Title: How do I solo mine memecoins or any other altcoin
Post by: manav1112 on October 16, 2013, 09:22:30 AM
Hi,
I want to specifically learn how to mine memecoins, but im guessing since there are not too many memecoin miners, how do I solo mine with any alt coin (im assuming the process will be similar). Please help  :)

my cgminer comes stuck at probing for an alive pool. Is it becuase i have to wait for my wallet to synchronise?
my config file:
rpcuser=manav1112
rpcpassword=[removed]
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=9050
daemon=1
server=1
gen=0

block_nTime=1317972665
block_nNonce=2084524493

Also mememiner-qt wasnt there, the folder was on my desktop so i copied and pasted the files from there to the appdata folder

I changed the config to this as it says on the meme coin website but it doesnt work still, now the wallet cant connect to the server, and not syncronise  :-\
rpcuser=manav1112
rpcpassword=[removed]
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=7785
port=7784
daemon=1
server=1
gen=0
addnode=60.230.205.245

EDIT: Realised the calculator I was using was wrong, no point in mining memecoins :/ I almost thought a dream come true from the amounts that i got from here:
