Title: [BBL] [X15] BitBlock Cloud VPS Mining CPU Cores - mine while Diff is low !
Post by: ocminer on June 26, 2014, 11:30:37 AM
Bitblock is a new X15 based cryptocurrency, read more about it here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=665159.0

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, you can use more CPU's too)

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

Windows (pre-compiled):
https://www.dropbox.com/s/hnleulsps90opt9/miner.rar

Linux (Source):
https://github.com/bitblockproject/Bitblock-CPUminer

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

6. Start your worker:


For Linux do:

Code:
sudo apt-get install build-essential libcurl4-openssl-dev zip automake screen libjansson-dev
git clone https://github.com/bitblockproject/Bitblock-CPUminer
cd Bitblock-CPUminer
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 bitblock -o stratum+tcp://bbl.suprnova.cc:3663 -u worker.username -p worker.passsword
You can now put this thread into the background by pressing CTRL-A and then "d" (without the "")
 

For Windows:

Open a DOS Box where you've downloaded the CPU Miner and:

Code:
minerd -a bitblock -o stratum+tcp://bbl.suprnova.cc:3663 -u worker.username -p worker.passsword

7. You should now see something like this:

Code:
root@mine1:~/miner# ./minerd -a bitblock -o stratum+tcp://bbl.suprnova.cc:3663 -u suprnova.mine1 -p x

[2014-01-07 17:57:19] thread 0: 2097152 hashes, 36.09 khash/s (yay!!!)

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

You're now mining Bitblock !


Remarks:

There are several BitBlock Pools, I've used Suprnova (https://bbl.suprnova.cc) for testing, at the time of writing there is also HashHarder:
http://www.hashharder.com/x15/bitblock

It sometimes takes quite long for an accepted share (a yay!!!), this is (probably) due to the whirlpool algo in the X15 algo as it is
"hard" to cpu's. Give it some time until you see the first yay!!!

Since CentOS/RPM based distros havent been covered as far as dependencies go, here is a brief guide for those like me who have a bunch of idling centos boxes around:

Setting up BitBlock on CentOS (and RPM based distributions):

git clone https://github.com/bitblockproject/Bitblock-CPUminer
yum -y install zip automake autoconf screen jansson-devel libcurl-devel glibc-devel gcc
cd Bitblock-CPUminer
chmod +x autogen.sh
./autogen.sh
./configure CFLAGS="-O3"
make

The rest is pretty much similar:

Start a screen session with simply "screen", and enter the following to start mining.

./minerd -a bitblock -o stratum+tcp://stratum1.suchpool.pw:3303 -u worker.username -p worker.passsword

Feel free to come test with us aswell as with Suprnova. We need more good pools supporting X15 already!

Any way to mine with GPU ?

why do you want to mine a coin, you didn't even bother to read the thread ?

Waiting for X15 GPU miner.

what digitalocean packet you pick to get 50khas?
how many X15 coin average receive earn per day? because i've try mining with cpu-cloud and isn't worth

don't do that, this is waste of money and Time. There is a GPU Miner out and with a GPU miner you get easy 2.5 Mh/S

Is there any link for download GPU miner?
