Title: Namecoind question. Post by: Demogorgonz on September 28, 2013, 10:19:48 PM Hello,
Today i decided to download namecoind for linux. At this time of thread creation my namecoind is syncing blocks. I have found this page http://dot-bit.org/InstallAndConfigureNamecoin So i made a config : Code: rpcuser=myusername Now my question is how can i mine,i mean what parameters do i have to input in my miner ? Will my miner mine if i input only url and port in format : http://localhost:8336 without username/pass ? If so,which address will be credited with namecoins ? I have 2 accounts,default blank and "myuser",each having different address of course :). I just can't wait for namecoind to sync,and i must admit that i am impatient .. Looking forward for response. Best regards. :) Title: Re: Namecoind question. Post by: TheSpiral on September 28, 2013, 11:29:53 PM Now my question is how can i mine,i mean what parameters do i have to input in my miner ? You're planning on solo mining Namecoin at a difficulty of 75 million? Can I ask why?Will my miner mine if i input only url and port in format : http://localhost:8336 without username/pass ?

I just can't wait for namecoind to sync,and i must admit that i am impatient .. Looking forward for response. Best regards. :) Wouldn't it just be better to join a merge-mining pool like bitparking, eligius, bitminter, or slush? Title: Re: Namecoind question.

My plan is to run namecoind for wallet purpose,however i have never ran "coin"d before and it would be interesting to learn more about it. I might switch to some other coins which have linux release with daemon and server vars.. Tho i can achieve up to 5-10GH/s,and it could be profitable until difficulty raise.. Can you answer on my question above ? Also,can you suggest me which coins to mine which are tradable on btc-e for example ? Best regards. Title: Re: Namecoind question.

Don't forget p2pool, quite easy to set up BTC-NMC merge-mining on it.Now my question is how can i mine,i mean what parameters do i have to input in my miner ? Not without username/pass, Will my miner mine if i input only url and port in format : http://localhost:8336 without username/pass ? use those you entered in your config Code: rpcuser=myusername which address will be credited with namecoins ? Assuming you're solo-mining a new address will automagically be created for each block found.Title: Re: Namecoind question.

Best regards. 5 GH/s at 75,473,386 difficulty will take 2 years and 20 days to find a block if you solo mine. A block of Namecoin is worth about 0.1885 or $23.90. $23.90 for more than 2 years of solo mining.... Why? I'd recommend joining a merge-mine pool if you want Namecoin. Bitparking will get you Bitcoin, Namecoin, Devcoin, i0coin, ixcoin, and a few others all at the same time.
For solo mining, it would look like this: Code: -o localhost:8336 -u myusername -p mypass Title: Re: Namecoind question.
