Title: [SIC] SIFCOIN Cloud VPS Mining 300+ kH/s on 8 CPU Cores - mine while Diff is low
Post by: ocminer on January 07, 2014, 11:00:00 PM
Sifcoin is a coin quark was based on, read more about it here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=240894.0

It is quite easy to mine it currently as diff is quite low:

1. Sign up for a DigitalCloud Account here (https://www.digitalocean.com/?refcode=3a84c9e7fe59).

2. Top up your account with PayPal for at least 10 $

3. Choose "Create Droplet" and start a 8 CPU Droplet with Ubuntu 13.10 x64 in Amsterdam (Country does not matter)

4. Log into your Droplet using SSH and download the Miner from here:

Windows (pre-compiled):
https://mega.co.nz/#!rdJQxLIA!RFYQRA3Mpx2dtL_wW8JLzy7q9sorvzlTukB7vVdtW8M

Linux (Source):
https://github.com/ig0tik3d/sifcoin-miner

5. Register at https://sif.suprnova.cc for an account and set up a worker under "My Workers".

6. Start your worker using the a.bat for windows, replace worker.username and worker.password with your details before.

For Linux do:

Code:
sudo apt-get install build-essential libcurl4-openssl-dev zip automake screen
git clone https://github.com/ig0tik3d/sifcoin-miner.git
cd sifcoin-miner
chmod +x autogen.sh
./autogen.sh
./configure CFLAGS="-O3"
make

now enter a "screen" for getting the thread into the background:

Code:
screen

Start your miner:

Code:
./minerd -a sif -o stratum+tcp://sic.suprnova.cc:7777 -u worker.username -p worker.passsword
You can now put this thread into the background by pressing CTRL-A and then "d" (without the "")
 
7. You should now see something like this:

Code:
root@sic1:~/sifcoin-miner# ./minerd -a sif -o stratum+tcp://sic.suprnova.cc:7777 -u suprnova.sic1 -p x

8. Check your hashrate on the pool, it should reflect your minerrate +-50kh/s

You're now mining sifcoin !

Best would be to ask this question here:

Difficulty is rising through the roof , I suspect gpu mining is taking place. Either that or one of the most disrespected coins ever that deserves respect is going to hit an exchange. Even if i am wrong about both it's only a matter of time.

jump in and grab your coins before cpu mining is no longer worth it

Thanks for the instructions ... was mining solo for a while, but recently was only getting 1 coin every 2 days.  Not really getting much out of the pool, but better than nothing.

I see you active on the Groestl Coin thread, 

I think it should be easy to port sg miner to sif

Any ideas ??

, oh btw

run Groestl at -g 1 -w 264
big big boost on my 7970

We need an exchange !

It will surely work, we need to write to the author of sghminer, he'll surely implemented it.

The bigger problem is, Sifcoin must go on an exchange !

I agree , Simple Inflation Coin does not get the attention it deserves.
No exchanges have it listed.
Personally I mine coins to hold but most want to exchange them for btc.
I have tried to follow the original Russian thread.
The client has never been updated with checkpoints and really should be since launched last summer.
Hopefully these things will happen.
You and I appear to be the only people who really support the coin based on posts but there are always lots of nodes & people mining. Kind of weird.
