Why Linux?
Because
1) Don't need to pay for a Microsoft license.
2) System requirements Linux is much lower, and as a consequence you don't need to overpay for HDD/RAM

VPS on Linux can be rented for $ 10-12 per year here http://lowendbox.com/
Or get a year free from Google, and enjoy the whole year instead of 5 months with Windows


Consider the Google Cloud

You have reached the moment of choosing the configuration in Google, choose ubuntu 16.04 LTS, 10GB hard drive, 1.7GB RAM, and that will about $ 15 per month, or $ 180 per year, from the free 300$.  

Create

Push on SSH, in the opened window we enter

Code:
sudo apt-get update

Code:
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop

Code:
sudo apt-get update

Code:
sudo apt-get install xfce4

Code:
sudo apt-get update

Code:
sudo apt-get install xrdp

Code:
echo xfce4-session >~/.xsession
Code:
sudo nano /etc/xrdp/startwm.sh

A text editor opens in which you need to delete everything, and paste
Quote
#!/bin/sh
if [ -r /etc/default/locale ]; then
  . /etc/default/locale
  export LANG LANGUAGE
fi
startxfce4
echo xfce4-session >~/.xsession

After leaving the space after the text, press ctr-x, confirm by pressing Y, and press Enter

We add the user with the command

Code:
sudo adduser username

We write the password, and skip everything else

Code:
sudo adduser username sudo


Code:
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386

Code:
wget -nc https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/Release.key

Code:
sudo apt-key add Release.key
Code:
sudo apt-add-repository https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/ubuntu/

Code:
sudo apt-get update

Code:
sudo apt-get install --install-recommends winehq-stable

Done! Then you can work with a convenient interface.

Press Win+R In the opened window, enter "mstsc"

a client opens in which you need to enter IP from our server


here enter the name and password from the user you created


Done!

We see below the browser icon, go to the site with a wallet and download the wallet for windows , find it in the download folder and install.

Where is wallet.dat?

Enable the display of hidden folders, icon of Home - view - show hidden

Home/username/.wine/drice_c/users/Application Data/walletname/wallet.dat

You can download or upload wallet.dat through the browser and google drive.
Whoever mines the block which ends up containing your transaction will get its fee.

How you can mine with POS?
I think only POW that could mine with bitcoin and altcoin.
Could you explain how PoS work? and how you can mine with this method?
What coin you can mine with this method?

Solving blocks can't be solved without my rigs.

He's probably confused since you posted this in the mining forum.  This isn't the staking forum. Furthermore, why go to all of this work when you can just install the coin's linux wallet?

Why? It's just ctr+c ctr+v work, and after all you will receive vps with GUI and with windows programs compatibility. For people, who never work with linux. Why? It's cheaper!
