I've downloaded the android wallet source and have changed the internal info to match BTQ, but I can't get it to compile :-(

[BitQuark]

Well guys, I just talked with a guy about making the BTQ Android wallet and it looks like we might have one by the end of the weekend if everything goes right!!!! :-D It's just gonna cost me 0.6 BTC (~$225 USD)

Shouldn't you be saying it's going to cost us?  I'm up to donate a 0.0005 BTC or two.

Maybe set up a BTQ donation address for wallet development and try to get some support from the community?  All the BTQ donated gets sold on X date and the proceeds go towards the wallet creation?  In some way bitquark pays for bitquark development?

That's a good idea Danny! If you would like to donate BTC to BitQuark development, you can send donations to this BTC address 1BBAM2sDa8sVP65zvWr46wjwh9ivqsu25C

This will help pay for the development of the BTQ Android wallet.

Is that a bitcoin address or bitquark address?

Also, do you accept paypal?

I convert digital currencies I receive straight away.  I'd be willing to contribute part of it but I don't have dependable bitcoin or bitquark.

As soon as this next round ends at http://btcdig.com/ I'll have some BTC to play with.

Awesome! Thanks ZFF!

I used to mine at btcdig but it would take like 30 days to find a block so I switched to http://btcguild.com much much faster...like 5 or more blocks found per-day. I think they are the #1 BTC pool

See, I don't mind waiting for a long round to end at BTCdig because there is no penalty when big miners swoop in at the end like PPLNS pools. For instance, I was mining at TripleMining for a while. It would look like I was building to an estimated payout of >0.1 BTC but when the bullies swooped in at the end to sweep up, my payout would plummet to ~0.03. They're picking pockets. Totally unfair. BTCdig is immune to pool hoppers. I mean totally immune. What you mine is yours to keep. Period, the end. I like that.

oh yeah totally understandable. What kinda hashrate you getting with all the USB miners that you had in your video? I have only 1 USB miner and I overclocked it usually run it at 2.4GHs.

Tonight I've been working on making bitquark.info look more professional. Here's screen shot of what I have so far.

[imihal44]

Can someone tell me how solo mine this with gpu,i have sapphire r9 280x,windows 8.1..?..thx

[FoodForThePoor]

Does anyone know of an easy way to buy bitquarkcoins for $$$

I have a c-cex account but egopay isn't accepting US customers as the moment.

Download any mining program that uses the quark algorithm. I personally use sgminer v5. - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=632503.0
Also make sure you have the most updated bitquark client. - http://www.bitquark.info/wallet.php

Im not sure how windows 8 does folder architecture but i can explain how it works in windows 7.

Install and sync up your bitquark client. After its synced up, close it. Then go into C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\BitQuark.

This is where we will create a file called "bitquark.conf". First we will create a new text document, i usually call it "conf.txt". In this new txt file paste the following and feel free to replace "user" and "pass" in the first two lines with anything you like. You will need to remember those for later.

rpcuser=USER
rpcpassword=PASS
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1

After you have that file created and saved, we will save it again, but this time it will create the bitquark.conf that we need. File -> Save as.. Then under the 'Save as type' dropdown bar, choose All files (*.*). Name this "bitquark.conf" and save. You now have your bitquark.conf file and a txt version of it thats easier to read incase you forget your username or pass.

Alright bitquark is set up and ready to go, now we configure your miner. Extract the sgminer-5.0 zip to your desktop. Open the extracted folder and this is where we will create a .bat file that will control how the mining program knows what you are trying to mine.

Create a new text document again. My batch file looks something like this. You will be replacing the -u and -p with whatever you used in your bitquark.conf file that we created. The "-I 18 -g 1 -w 128" in my file is what works for me because im using a lowly 5850, but you will need to do some research and experimenting to figure out what works for your card.

sgminer --algorithm quarkcoin -o http://127.0.0.1:9108 -u RPCUSER -p RPCPASSWORD -I 18 -g 1 -w 128

Anyway, once you have that copied and edited to match your user and pass we will save it as a batch file. File -> Save as.. Then under the 'Save as type' dropdown bar, choose All files (*.*). Name this "BTQSOLO.bat" and save.

Now we start up the bitquark client and run BTQSOLO.bat. You should be mining. It might be a good idea to download MSI Afterburner to monitor your GPU temp / control fan speed. Its a bad idea to let your GPU run hotter than 70c. Well, the running temp is up for debate but i try not to let mine run hotter than 70c for long periods.

[imihal44]

Thx ,will try that ,everytime i was trying was failed to conect

[CommanderVenus]

Yep i was correct about messing up the batch file, everything in my post is now correct and working for me. Hope it helps.

[imihal44]

i manage to conect it and started mining,but...to many hw errors

[CommanderVenus]

You probably need to experiment with your settings. HW errors usually mean you are running too hot. I would check out the sgminer thread.

I solved two blocks but they both orphaned out.. I think ill need to experiment with the expiry and scantime settings. Just gotta keep that PMA.

For me ditching sgminer 5.0 and going back to an older version did the trick.
Could be 5.0 with 14.7 drivers or something.

[BitQuark]

Look what I have :-D Just testing it out right now and should be available this week for sure!!
