So I'm fairly new to Cryptocurrency (Dec2017). After logging into Coinbase and transferring $1000 in BTC to GDAX and then transferring that $1000 BTC to Cryptopia I find that Byteball trading has been "broken" for months on that shit exchange. Tons of posts about people holding Bytes they can't retrieve. So I send the money back to my web wallet and get hit $10 in fees (FUCK CRYPTOPIA). So I google other options and see I can buy on Bittrex. Go and try to create an account but they aren't accepting new users. Long story short, I spend an hour and a half only to not own any GBYTE and lose $10 in BTC. I'm no whale and that attempted purchase accounts for half of my holdings.
I would really like to try solo mining with my GPU rig. I'm new and after a ton of research most of what I'm finding is very dated. Anyone willing to help explain it to a newbie? Let's say I wanted to solo mine Alqo. I have read I need to create a config file but I don't understand the RPC things or where to find these values for different coins. Anyone? I'd throw some coins at someone who explained it and helped me get going.
I'd love some help setting up my ccminer in solo mode. I only have 4 cards and don't mind if I never hit a block. Just can't seem to find any info on how to set it up. Any help appreciated.
I've been mining at Alqo Org pool for about 12 hrs and while I'm seeing payments on the right, my wallet is empty. I am synced to the Network. Any suggestions?
