Beginners Guide to CPU mining DogeCoins - Now with images!

[SuchDogeMuchCoin]

The mining sometimes works and I would get coins but a lot of the time, it would stop working and say cannot connect to server1...etc. Is there a fix to this? I am not getting as much of an output as I expected. It is not as efficient as I see in other people and I would maybe have a successful output 1/10 times. Anyone have a solution?

why this error ?

[JustJeff]

Hadi, You are attempting to log on to "server1.cryptovalley.com:3333" as "philipplezo" with a worker named "1" whose password is "X".
From the message displayed, one or more of these items is incorrect.

I keep getting timed out and failed to connect to server "No error"
Any suggestions?

Code:

minerd --url=stratum+tcp://server1.cryptovalley.com:3333 --userpass=CaptainGonzo.1:x
pause

Same here, mining since 20 hours and hundreds of those.



By the way, I am a newbie, what does that meaning accepted ?
And how can I know if I will get at least one DOGE ?

Thanks,
Eric

Best guide ever! Thanks mate!!!

[Dathaeus]

No settings like cgminer for cpu miner?  Intensity, clock speeds, etc?

[mrl1994]

Im getting a similar error here, but apparently my connection is being refused over and over again.

"Stratum Connection Failed: failed connect to server server1.cryptovalley.com:3333; Connection refused. "


Help ?

[dogechode]

not to be the partypooper here but... is it really at all useful to cpu mine dogecoins at this point? The difficulty is high enough that you will barely make much even with 1 pretty decent GPU doing many times the hashes/sec your CPUs are

[mrl1994]

Hey guys, I changed pool and worked for me. Maybe its a problem w/ doge.cryptovalley or something..

[Katrina Elisse Caudle]

I was having trouble connecting until I changed the pool. This tutorial is awesome. Thanks again!

[mrl1994]

Hey guys, could you explain a little more about the mining process? I mean, I dont understand quite much of whats REALLY happening there..

eg:

Stratum detected new block
Thread 0: 42423 hashes, 4.122 yhash/s

(..)

accepted:135/140 (96.40%), 2.04% (yay!!)



..what happens when it gets to 100%?


Sorry for the silly questions, but I would love to understand more of whats really happening there, lol

Everyone has a different definition of "worth it"
I CPUmine for 40 Doges a day, Is it worth it?
If Doges go to $10, 40 X 10 = 400, $400 a day is worth it.
If you need to sell your Doges @ 0.00021973 to pay for electricity,
well, no, it's not worth it, I suppose.
BTW: I mine BTC @30gh and think that is worth it also,
again, I see this as investment in my future, not a paying job today.

135/140 means of the 140 shares submitted 135 are accepted thus the 96.40% acceptance it won't get to 100.. Let it run and don't worry about it unless the % gets way bad like 80's

[mrdeposit]

I tried it with hashfaster on a throwback laptop just to test things and this guide worked! Although this throwback won't be used for mining.
