Hashwarp is the official GPU miner for Parallax’s XHash Proof-of-Work. It mines on NVIDIA GPUs (CUDA) and AMD and other GPUs (OpenCL), on a mining pool or solo on your own node. It has no dev fee. Besides mining, Hashwarp:
  • Sets itself up: run it without options and a short wizard asks how you want to mine.
  • Protects your hardware: temperature limits per GPU, a shutdown temperature, and a watchdog that restarts a GPU when it fails. Every solution is checked before it is submitted.
  • Tunes your GPUs: memory and core clocks, power limits and fans per GPU, and --oc-tune, which finds the best settings for each one.
  • Shows what it does: a web dashboard of one rig or all of them, a JSON API and Prometheus metrics.
  • Warns you when your pool finds most of the network’s blocks, which puts the network at risk.
  • Runs on HiveOS and mmpOS with ready-made packages.

​
Prerequisites

  • An NVIDIA GPU (driver 525 or newer) or an AMD GPU (AMD driver with OpenCL: Adrenalin on Windows, ROCm on Linux), with enough memory for the XHash DAG: about 1.7 GB in late 2026, growing slowly with each epoch.
  • Windows 10 or newer, or Linux with glibc 2.28 or newer (Ubuntu 20.04, Debian 10, RHEL 8 and later). Everything else Hashwarp needs comes in the download.
  • A Parallax address to receive rewards, or your own Parallax client to mine solo.

Step-by-step Guide

1

Download Hashwarp

Download the archive for your operating system from the Hashwarp releases and extract it. It holds the hashwarp executable, a sample configuration (hashwarp.json.example) and start scripts.On HiveOS or mmpOS, use the ready-made package instead: see HiveOS & mmpOS.
2

Start it

Run hashwarp without options. The first time, it asks whether you want to mine on a pool or solo, which pool, your address and a name for the rig, saves the answers in hashwarp.json and starts mining. Next time it starts with that configuration.Or give the options on the command line. On a pool:
Replace <POOL_HOST>:<PORT> with the pool’s address and <YOUR_ADDRESS> with your Parallax address. The worker name tells your rigs apart on the pool’s dashboard. See Mining on a Pool to choose a pool, or Solo Mining to mine on your own node.
3

Check that it mines

Hashwarp prints the hashrate every 10 seconds and a line for each share the pool accepts:
The line shows the current hashrate and its 1 and 15 minute averages, the effective hashrate (what the pool credits you), the accepted (A) and rejected (R) shares, then the temperature, fan, power and efficiency. Press s for a table per GPU, or h for the other keys. Output & Logs explains every part.
Run hashwarp --selftest once after installing, and after changing drivers or overclocking: it mines offline for up to 30 seconds, checks every GPU’s results on the CPU and says PASS or FAIL for each GPU.
