Title: litecoin Post by: patnor1011 on March 19, 2013, 08:27:14 AM Ok. I tried and currently mine for bitcoin but without dedicated hardware it is rather slow. (I am working on improvement)
I mine using GUIminer and do not have any issues with anything at this point. I wanted to give it a try to check litecoins and here is where I am completely lost. Spent hours searching, reading, going through pool to pool. I am trying to mine using gpu and have no luck to find pool which would explain to noob lika I am how to set up client and start. I had absolutely no problem follow slush's pool for bitcoin mining but for litecoins I have zero luck. Is there pool or somebody who can help me to get guiminer work and mine litecoins? Title: Re: litecoin Post by: Krabby on March 19, 2013, 09:04:09 AM I would also be interested in this.
I'm not too sure of the process, would like to know if the hashing technique is the same. Title: Re: litecoin Post by: gooryheta on March 19, 2013, 09:19:51 AM Consolidated Litecoin Mining Guide for 5xxx, 6xxx, and 7xxx GPUs

http://cryptojunky.com/blog/2013/03/12/absolute-beginners-guide-to-litecoin-mining/ site may be having problems right now heres a cached version here (http://cc.bingj.com/cache.aspx?q=litecoin+mining+beginner&d=282457428270&mkt=en-AU&setlang=en-AU&w=g1jooim7-NQInlW3-sEcSDo-AEKDql1y) Title: Re: litecoin Post by: patnor1011 on April 01, 2013, 01:48:18 AM Thanks, I checked all this and I am staying with scryptminer gui for a while as I needed to get new hardware before I even consider to start GPU mining. So for now I only have fun while in work and have free power with small cpu mining.

Just download scryptminer GUI and join a pool?Title: Re: litecoin Post by: virtualmaster on April 01, 2013, 05:18:52 PM I tried also solo mining with 6.3 client it is but showing to me :

Pretty frustrating, so I happily switched back to BTC. Title: Re: litecoin Post by: Pentel on April 01, 2013, 06:41:30 PM I think a lot more people are mining Litecoin now the cost is 1LTC= $1.40 (as of writing).
My pool had 960 people online must days, now it's over a 1050 and climbing! The KH/s as jumped about 100,000 WOW. |
