Title: Solomining from litecoin wallet Post by: navelgazer on April 06, 2013, 08:09:36 PM I just tried to pool mine on ozcoin, x-pool and on give-me-ltc but after having no luck on any of those and failing to configure properly my scryptminer (CPU mining) I just hitted the "solo mining" option on the litecoin e-wallet. Is that ok? Am I wasting resources or time?
Thanks. Title: Re: Solomining from litecoin wallet Post by: vm1990 on April 06, 2013, 08:14:28 PM youll find some litecoins......... eventually but really its just a waste of time the idea of a pool is many people = better chance of finding a new block
have a look at litecoinpool.org they have good instructions on there website Title: Re: Solomining from litecoin wallet Post by: keccak512 on May 19, 2013, 11:22:46 PM Δεν μπoρείτε να
Title: Re: Solomining from litecoin wallet Post by: theonlyfox on May 19, 2013, 11:34:42 PM I dont believe the mining option in the Qt wallet will do GPU mining... I think its only CPU. The better way is to set up QT as a server and then attach cgminer or similar to it. If you are running multiple machines then you will need some private pooling scripts running like http://poolserverj.org (http://poolserverj.org).
You can find instructions on setting up the QT wallet for solo mining here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=83371.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=83371.0) Pools are still a better bet. You may loose a little in fees but you can see some payoff for your work almost instantly. http://www.litecoinpool.org (http://www.litecoinpool.org) is by far the best pool but I believe registration is still locked. You can join chan #litecoinpool on http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#litecoinpool (http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=#litecoinpool) and ask pooler if he will let you in. |
