Open Source C Crypto Mining Software

cpuminer is a multi-threaded, highly optimized CPU miner for Litecoin, Bitcoin, and other cryptocurrencies. Currently supported algorithms are SHA-256d and scrypt(N, 1, 1). It supports the getblocktemplate mining protocol as well as the Stratum mining protocol, and can be used for both solo and pooled mining. Notice: Please see here to understand why this package is recognized as a threat by some antivirus software: https://github.com/pooler/cpuminer/issues/13

High performance, open-source, cross-platform RandomX, KawPow, CryptoNight, and AstroBWT CPU/GPU miner, RandomX benchmark, and stratum proxy. XMRig is a high-performance, open-source, cross-platform RandomX, KawPow, CryptoNight, and AstroBWT unified CPU/GPU miner and RandomX benchmark. Official binaries are available for Windows, Linux, macOS, and FreeBSD. The preferred way to configure the miner is the JSON config file as it is more flexible and human-friendly. The command-line interface does not cover all features, such as mining profiles for different algorithms. Important options can be changed during runtime without miner restart by editing the config file or executing API calls.

A multi-threaded multi-pool GPU miner with ATI GPU monitoring, (over)clocking and fanspeed support for scrypt-based cryptocurrency. It is based on cgminer by Con Kolivas (ckolivas), which is in turn based on cpuminer by Jeff Garzik (jgarzik).
