Even if they could, doesn't mean anyone should have to compile a wallet to mine on a system that is not their native choice.
Cryptocurrencies will only gain widespread acceptance and prosper when they are available to the widest audience possible. This does not mean making a coin only mineable on the smallest minority of computer users (linux).
Not "savvy" enough to set up a most basic linux instance, dear lord.
So you want everyone to go and buy/download virtualization software so they can install linux, just so they can mine this coin?
Hi all, I recently went through the process of building bitcoind on windows.
I found the official build-msw.txt to be a bit lacking, so I thought that documenting the steps here on the forums could save some time to people wanting to compile their own windows binary.
Please note this is mostly for testing purposes. Always use official executables on production environments.
The following instructions are intended for use with the latest 0.9.1. See additional notes if compiling an older 0.8.6 version.
1. Prepare your build system.I strongly suggest setting up a clean windows virtual machine via Virtualbox or similar.
1.1 Install msys shell:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Installer/mingw-get-setup.exe/downloadFrom MinGW installation manager -> All packages -> MSYS
mark the following for installation:
msys-base-bin
msys-autoconf-bin
msys-automake-bin
msys-libtool-binthen click on Installation -> Apply changes
Make sure no mingw packages are checked for installation or present from a previous install. Only the above msys packages should be installed. Also make sure that msys-gcc and msys-w32api packages are not installed.
1.2 Install a toolchain from MinGW-builds project:
Download and unpack i686-4.8.2-release-posix-dwarf-rt_v3-rev3.7z to C:\
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%20targetting%20Win32/Personal%20Builds/mingw-builds/4.8.2/threads-posix/dwarf/i686-4.8.2-release-posix-dwarf-rt_v3-rev3.7z/download1.3. Ensure that mingw-builds bin folder is set in your PATH environment variable. On Windows 7 your path should look something like:
C:\mingw32\bin;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\
1.4 Additional checks:
C:\MinGW\bin should contain nothing but mingw-get.exe.
Your gcc -v output should be:
$ gcc -v
Using built-in specs.

Thread model: posix
gcc version 4.8.2 (i686-posix-dwarf-rev3, Built by MinGW-W64 project)
I'll save them in c:\deps folder.
2.1 OpenSSL:
http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.0.1g.tar.gzFrom a MinGw shell (C:\MinGW\msys\1.0\msys.bat), unpack the source archive with tar (this will avoid symlink issues) then configure and make:
cd /c/deps/
tar xvfz openssl-1.0.1g.tar.gz
cd openssl-1.0.1g
Configure no-shared no-dso mingw
make
2.2 Berkeley DB:
http://download.oracle.com/berkeley-db/db-4.8.30.NC.tar.gzWe'll use version 4.8 to preserve binary wallet compatibility.
From a MinGW shell unpack the source archive, configure and make:
cd /c/deps/
tar xvfz db-4.8.30.NC.tar.gz
cd db-4.8.30.NC/build_unix
../dist/configure --enable-mingw --enable-cxx --disable-shared --disable-replication
make
2.3 Boost:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.55.0/Download either the zip or the 7z archive, unpack boost inside your C:\deps folder, then bootstrap and compile from a Windows command prompt:
cd C:\deps\boost_1_55_0\
bootstrap.bat mingw
b2 --build-type=complete --with-chrono --with-filesystem --with-program_options --with-system --with-thread toolset=gcc variant=release link=static threading=multi runtime-link=static stage
This will compile the required boost libraries and put them into the stage folder (C:\deps\boost_1_55_0\stage).
Note: make sure you don't use tarballs, as unix EOL markers can break batch files.
2.4 Miniupnpc:
http://miniupnp.free.fr/files/download.php?file=miniupnpc-1.9.tar.gzUnpack Miniupnpc to C:\deps, rename containing folder from "miniupnpc-1.9" to "miniupnpc" then from a Windows command prompt:
cd C:\deps\miniupnpc
mingw32-make -f Makefile.mingw init upnpc-static
2.5 protoc and libprotobuf:
Download and unpack
http://protobuf.googlecode.com/files/protobuf-2.5.0.zipThen from msys shell
cd /c/deps/protobuf-2.5.0
configure --disable-shared
make
2.6 qrencode:
Download and unpack
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/libpng/libpng-1.6.10.tar.gz?download inside your deps folder then configure and make:
cd /c/deps/libpng-1.6.10
configure --disable-shared
make
Download and unpack
http://fukuchi.org/works/qrencode/qrencode-3.4.3.tar.gz inside your deps folder then configure and make:
cd /c/deps/qrencode-3.4.3
LIBS="../libpng-1.6.10/.libs/libpng16.a ../../mingw32/i686-w64-mingw32/lib/libz.a" \
png_CFLAGS="-I../libpng-1.6.10" \
png_LIBS="-L../libpng-1.6.10/.libs" \
configure --enable-static --disable-shared --without-tools
make
2.7 Qt 5 libraries:
Qt must be configured with ssl and zlib support.
Download and unpack Qt base and tools sources:
http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/5.2/5.2.1/submodules/qtbase-opensource-src-5.2.1.7zhttp://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/5.2/5.2.1/submodules/qttools-opensource-src-5.2.1.7zThen from a windows command prompt (note that the following supposes qtbase is unpacked into C:\Qt\5.2.1 and qttools are unpacked into C:\Qt\qttools-opensource-src-5.2.1):
set INCLUDE=C:\deps\libpng-1.6.10;C:\deps\openssl-1.0.1g\include
set LIB=C:\deps\libpng-1.6.10\.libs;C:\deps\openssl-1.0.1g
cd C:\Qt\5.2.1
configure.bat -release -opensource -confirm-license -static -make libs -no-sql-sqlite -no-opengl -system-zlib -qt-pcre -no-icu -no-gif -system-libpng -no-libjpeg -no-freetype -no-angle -no-vcproj -openssl-linked -no-dbus -no-audio-backend -no-wmf-backend -no-qml-debug
mingw32-make
set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Qt\5.2.1\bin
cd C:\Qt\qttools-opensource-src-5.2.1
qmake qttools.pro
mingw32-make
Note: consider using -j switch with mingw32-make to speed up compilation process. On a quad core -j4 or -j5 should give the best results.
3. Download and unpack Bitcoin 0.9.1 from git https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/archive/v0.9.1.zipPatch makefile to avoid being asked for permission during compile process (replace relevant rm with rm -f)
