Is it possible to mine this coin with 960 MH instead of 2 GH? I know that's what the guide said, but I was just wondering if it was possible to do it with less memory... I'm new to mining in general so I'm not sure what to do.

Specs of my computer:
Windows XP
AMD Athlon 64
NVIDIA GeForce 6150 LE
~960 MH of RAM

Guys,
I just started Solo Mining on ethpool and could use some help...


My hashing seems to be constant at 20mh.

I see the Get work happening every new block...

But I sometimes, I see some shares with the message SOLUTION FOUND! then Getting Submitted AND ACCEPTED to ethpool.org.

Is that a block?
Or just a Valid share but 'maybe' not 'worthy' of the difficulty? How can I know i've really hit a block?? Could you please enlight me?

Site's down Sad

Can anyone find the tutorial?  Or would this guide essentially be the same if I'm running Win7?

I can't seem to find it, either, tried yesterday, too, link/page seems dead ... nothing at that site,

I'm looking for Ubuntu walkthrough, and also some info about storing the resulting mined ETH in a wallet, or how that works. It appears it is somehow stored online, was looking to see if it can be kept in a wallet like BTC or LTC to keep it securely away from the mining rig, once a good amount is accumulated. Any suggestions?

I downloaded the client from the link mellorbo provided, right now is syncing the eth blockchain, will provide hashrate of my R9 270 when it finishes downloading. Quick question, does the miner use the CPU too?

Please let us now how much you earn.I got my R9 270 mining monero, but it is making not enough to cover electricity.

BTW when I open this page i get an error https://thebtcpool.com/how-to-mine-ethereum-extremely-easy/

I use chrome?

Thanks again Tanoury, really helpful and easy to understand guides you shared, it's very much appreciated.

Bitcoinhopper, something is definitely wrong with that link, I am not sure if it is trustworthy, I do hope I'm wrong about that...

The original link posted by Beast is dead, tried it a few times and got a blank white screen and loading icon continuously spinning for a while  it looked like it had stopped loading after 2 seconds leaving me looking at a white screen, but something was definitely loading or going on behind the scenes, as it never timed out... next thing I know, my browser was hijacked.

I am not sure if it came through clicking that link, Has anyone else had a similar problem with that link? The only other sites I visited outside of my normal pages that day were the link at the begining of this thread, coinbase.com and poliniex. I know the latter 2 are safe. Can anyone check the link to the btcpool.com for malware, and is it a legit site? I spent 2 days trying to get rid of the trojan on my laptop, even had to get into the registry to get my computer back to normal.

Anyhow, I hope it didnt come from there, I just cant think of any other foreign or new sites I had visited in that week, except the 3 I listed. Thanks

According to this calculator You should be earning around 20$ a month with one card, so same situation. No profit, but fun. So mine what You believe in, for support, for fun...  Wink

Here's another tutorial.  The article is pretty outdated now, but all the links work & it should help you get on your feet pretty easily Smiley

No. The Ethereum mining needs at least 4GB of memory.  I do not think Windows XP will work. You need at least 64 bit operating system. Your graphics card is too old.

That is not a block. It is just the "block" for the small task sent to you by the pool. It is valid share. Some times, the display will show something like mined a block.

Is it possible to mine Ethereum in 1 core xeon vps?

If yes, how many hash i can get from 1 core?

You COULD.  You wouldn't earn much.

I have two older CPUs mining away because why not (and because I'm waiting on replacement GPUs).

I earn in 30 days right now approximately less than .5 ETH (yes 1/2 of one) as I'm pool mining.  I'd never find a block solo that way.

It is basically not worth it.  I just keep them going for the sake of it until I can get a little hash going.

If you're running windows you can pick up some real simple clients here:

https://github.com/ethereum/webthree-umbrella/releases

It'll install quite a few items but really if you're mining to a pool all you need to run is the ethminer client (which is packaged in here too).

Do some reading here:

https://forum.ethereum.org

Look at the mining subforum and you'll find a number of solid pools and each pool generally has instructions that will help you mine to that pool.

Do you pay for the electricity? I think it is not very efficient to mine with CPU for ethereum. GPU is much better.

Hey guys, so i would like to start mining ethereum. Actually i did, but i cant find how to setup my miners better.
I was mining x11 before and it was all in the conf file, so my question is - how do you do the fine tuning in the ethereum miner?

I am talking about windows  and my cards are 280x and 7950

There are quite a few setting tutorial in this forum. For Ethereum, there is no intensity to set. It is quite standard.
