★★DigiByte|极特币★★[DGB]✔ Core v6.16.5.1 - DigiShield, DigiSpeed, Segwit

Nice guide. Couple of things I'd add is that theres no need to add txindex=1 into your conf feel free to leave it out. If you leave it out there's also no need to -reindex.

In the conf rather than use rpcallowip=* which opens up your wallet to connections outside your network you are far better off using rpcallowip=127.0.0.1

127.0.0.1 always points to localhost so you can use that instead of looking up your IP address with ipconfig

So Conf would become

Code:

rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcuser=abc
rpcpassword=zzz
server=1
daemon=1
debug=1
algo=scrypt
rpcport=14022
port=12024
addnode=74.208.230.160
addnode=69.164.198.161
addnode=66.228.56.115
addnode=106.187.37.124

and then your mining settings would be

Pool = 127.0.0.1:14022
username = abc
password = zzz

Miner is on my linux box, and wallet is on my windows box. I would have to put the miner IP instead of 127.0.0.1.

I don't think I have ever seen comprehensive instructions on how to solomine a coin. I've found bits and pieces on several sites, but none that I could follow from start to finish and get the complete sequence.

Over the past few days, I decided to try it out just to see if I could get it working, and I did! If anyone else is curious about how to do it, here are the steps I followed:

(Assuming your wallet is running on a Windows computer.)

1. Shut down your wallet.

2. In the C:\Users\<yourname>\AppData\Roaming\DigiByte folder, add a file called DigiByte.conf that contains this:

Code:

rpcallowip=*
rpcuser=abc
rpcpassword=zzz
server=1
daemon=1
txindex=1
debug=1
algo=scrypt
rpcport=14022
port=12024
addnode=74.208.230.160
addnode=69.164.198.161
addnode=66.228.56.115
addnode=106.187.37.124

3. Right-click the shortcut icon of your wallet
   a. choose Properties
   b. click the Shortcut tab
   c. in the Target, add -server to the end. (Example: "C:\Program Files\DigiByte\digibyte-qt.exe" -server)

4. Launch your wallet. It may reindex your blockchain, this can take awhile. Wait until this is done.

5. Go into the console of your wallet and type this and hit Enter: setgenerate true -1

6. Your computer is now CPU mining. It's going to use about 100% of the CPU on your computer, so it's best to run the wallet on a computer that is different from your mining rig.

7. Make note of the IP address of the computer your wallet is running on. From the Command Prompt: ipconfig

Wireless LAN adapter Wireless Network Connection 2:

   Connection-specific DNS Suffix  . : your.internet.provider
   IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.3
   Subnet Mask . . . . . . . . . . . : 255.255.255.0
   Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.1.1


IP Address of the computer is 192.168.1.3

8. On your mining rig, point to 192.168.1.3:14022, username abc, password zzz

You are now solo mining! Depending on your mining program, you aren't going to see any activity until you find a block. But it is working. I have my wallet running on my Windows box, and my miner running on a Linux box. I pointed my linux miner to this and it worked.

There may be some other set of instructions out there that are better than this, but part of the fun for me was trying to figure out how to do it on my own from the bits and pieces I found on the internet.

Other Algos... In the digibyte.conf file, you should be able to change the algo= line to one of the other algorithms and mine, but I haven't tested that (yet).

This is great! Thank you for sharing this!

Happy New Year everyone! 2015 is going to be a great year for DigiByte!

Happy new year Jared & team,  thank you for last year

[voephilis]

Happy New Year everyone! 2015 is going to be a great year for DigiByte!

2015 will show how much the investment was really worth

[bogglor]

Why does the block explorer say the reward is 2410, but is paying out 2434 ?

Please check into this. Is the block reward reduction not working, or are the wrong values being reported to the block explorer, or... ?

This is still happening.

Happy New Year to Jared, development team and all the valuable members of the community. You are all awesome!

Happy New Year everyone! 2015 is going to be a great year for DigiByte!

The DGB wallet at Bittrex is showing as disabled. Anyone else experiencing this?

YC

[cryptmebro]

A lot of weird price manipulation at Bittrex. Someone keeps moving their buy orders from 11 to 13 and then taking them off. Not sure if they are attempting to trigger something or not. Is Cryptsy still having deposit issues?

YC

Welcome to crypto-currency.

Happy new year people, a happy new DGB year!

Welcome to crypto-currency.

some people always try to manipulate market. That s quite normal. If volume is low this will happen often.

Can someone tweet Bittrex to fix the DGB wallet?

Seems like it is working now, I have deposited a few tests and it delayed 10 mins more than usual, but arrived safely in the end.

[Sarahiko]

Its a bit slow this time sending coin to bittrex takes me about 15 minutes same with the other coins.

[halinyo]

Guys and gals, finally I have received a huge payment that I was expecting. I will be plugging those BTCs into bittrex and cryptsy to buy more DGB.
I let everyone know here that If I feel in my good mood, I might (very slowly) buy all the DGB from the sell walls up to 25 SAT.

Hint: I might do this when we are much closer to the anniversary of DGB.
Disclaimer: I might not buy anything, at all.

PS: This is no pump, no dump. I expect this to help DGB a very slow, but healthy grow in terms of market price.

Working for me also, just a little delay.

Lol after this the sell walls are filled with more Digibytes. 
You got enough ?

why should he do this? it doesnt make sense to announce you are buying up to 25 sat...^^ don`t want to make profit?

[CryptoLTD]

Because he thinks 12 year olds are trading against him.
