Hi,
I've never mined before so have a few questions.
Firstly, would I be able to mine DigitalCoins using Red Fury ASICs? (If so, i'd only start using one 2.2GH/s ASIC).
Additionally, would I be able to run the script on my MacBook?
Are there any existing tutorials/run-throughs?
And what is recommended?
P2Ppools or Pushpools?

Thanks

DGC is a scrypt coin, it can't be mined with an ASIC (yet...)

For more info on mining DGC, i'd recommend going here http://digitalcoin.co/forums/

Hello,

You can't mine DGC on ASIC's but you could on the macbook. The Mac likely has an NVIDIA GPU however, which means you'll get very low hash rates. If you can get any AMD graphics cards cheap, they pay themselves off in a couple of weeks at today's prices.

We have tutorials at digitalcoin.co, if you need more help you can visit us at the forums(digitalcoin.co/forums) or even better, come into the IRC channel: #digitalcoin on freenode and we can help you directly.

Thanks.
So are there any pre-built rigs or other things similar to ASICS that I could mine DigitalCoin with?
I don't want to use my MacBook as I can't let anything happen to it (Got all my work, stuff etc)

Graphics cards are the best thing at the moment and likely for a long time to come. Checkout any script mining comparison for the best cards.
