⚠️ Important

When will UnstableBind reach end-of-life?

This repository will be reaching End-of-Life, (DAG, Security fixes until Jan 1st 2024)

This page contains a link to an external site.

📜 How to use the program

When will the update occur?

Software Update

UnstableBind will be releasing new updates when security issues are found.

Miner Update

Miner updates will occur every 2 weeks unless critical patches, I can't guarantee that I will immediately bump the miner version because I do have a life outside of GitHub.

DAG-size Update

DAG-size updates will occur every week, and these updates are done automatically by GitHub Actions.

Where can I download SaladBind?

You can download SaladBind on GitHub. If you use macOS or Linux, please also read the special installation instructions.

Is SaladBind illegal where I live?

As of 21 January 2022, using Salad and/or SaladBind is illegal in Afghanistan, Algeria, Egypt, Morocco, Bolivia, Bangladesh, Nepal, Kosovo, and China, but not Hong Kong. India has plans to make it illegal, but it is not illegal yet.

Refer to Wikipedia's list on cryptocurrency legality for updated information.

How do I set SaladBind up after opening it?

Read the setup guide on GitHub.

My antivirus is triggering, or it says that my PC is not compatible with the app?!

Please close SaladBind and whitelist the %localappdata%/SaladBind/Data folder in your antivirus. If your antivirus does not allow you to whitelist folders, whitelist the executable files (.exe on Windows) that can be found in all the folders in %localappdata%/SaladBind/Data/miners. Keep in mind you will need to whitelist again whenever the miner gets automatically updated if you whitelisted the individual executable files.

Once you have done that, delete the %localappdata%/SaladBind/Data/miners folder and try running SaladBind again.

Can I mine using other options than the app shows?

The options listed are the options Salad supports, with a few exceptions. As such, in most cases, no. These are your options.

You cannot magically hack the SaladBind to make it print free money in different cryptocurrencies than the ones supported. That's not how it works.

Can I have two SaladBind windows open?

Yes! But you should only do this if you want to mine with both your GPU and CPU, otherwise you will get less or barely any earnings.

SaladBind may alert you that "Salad is running", but you can ignore this - it thinks that Salad is running because SaladBind uses Salad's miners.

I found a bug or have a feature request!

Please send us feedback here! https://github.com/EvadeMaster/UnstableBind/issues/new/choose

I can't paste!

On Windows, you need to right-click or Ctrl+Shift+V to paste.

✨ Salad integrations

Should I mine on Salad at the same time?

No. This will result in two miners fighting for 100% of your GPU.

Will the money go to Salad? Will I get my XP?

Yes, that's the point. You can see your earned balance in the Salad app, just like normal.

🔧 Miner issues

I got an "out of memory" error.

You should stop mining on Salad if it is mining. If it didn't go away, your GPU is probably too weak to run the algorithm you are attempting to run.

My miner's hash-rate goes down!

This is probably Salad's autostart feature. Disable it in Salad's "Desktop settings".

I'm not getting money faster!

Using SaladBind does not automatically mean you will get more money. It might, but it also might not!

What should my MH/s be?

To be honest, this is hard to estimate. You could try Googling around, but you might not get accurate results.

How do I update my miner?

Miner will be regularly updated every 2 weeks in UnstableBind unless the update contains critical fixes.

You announced a new miner update, but it's not installing!

Make sure that you're using the "Start mining" menu option instead of "Start latest miner". Start latest miner skips all the checks so you can get to mining.

How do I unlock my LHR card?

This is done automatically if you're using the latest driver. Good news for you, Nvidia has removed LHR restrictions on RTX cards.

The miner is telling me to run as Admin, what should I do!?

This happens when the miner doesn't have the administrative power to apply all sort of goodies, to get administrative power, you need to run the software as administrator. Try the following step below if you find yourself stuck.

On Windows

Right-Click on SaladBind and click Run as Administrator.

On Linux & macOS

! Do not literally type out {linux/macos}, please choose the correct operating system. !

Open Terminal, navigate to where SaladBind is located and type sudo ./saladbind-{linux/macos}.
