About XelisHash Mining Algo

Xelis uses the XelisHash algorithm, which is designed to be highly efficient and ASIC-resistant, ensuring fairness by promoting GPU mining. This algorithm is a modified version of RandomX, fine-tuned for optimal performance on CPUs and GPUs. XelisHash continuously randomizes operations to prevent hardware optimization, offering increased decentralization and security for the network. You can read more about it in the XelisHash documentation.

Step 1: Set Up a Xelis Wallet or Use an Exchange Account

To receive your mining rewards, you can either mine directly to an exchange or use a dedicated wallet. If you prefer using an exchange for quicker trades, supported platforms include:
