Try using screen. It will keep your processes running even if your putty connection dies.

How much Thz do you have? Cause having 1-2thz  should be enough  a bit.

Everyone is mining alt coins since they are too broke to afford real mining gear as the prices keep going up.

Screen is not command it's a tool.

You're mining bitcoin with a VPS? Meaning you're CPU mining?

Stop.

CPUs are of no use on the bitcoin network. gPU's blew them out if the water, and their performance was measurable is megahashes per second. Now we have aside (and we've had them for a while) which operate at giga and terrahashes per second.

In other words you can mine for ever, or at least until he suns runs out of fuel, and probably not get a single reward.

I really don't understand the concept of "I'm going to run an absurdly underpowered miner, justto see how it works". How it works is your computer runs, and and occasionally btc appear in your wallet. There's no interaction, nothing for you to do. And if you're using CPUs or gPU's to do so with bitcoin, you won't ever actually see any coins hit your wallet.

Nopes... though he is interested in BTC mining, at this moment he is trying Alt Coin minig and trade that against BTC, which is quite possible IMO

And pls tell me more about using screen.coomand and everything. Pls tell me which coins should i mine. Which are more profitable. I dont see future in dogecoin.

Well about mining with cpu i got it free for 1 month. And about speed i got about 1-2 kh/s so i am not mining bitcoin. I am current mining bunnycoin. Getting around 11k bun per day and running it for around 4-5 hours. But i want to make full use of it. That why please someone help. I have heard that *nix system can run process background even after you close the putty session.

VPS mining is not recommanded since if you use too much resources for long periods of time, the provider can and will kick you out of the VPS. Mining is more for GPU and ASICs if you want profit. You can mine those CPU-only coins but you won't make much profit.

yeah, mining a cryptocurrency is a nice way to get kicked right off of that vps. 

get a dedicated server for that..  datasoft.ws has some for 1 cent @ https://datasoft.ws/ds_plusdedicated.php ...  I'm on one right now, w/ Windows 2003 server (they are "out of stock" of Ubuntu (lol), and make you pay for IPMI to install your own OS)

This has been unprofitable for some time now.

LTC mining was profitable a few months ago when using cloud computing, but difficulty increases and price decreases have caused it to become unprofitable.

My understanding is that the most one instance can mine is 2-3 MH/s.

Per http://www.bitcoinx.com/profit/ 200 GH/s will mine .0086 BTC per 24 hour period.

Based on the above numbers you would need to have ~66 thousand instances for 24 hours to earn .0086 BTC which comes out to $5

You are wrong. AFAIK, most instance can't get pass 500kh/s. LTC was never profitable since hosting providers will shut your VPS down after using 50% of the CPU for too long.

VPS mining is using Cloud computing instances (like amazon EC2) to CPU/GPU mine. Today it is not profitable.

[Justin00]

no offence OP but what made you decide to try VPS mining ?
I hope you were / can use the VPS for something else.
perhaps host a BTC related website or something like that, pretty sure you would make more money that way.

but yeah curious why you choe VPS mining??

It should never be profitable, the cost per hour is too high to even profit even half of it.

[skottiejay]

Yeah I was running 2 instances on digital ocean that were barely getting 10kh/s combined and I figured it would be better to kill them off. I don't know what alt coins would even be profitable doing this.

People came up with the idea of VPS mining long time ago. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=12458.0
