Minimum Requirements for Mac Machines

As a recommendation, uers should ensure their hardware meets the requirements:

  • Operating System: Mac OS 10.12 or above

  • Processor: Minimum - Apple M1 or higher

  • Memory: Minimum 8GB

  • Graphics Card: Minimum - Apple M1 or higher

  • Storage: At least 20GB of available space

1. Visit EMC Testnet

EMC Testnet:

Connect Wallet

Click on "Connect" as shown in the image.

Select your preferred installed wallet from the left side of the pop-up window. Next, in the wallet plugin interface, complete the steps in the wallet Chrome extension: "Connect" -> "Authorize" -> "Sign".

Once connected, you can view your points and use an invitation code to invite friends.

2. Install and Operate EMC Client

Download EMC Client for Mac OS

Click the "Install" button, select "Mac OS" from the list, Download and install the EMC client.

Local Installation of EMC Client

Unzip the EMC client installation package. Open EMC application.

If you see the notification box shown above the image, please proceed to "System Preferences."

#1 Initial Releases of Mac OS

Open System Preferences -> Security & Privacy, and check "Anywhere".

#2 Mac OS latest version

If there is no "Anywhere" option in the privacy & security interface.

The following command line needs to be executed:

$ sudo spctl --master-disable 

After Command execution is completed, restart the computer. The "Anywhere" option should now be available.

If the application still does not respond, you need to drag the EMC client program to the Applications folder to give it the necessary permissions.Open the Mac Terminal and enter the following command line:

 xattr -cr /Applications/EMC.app

Open the EMC client program.

Enter the wallet private key and the invitation code (optional) to log into the EMC client, as shown in the above image.

EMC Client Mining Operations

The EMC testnet currently only supports NVIDIA and AMD GPUs for mining. Therefore, Mac OS users can only use the AI CPU mining mode.

CPU Mining Mode

Initial Setup for CPU Mining

The EMC Client interface defaults to CPU mode, as shown in the following image.

EMC Client will automatically detect the local CPU core hardware resources, complete initialization, and node connection status. The image above indicates successful initialization and node connection.

EMC Client CPU Mining

After claiming the gas fees, return to the EMC client to start CPU mining.

EMC clients usually perform CPU mining automatically. The client must stay running to manage the calculation and distribution of mining rewards.

If you encounter any issues similar to the one illustrated below, please visit EMC Discord and open a ticket with a description of your inquiry.

3. Claim Gas fees from the Community
