Hi all. I am a new user of this forum because I think it is the best forum about the cryptocurrency.I am very happy that I can be here.
Due to the numerous inquiries by topic : [ANN][VTC] Vertcoin How to mine from the wallet?I decided to write a short and simple instructions.
How to mine from the wallet(QT client).(CPU mine)
1. Open Wallet.
2. Choose Help.
3. Select Debug window.
4. Select Console.
5. Type “setgenerate true -1” to use all processing cores.
Note : If you want to use 2 / 4/ 6 cores then use “setgenerate true 4” command to use 4 cores (change the number if u need to)
If you want end mining type "setgenerate true 0".
Next step:Now you have to check if your client is mining or not, just type “getmininginfo” command in that same window,
you should start to see your hashespersec reported as following.
{
"blocks" : 7750,
"currentblocksize" : 1000,
"currentblocktx" : 0,
"difficulty" : 0.00955156,
"errors" : "",
"generate" : true,
"genproclimit" : -1,
"hashespersec" : 573,
"networkhashps" : 7380675,
"pooledtx" : 0,
"testnet" : false
}
Now you should start to see your hashespersec reported, if hashespersec is not zero, you’re doing it right.
You can also check some other stats with following commands.
getdifficulty
getprimespersec
getinfo
I hope someone does it profit.
