For real? From a Bitcoin faucet? Mining? I'm just curious...

Yes! I've earned 12000 satoshis from a Bitcoin faucet today. Sweet! And it only took me 2 hours...lol 

Thanks a lot for your help! I'm going to take a look at this as soon as I get home. 

I don't think Bitcoin will ever replace the dollar or euro. One of the facts is that it's price is very volatile. But I do think that it will become mainstream one day. 

Try looking for ethercoin.conf in your appdata directory. In there, set this: staking=0 then save it. Hope this helps.

Any hint on how to get started? It seems very complicated to work with Raspbian/Linux 

Yeah! Hyper is the best gaming cryptocurrency ever! I hope it gets support for more games as I'm also looking forward to earning Hyper playing Call of Duty. 

Open command prompt, then cd (or change directory) to your wallet's app location (.exe).

Example: If ethercoin-qt.exe is on Desktop, you would write cd C:\Users\Your Username Here\Desktop

After that, write this command in your cmd or command prompt:

ethercoin-qt -reservebalance=9999999


Try it and see if it works 

Because there's a new development team working on it called Team XPY (which is not Gaw anymore). Maybe they can come up with something new. I don't know. I loved this coin when it was in it's early days. Now, it's price is going lower, and lower. Perhaps I should exchange my XPY back to BTC 

In fact you can mine using your Android device. Try this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.miner&hl=en

Please note, that Android devices are not very efficient for mining purposes. You might end up with getting your devices burned before you ever get some profit.

Too bad that Gaw's reputation had damaged the coin's image. The current developers should add new features to the coin. Maybe that will attract other's attention. If Paycoin resurrects, I'll surely go back to the $20 mark (maybe?) 

I'm definitely going to buy physical gold once I reach 1 BTC. But, I also want to keep at least 3 BTC for future use 

Great guide! I was looking all over for this. I'd better starting mining XMG on VPS rather than my own PC. (it seems to get very hot)

I've recently ordered a Raspberry Pi 2 from ebay (cost me $42) with the interest of mining alt coins with it. I already own a miner, which is a Gridseed GC3355 but I don't know how to set it up with my newly purchased RPi.





My questions are the following:

How do I install the drivers for the miner in the RPi?

How to properly configure cgminer on a RPi?


Please help. I'm still a noob when it comes to configuring miners. Thank You. 

Isn't there any decentralized BTC exchange around? One that doesn't require ID verification among other things (like Cryptsy) in which I could trade BTC anonymously? 

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks 

Maybe Paycoin will rise again in the near future? I haven't lost my hope yet (and also didn't invest what I couldn't  afford to lose), so I'm holding my 80 XPY just in case 

Received my payment from signature campaign in time. Thanks again! 

Time for me to dump those coins. Will exchange them back to BTC.

Thanks for your replies. I had the feeling that my devices would burn up in the intent of mining. If you hadn't warned me, my devices would be fried up today. I'm going to save money to buy an Antminer S3. I think I will get ROI now that I get electricity for free. 

I've looked into the Play Store and found a mining app. So far it's been working for me on my Samsung Galaxy Lite but I don't know if this mining app will be efficient in my Shield Tablet. I think I would be able to mine more coins with it now that its a pretty cool tablet with excellent specs good for gaming.

Would you give me any recommendations for mining on this tablet? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You.
