ARW Specifications and info:

Released: Genesis block mined July 7, 2019
Algorithm: Equihash Heavy 192,7
Block time: 45 seconds
Block reward: 70

Block maturity: 100 blocks
Total supply: 210,000,000 max
100% Private transactions
Arrow utilizes recent upgrades to the Zcash code base — via Sapling and its own changes and upgrades to the code — to make transactions faster and significantly more private. This allows Arrow to ensure that all transactions are shielded on all devices.

To mine ARW, you’ll need:

A mining rig, or a contract with MiningRigRentals
A wallet to store and manage your funds
Mining software that is compatible with the Equihash Heavy(192,7) algorithm ArrowPoW Personality

ARW Storage and Management:

Wallets for Windows, and macOS can be found at https://github.com/Arrowchain/arrowwallet/releases
Install the wallet and launch

Click on the “Receive” tab after the Quiver wallet loads. The private address shown will be the address you will mine to. If you wish to create another address, simply return to this tab and click “New Address”.

ARW mining software:

There are currently three options for mining ARW on Nvidia, and one for AMD. After each miner and link, I will also list an example batch file with which you can begin mining.
