Title: Hello All! Post by: thefatman82 on December 17, 2013, 05:57:56 PM Hello!
I'm new to cryptocurrency. I'm excited about getting involved in growing a portfolio of many forks. I know mining Bitcoins starting now at 0 is a bit of a stretch, but I wanted to start somewhere just to be mining. Does anyone know of a good beginner coin or share with low difficulty that I should look into instead? Thanks ahead for the advice! I downloaded a bitcoin wallet as part of my mining. 1CJWjhV8yTc7b865LmP7WJ6uepabKjQ69A Title: Re: Hello All! Post by: ajax3592 on December 17, 2013, 06:14:09 PM Hey! Welcome to the Cryptoland.
You might try mining DOGEcoins while you still can, they are bound to succeed. How many hashes are you getting by the way ? Title: Re: Hello All! Post by: Redbarron1992 on December 17, 2013, 06:18:59 PM You should check coinwarz.com to see the mining profitability and the difficulty,
I'm mining for fun most part too, so its nice to actually get some coins. Title: Re: Hello All! Post by: thefatman82 on December 18, 2013, 02:37:26 PM Hey! Welcome to the Cryptoland.

Better than the BTC .000000000000000000000000....... you get the point. I'm avg around 30khash/s on my desktop, and 5-8khash/s on my laptop. Are these pretty low? Title: Re: Hello All! Post by: alyx45 on December 18, 2013, 09:50:22 PM Hi I'm new to this also, just started yesterday using the MineWithCpu.bat . I can start the Dogecoin- wallet and it appears to sync just fine, as it shows
blocks downloading. I have tested the wallet and have 11.76 coins in there. However I can't seem to mine anything. I'm testing on a laptop with Intel Core i7-3450M @ 3.00 Ghz 8GB ram. (I know but it's just to test I don't care how slow just make sure it works) Here is what I did, 1. created wallet 2. joined pool 3. tested wallet successfully 4. edited the MineWithCpu.bat file with the folllowing> minerd -a scrypt -t 4 -s 6 -o stratum+tcp://stratum-eu.doge.luckyminers.com:3313 -u myuserid.myworker:mypassword 5. saved the changes to the .bat file 6. ran the .bat file results = the windows pops up and dissappears, the if I run minerd.exe file I get a command window output like the following [2013-12-18 15:44:46] Binding thread 0 to cpu 0 [2013-12-18 15:44:46] Binding thread 3 to cpu 3 [2013-12-18 15:44:46] 4 miner threads started, using 'scrypt' algorithm.

I have not mined anything. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? I'm a total newbie to mining. Title: Re: Hello All!

Copy the dogecoin.conf file from the folder and paste into C:\Users\{YOURUSER}\%AppData%\Roaming\Dogecoin\ The AppData folder is hidden - you'll need to enable "Show Hidden Folders" Title: Re: Hello All! Post by: alyx45 on December 18, 2013, 10:00:13 PM That is done as well. The contents of the Dogecoin.conf file is as shown below.
pcuser=doge rpcpassword=wow addnode=162.243.113.110 addnode=146.185.181.114 rpcport=22555 server=1 daemon=1 still get the error I noted above Thanks!!! Title: Re: Hello All! Post by: rigalosa on December 18, 2013, 10:06:26 PM So has anyone found any good pools to be part of?
I've heard about scams and really want to try to avoid ones that'll keep my Doge... |
