Title: How to put specific text in the Coinbase? Post by: jimoc on September 17, 2013, 10:54:16 PM Hi all,
I'm just messing about with the miner code and I was wondering, how would I put a specific message into the coinbase if i manage to mine a block? Title: Re: How to put specific text in the Coinbase?

You'd have to put the specific message into the coinbase BEFORE you mine the block. Title: Re: How to put specific text in the Coinbase?

If the pool uses bitcoind for block assembly, they probably use a similar method. If the pool has custom software that builds the block, that software probably handles the coinbase too. |
