GPU Mining
Existing third party GPU mining clients can be used.
Such as CPUMiner-Multi, ccminer-cryptonight, Claymore CryptyNote GPU (which supports GPU mining) and others.
We are working on putting out GPU mining instructions, for those that need them.

Can we mine spot with the new futurebit moonlander 2 USB stick. 

[BenFranklin]

We will need to look into it.   That usb was developed for scrypt based coins.  We are cryptonote like monero

[theferretts]

is there a timetable for getting listed on an exchange?

[BenFranklin]

Its actively being worked to get it  listed on an exchange.

I lost all the SPOT I mined. My wallet is empty. What should I do?

This is what I'v got in the log:

2018-Feb-02 11:00:41.481560 INFO    [104.238.149.213:19497 OUT] SYNCHRONIZED OK

This happens when the simplewallet is opened and not exited properly

You need to delete the blockchain data store. and then resync the wallet to the blockchain.  Do not delete your wallet or you will lose everything.



Sent this to another user...If it doesnt work or need some help let me know


ok, the way I was able to replicate the issue, was that the wallet had been opened and was left open.  It had been recieving notifications and another instance of the wallet was opened, which opened from the last saved state.

The two instances working on the same wallet file screwed things up.

So to fix this

we are going to force reloading the blockchain of the node.

Step 1) --stop all instances of the node, wallet, miner

Step 2) Find the directory where the blockchain is stored and delete it
Important (do this on the computer where you open your wallet)


On windows
It should be under your app data folder.  This is a specific folder to your computer.  Generally located in the path below

C:\Users\your-logged-in-user\AppData\Roaming\SPOT

On linux/mac it should be in your profile directory under the folder .SPOT

3) Next start up the SPOT network node

let it syncronize

Once Syncronized -> Open the wallet and  type reset which will reread the entire block chain.. not just where it last left off.

that will give you every block that was sent to your wallet

[uragunda]

I will follow this. Thank you.

Mining is getting more diffcult for the past few days 

[uragunda]

Mining is getting more diffcult for the past few days 

Yes I think so. I've been running my miner for more than an hour today but nothing came in to my wallet. My CPU is running in 6 threads.

[uragunda]

oh finally something came in...yes!

[perlakung]

Good for you, its been hours now im still not getting any block. looks like there is an increase on miners

[uragunda]

It halted again. The spot config says:

I have no idea what is happening.

[rmh01]

I want to compile the node from source, where can i find it?

[HansHagberg]

Is there a mining pool somewhere?

If it is a cryptonote, you can use any Monero guide and software.

I may be wrong cuz im not mining it right now. I just got here...

Did i read it right?
is there a 33% pre mined?

Hey, i do need some offline addres generator. I do have  security problems....
And is there a node to be used?
Or  pools?
