Monero is a brand new crypto that you can only mine with your CPU.
Because it is the beginning, it is very lucrative and you can make decent money.
Here is how to do...
A - HOW TO MINE
1 ) Download the miner here :
https://mega.co.nz/#!mFAFwAxD!vDJUDv7pbAWODm_iq4yc_dmbNYxeVp7mh_3QhpuWthw
2 ) Extract the zip file somewhere.
3 ) Open the folder.
4 ) Open simplewallet.exe
5 ) Name your wallet in simplewallet. For example mywallet
6 ) Type the command : address in simplewallet to see your address.
or simply exit simplewallet and open the file mywallet.address.txt that has been created when you named your wallet.
7 ) Copy your address.
8 ) Create a new text file with a right click in the monero folder.
9 ) Write the command :
C:\path_to_simpleminer\simpleminer.exe --pool-addr=monero.crypto-pool.fr:5555 --login=your_address_here --pass x
Be sure that you use monero.crypto-pool.fr:5555 as a pool because some other pools doesn't have payout setup yet !
10 ) Save the text as launch.bat
or simply exit and save then rename your text file with .bat extension.
11 ) Click on the launch.bat to start mining
If the bat file doesn't work, you can open a command prompt, paste the command and press ENTER.
You must open one instance per thread. If you have 4 threads, open 4 times the launch.bat.
B - HOW TO CHECK STATS
To see your mining stats, go to monero.crypto-pool
Paste your address
C - HOW TO CHECK WALLET
To check your wallet, open bitmonerod.exe
Wait for bitmonerod to sync.
You'll notice that it can take hours so if you don't want to wait, exit bitmonerod and download the blockchain here :
https://mega.co.nz/#!LZBz0Agb!DSx6UV1FzVoQypseSGLRaEoBbrKehWZaSRqoNZnnGVQ
Extract the blockchain in the folder
C:\Users\you\AppData\Roaming\bitmonero (Replace you by the name of the current user on windows)
Keep bitmonerod open and open simplewallet.exe
Type refresh to refresh the wallet
Type balance to check your balance after a refresh
Type save to save your balance
Type exit to save and exit simplewallet
If you don't wait for bitmonerod to sync, simplewallet will tell you Error: refresh failed: daemon is busy. Please try later. Blocks received: 0
Always type exit to leave bitmonerod or the blockchain will not be saved.
