Install easyBTX on Linux

For Linux PCs with an NVIDIA GPU (GTX 10-series or newer). Pool mining, one-click, no node. The Linux build ships the newer, faster engine, so a single NVIDIA card mines noticeably harder here than on the Windows build.

1. Check your NVIDIA driver works. In a terminal:

nvidia-smi

If it lists your card you are set. If not, on Ubuntu install the driver first:

sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall

(then reboot and run nvidia-smi again.)

2. Download, make it runnable, and start easyBTX - one line, no browser needed:

wget -O ~/easyBTX.AppImage https://github.com/MendeMatthias/EasyBTX-releases/releases/download/v0.9.9/easyBTX_amd64.AppImage && chmod +x ~/easyBTX.AppImage && ~/easyBTX.AppImage --appimage-extract-and-run

Paste your BTX payout address and press Start. To open easyBTX again later, just run ~/easyBTX.AppImage --appimage-extract-and-run. If the window does not appear, run LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 ~/easyBTX.AppImage --appimage-extract-and-run instead.

You don't have to lift a finger. From v0.9.7, easyBTX on Linux updates itself - new versions download, verify, and install automatically, just like the Mac, and your wallet, payout address and settings carry over. You can still force a check in Settings → Updates. The full step-by-step is on the Update guide.

Unsigned builds rest on a published hash, not a signature. The current SHA-256 and a full VirusTotal scan are linked on the home page, so you can check the file you downloaded matches before you run it.
