/screen/screen-4.9.1.tar.gz
tar -xzf screen-4.9.1.tar.gz
cd screen-4.9.1
./configure
make
sudo make install

Check screen version

screen --version 
image

Install RUST

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh
image

Press 1 to proceed

source $HOME/.cargo/env

Install Solana CLI

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSfL https://solana-install.solana.workers.dev | bash 
image

After Installation, reload terminal

source $HOME/.bashrc
image

Check Version

solana --version

if using VPS, and Solana not found, REBOOT

reboot

Configue RPC for Eclipse

This connects CLI to the Eclipse mainnet.

solana config set --url https://mainnetbeta-rpc.eclipse.xyz/

Wallet Setup (Solana Keypair)

Create New Keypair

solana-keygen new

Press ENTER and save the passphrase

Exporting PrivateKey from ID.json

cat ~/.config/solana/id.json
  • Copy the output (a list of numbers) and import it into Backpack Wallet under “Private Key”.
  • Fund the wallet with 0.005+ ETH on Eclipse to activate mining.

Install Bitz CLI

This compiles and installs the Bitz miner directly from source.

cargo install bitz
image

🧪 Start Mining Bitz by opening Screen

screen -S bitzminer

Start Miner

bitz collect

Using Multiple core

bitz collect --cores 4

To keep it running in the background:

  • Detach screen: Ctrl + A + D
  • Reattach screen: `screen -r bitzminer
  • List screens: screen -ls
  • Stop miner: Ctrl + C inside screen
  • Kill screen: screen -XS bitzminer quit

I used 4 cores here (will adjsut appropriately according to my SPEC)

✅ Final Notes


  • Always keep a backup of your id.json file and mnemonic
  • Bitz mining only works if your wallet is funded with ETH on Eclipse
  • You can run this setup on basic VPS (e.g., 1 vCPU, 1GB RAM)

DONE!

HAHAHAHAHAH!
