21  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] [PENG] Penguincoin - Launching 4PM GMT - 02/02/2014 (TODAY) on: February 02, 2014, 09:42:35 AM
Pools should be set up prior to launch and this can only be done if dev will provide all necessary info and source...

Otherwise it will be another chaotic launch. I do not know how much time a pool operator needs to get it set up, but the operators should have what they need before launch.

Exactly.

It should take about 15 to 20 minutes once we get the source. The only thing we lack is the source. Once we get the source, we can compile the daemon, load up the configuration and take off.

This is definitely worth mining =) Hope it will stick with its core value instead of just being another alt coin.

It used to be that the way one diversified their wealth was to break it into three main parts:
1. Cash
2. Gold
3. Artwork

Along those lines, I've taken to the 21st century version:
1. Bitcoin (of course.)
2. Gold (still strong!)
3. Magic Cards (games are this generation's art.)

That's just me though.  How are you all diversifying YOUR holdings?

For the Magic Cards, it is best to keep sealed booster boxes =)

If you want to do some cpu mining, then you probably want to take a look at minerd

27  Other / Beginners & Help / Quick guide to compile a wallet on: January 18, 2014, 10:57:53 PM
Hello all,

I have been lurking here for a while, I am joining this forum because I decided to get more involved with the crypto-currency movement. It might be one of the biggest revloution that we will see in our lifetime.

I would like to offer something useful as my first post. A dozen of alternate cryptocurrencies pops up everyday. Some doesn't even come with a wallet. Here is a quick guide to compile your own wallet on Ubuntu, we will be using Litecoin as an example, but it would work with most other scrypt-based coin if you have the source files.

1.) OS Requirement

Make sure you have Ubuntu 12.04 or up (both Desktop and server version are fine, but you probably won't need this guide if you use the server version)

2.) Yes, we need to use Terminal =)

http://askubuntu.com/questions/38162/what-is-a-terminal-and-how-do-i-open-and-use-it

or

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Kvgbu61jFg

3.) Compile the Litecoin Wallet

Type in or copy/paste all these commands in your terminal to compile litecoind, the Litecoin Daemon (If you are new to the terminal commands, just make sure you press enter after each line of command. The sudo commands will require your authentication)

=== Beginning of Commands ===

sudo apt-get -y update

sudo apt-get -y install git

cd ~

sudo apt-get -y install build-essential libboost-all-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libdb5.1-dev libdb5.1++-dev

sudo git clone git://github.com/litecoin-project/litecoin.git

cd litecoin/src

sudo make -f makefile.unix USE_UPNP=-

sudo cp litecoind /usr/bin

litecoind

cd ~/.litecoin/

sudo touch litecoin.conf

sudo chown `whoami`:`whoami` litecoin.conf

sudo chmod 600 litecoin.conf

sudo echo 'server=1' >> litecoin.conf

sudo echo 'daemon=1' >> litecoin.conf

sudo echo 'rpcuser=username' >> litecoin.conf

sudo echo 'rpcpassword=password' >> litecoin.conf

sudo echo 'rpcport=9332' >> litecoin.conf

=== End of Commands ===

After the terminal executed all commands, you will see the output below:

server=1
daemon=1
rpcuser=username
rpcpassword=password
rpcport=9332

Feel free to change the rpcuser and rpcpassword here, but it doesn't really matter because litecoind will only listen to your localhost by default.

4.) Getting the Litecoin Receiving Address out of Litecoin Daemon (litecoind)

a.) First we want to make sure litecoind is running first:

=== Beginning of Commands ===

cd ~
litecoind

=== End of Commands ===

b.) Get your Litecoin Receiving Address:

=== Beginning of Commands ===

cd ~
litecoind listreceivedbyaddress 0 true

=== End of Commands ===

You might get a return of "error: couldn't connect to server", that is because your litecoind is not connected to the network yet. Wait for a couple Minutes and repeat the "litecoind listreceivedbyaddress 0 true" command above again you will eventually see something like:

// Keep in mind this is from my litecoind, your returned info will be different

{
    "address" : "Lg6k48xansEUEenA24Zr6Eiru5qLupWFVx",
    "account" : "",
    "amount" : 0.00000000,
    "confirmations" : 0,
    "txid" : [
    ]
}

Congrats! You can now receive Litecoin with your compiled wallet. In this case, Lg6k48xansEUEenA24Zr6Eiru5qLupWFVx is my first Litecoin receiving address.

IF you want to learn more about how to use litecoind (Litecoin Daemon), you should look at the Origina Bitcoin API call list:

https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Original_Bitcoin_client/API_calls_list

Basically Litecoin and all other alt-coins follow that original Bitcoin API_calls_list

Hope this help someone out =)
