Attempting to setup mining dogecoin has got to be one of the most frustrating things I have ever done.
I have done everything that would seemingly get me Doge, I have mined for around 13 hours total on 2 different P2Pools and yet, I still read 0 Doge.
I downloaded CGminer, and rain with "Localminers" using the address DBb9ATb7scEYATS58sukyngxtTq6skcPhf. This was when I had all the settings on CGminer to be automatic, so I wasn't running very hard, but I still mined for around 11 hours on it. I came back to my computer to see no Doge. I make a post on the forums, get called a troll for that address because it was the "pools address" ( I don't even know what that means).
So I made a new address, DF1DMfttyDX4tbD5CAUEimtNJBVLZGGEw1, and updated my cgminer to be running on a difficulty of 18 with my Gigabyte 7950. I attempted to mine on the same server for at least 3 hours, still 0 doge. I then figured this afternoon maybe it is the pool, so I switch pools, mined for a few hours this afternoon, woke up to 0 Doge.
All this work, and nothing is even happening. It's like going to the gym and doing a full workout but without any muscle gain. Everyone says this is so fun... but it has been nothing for stress trying to get this to work.
Please help........
