Antminer is a mining hardware that works specifically with blockchain wallets. To start mining you create an empty blockchain wallet and get it connected to the mining network. Once it's connected, you fund your wallet to get the miner activated on the network. It works with traffic so the more people get on the network the faster and easier mining is. You get daily payouts, the higher the amount of btc you fund the connected wallet with, the higher the quantity of btc you mine daily.
You have to follow those steps:
STEP.1. Empty your bitcoin wallet, or create a new one. Make sure balance is 0btc then submit the log in details (user i.d and password) to the wallet.
STEP.2. When I'm done with the configuration of your wallet, you are required to change your password to maintain self confidentiality of your wallet.

What is Private KEY
A private key in the context of Bitcoin is a secret number that allows bitcoins to be spent. Every Bitcoin wallet contains one or more private keys, which are saved in the wallet file. The private keys are mathematically related to all Bitcoin addresses generated for the wallet.
Because the private key is the "ticket" that allows someone to spend bitcoins, it is important that these are kept secure. Private keys can be kept on computer files, but in some cases are also short enough that they can be printed on paper.
Some wallets allow private keys to be imported without generating any transactions while other wallets or services require that the private key be swept. When a private key is swept, a transaction is broadcast that sends the balance controlled by the private key to a new address in the wallet. Just as with any other transaction, there is risk of swept transactions to be double-spending
Before getting started with importing your wallet’s private keys, let’s clarify three important definitions.
Backup: A file containing a wallet’s private key information. Backups can be exported from a wallet or imported to a wallet.
Export: The process of creating a file containing a wallet’s private key data. Exported keys can be imported to a new/different wallet to give access to the Bitcoins associated with the exported private key(s).
Import: The process of gaining control of Bitcoins via an exported backup. Wallets can import private keys via text files or QR code scanning.
Bitcoins are not stored locally on your phone or laptop. They are stored on the blockchain and you use a Bitcoin wallet to access the coins for sending/receiving the cryptocurrency. This means if you lose your phone or buy a new laptop you can access your bitcoin by importing your key(s) from a previously exported backup.
With a backup, you are able to recover your bitcoin at any time by importing the private keys associated with that wallet from the backup. This is why it is imperative that users take the time to create a backup of their wallet before adding bitcoin to it. For more on creating a backup, please see our Bitcoin.com wallet guide.
If you have not already done so, please go ahead and backup your wallet. This process is covered in detail in the guide on how to use the Bitcoin.com wallet. If you do not backup your wallet and store this information somewhere safe you run the risk of losing all bitcoins on that address in the event that you lose or damage the device on which your wallet is installed. Once you have a backup, you are ready to proceed.
