RaspyCoin (RASPY) - A low-difficulty coin for the Raspberry Pi

[dobbstowncr]

FLASH... BOOT... MINE!

A low-difficulty cryptocurrency for the Raspberry Pi and other ARM SBC’s.

RaspyCoin is a simple Scrypt-based crypto exclusively for the Raspberry Pi and ASUS Tinkberboad.
Because of its low difficulty it can be mined from within the wallet console without the need of additional mining hardware.  
It is definitely for the hobby miner, and should not be considered as any type of potentially real currency or investment.

Download a Raspbian image with RaspyCoin preinstalled, flash it to a micro-sd card, boot your Pi and you will be mining in minutes!

Dear RaspyCoin Team,,

Yes, the Raspycoin is seams very easy to mining. But install the wallet is very difficult for me.

Hope you have the completed wallet soft to solve this problem.

Thanks.

What stops someone from just throwing an ASIC at this???

What stops someone from just throwing an ASIC at this???

In theory, nothing.  But I'm not going to post the source or help make it easy for anyone to do so.  Of course, there are plenty of smart people who could figure it out, but what's the point?
It's a worthless niche coin, aimed at the Raspberry Pi hobbyists.  I'd prefer that miners all stick to a level playing ground, but frankly that's beyond my control now.
And I suppose actually having people who *want* to mine it is not exactly a problem.

Esta usando Raspbian o Linario en un Raspberry Pi o Tinkerboard?  El billetera unicamente sirve con las computadoras como ellas.

Any idea if this is going to be listed on exchanges?, it has a lot of potential, as sbc mining isn't that small market nor a bad one. RPI3 mines flawlessly

[dobbstowncr]

I've been mining and testing Raspy for about three months now, and in the process have accumulated around one billion Raspycoin.

In order encourage a bit of mining, I'm going to give away my billion Raspycoin in one million coin increments to the first one thousand people who mine one Raspy and send it me.

So here's the fine print...

Turn 1 Raspy into 1,000,000!

The First Virtual Bank of Raspy is giving away ONE BILLION Raspy's in ONE MILLION Raspy increments to  the first  thousand people who deposit one Raspy.

So how do you get your MILLION Raspy's?


*   Obtain one Raspy (preferably by mining it)

*    Request your ONE MILLION Raspy’s by sending your Raspycoin wallet’s receiving
   address to the First Virtual Bank of Raspy at: raspy.coin@gmail.com

*    The First Virtual Bank of Raspy will reply by sending you a receiving address

*    Send one Raspy to the receiving address sent by the First Virtual Bank of Raspy

*    Upon receiving your Raspy, the First Virtual Bank of Raspy will send ONE    
   MILLION Raspy’s to the receiving address you provided


This offer is limited to the first one thousand requests, so act today!
One request per person, please.  Multiple requests will not be honored.

Very cool.  Would love to know more about how your solar setup works. The really ugly thing about crypto-mining is how much power it uses.
I have a few ASIC's and the amount of power they can use is breathtaking.  One more reason I became interested in mining on the Pi.

[dobbstowncr]

Sent out the first million Raspy to some lucky miner who sent me one Raspy following the instructions above.

I still have 999,000,000 to give away.

The current difficulty is 0.00040188, so this shouldn't take long...

[sonniy555]

 I would love to do everything according to the instructions, but I didn't understand how to do anything, my translator is terrible. I'll just fine-tune the cooling on my RASPI and put it on production)

I'm hoping to put together a Raspbian image with the RaspyCoin software pre-installed.  All you would have to to then is flash a sd card and put it in your pi.
Hopefully i'll have something by the end of the week.

RaspyCoin .img now available for download at archive.org

https://archive.org/details/RaspyCoin

The RaspyCoin wallet and necessary dependencies are pre-installed on copy of Raspbian Stretch 11-13-2018.

Simply burn the .img to a micro sd card like you would with any Raspberry image, put it in your Pi and boot.

The image will resize itself to the size of your card automatically.

Follow the simple instructions on the desktop, and you'll be mining within minutes.

Hmm, I just downloaded it directly via Firefox on an Ubuntu 16.04 box to test the link.  Have you tried using the torrent link?  I find that the torrents are usually more reliable.

The Raspycoin image is now on Google drive.  Use the direct download link below to download it.
