[ANN] SpreadCoin | True Decentralization (No Pools) | Testing New Masternodes

I had tried the latest version and now it just didn't show any error but just closes when any key's been pressed.

Really hard to say why this is happening, I tried latest drivers at it works for me.
It doesn't output any information at all?

No information. I had tried with 14.9 version too, and the same happens.
Couldn't able to figure out whats the real problem.

If you are a miner with little hashpower,I recommend you to give up mining for you'll get nothing for long time.

Hash rate still is not very high for the big picture. Turning away any hash at all is detrimental for success. Miners may not cover electric costs by reward to price of coin but more hash power equils stronger blockchain, every time. Coin price could rise and maybe cover costs and put miners in the black but either way supporting a coin with your personal hash power no matter how small gives personal pride. I understand 90% or more are in this for the profit, but I like to believe others still support concepts and principles among just cash.

A user friendly. guide for Nvida gpu set up would be great imo. I looked for about an hour last night at this thread but tge information is scattered everywhere.

Best wishes.

I'll put a 500 SPR bounty for a good mining guide.

What info are you looking for?

DO you have your config file set up and the the command for the miner is simple:      spreadminer -o localhost:PORT -u YOUR_USER_NAME -p YOUR_PASSWORD -q    You don't need the -q I like using it though.

How many SPR would I solo mine per day by running the miner on a ati sapphire 7950 hd?
Cool project tho.

[IBGigglin]

Ive only got my pc set up no true rig. Ive supported other coins before but only with pools never solo. Im set up now with cudamuner and just replace my gpus code withthe pools info. Im at work now but ill be off in 4 hours. Ill write up a setup guide when I get home. Maybe we can schedule an IRC meeting and get some group assistance to speed things up a bit?

Use mining profit calculator provided by SpreadCoinBot in #Spreadcoin on Freenode.

You will need nvminer to mine this coin with Nvidia cards. As of now that is the only miner supporting this coin.

This wasn't done by me but this is how I finally learned how to solo mine with multiple rigs into one wallet.

I guess it is also possible to mine with sgminer (which is called AMD miner in OP) on Nvidia cards. At least it works on integrated Intel GPU, I was able to get around 40 kh/s from it, didn't tried it on Nvidia cards though.

I think I know the answer to this but I'm going to ask anyway.

Are we limited to only using the provided miners?  Is the software open source?

I'm having difficulty getting the miners to work on non standard farms.  Its a shame that ordinary X11 can't be used...it would stimulate adoption and distribution of the coin.

These miners are open source, links to their sources are in OP. The problems with non standard farms maybe related to the fact that there is a limit by default on how many miners you can connect to one wallet.

Its a shame that ordinary X11 can't be used.

Ordinary X11 would imply pools.

Thanks for your response.

I regularly point 500Mh to 1Ghs of X11 at Darkcoin...I'll take a look at the source and see if I can get it working on any of the rigs.

Six months ago or so Cudaminer was the only software for Nvidia. Im home from work now. Got a few things to do around the house then Ill set up my comp. If I get stuck on anything Ill post complications but I should be able to figure it out sober heh. Once its up Ill make a dummies guide, but this will only be for Windows OS using Nvidia cards.

Have you seen this yet:

Ok guys here is the batch file that I made. It creates a mining batch file for you.
I hope it is noob friendly.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/s71ju7vjwkaj3q9/SpreadcoinMinerConfig.bat?dl=0

Please post suggestions to help improve it.

Make sure to put the .bat file into the same directory as the miner.

Once it finishes it creates spreadcoinminer.bat, and you run this to mine.

If that's not enough then i'll definately make a better guide. I want that 500!

I don't mine so it's not my area of knowledge.  What would be nice is a guide that would let someone like me follow the directions, and be up and mining without much trouble.

Ok then. I'll write a guide. That batch file has steps you need to follow in it and it automatically opens up the spreadcoin.conf file for you but I get what you're saying.

Spreadcoin mining with Nvidia on Windows
1. download latest Windows wallet, version 0.9.15.2, from spreadcoin.net
2. unzip downloaded wallet
3. run application; spreadcoin-qt.exe
4. let wallet sync (can't solo mine unless wallet is sync'd)
6. download Nvidia spreadminer_v0.1r2_with_cudart.zip
7. unzip spreadminer
8. change the example.bat to user selected username and password.

   spreadminer -o http://127.0.0.1:41677 -u anyusername -p anypassword

9. run example.bat to start mining.

optional; if you have multiple Nvidia cards you can use the -d, --device option
to run multiple instances of spreadminer. So a 5 card rig example.bat would read
spreadminer -d 0,1,2,3,4 -o http://127.0.0.1:31359 -u username -p password


** edited to reflect solo mining to latest wallet.

Spreadcoin mining with Nvidia on Windows
1. download Windows wallet from spreadcoin.net
2. unzip downloaded wallet
3. run application; spreadcoin-qt.exe
4. let wallet sync (can't solo mine unless wallet is sync'd)
5. close sync'd wallet
6. create new text doc, spreadcoin.conf, in directory found at C:\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming\SpreadCoin, containing the following;

   rpcuser=username :: change to unique
   rpcpassword=password :: change to unique
   rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
   rpcport=31359 :: can be any port number not in use on computer
   listen=1
   daemon=1
   server=1
   logtimestamps=1

7. restart spreadcoin-qt.exe
8. download Nvidia spreadminer_v0.1r2_with_cudart.zip
9. unzip spreadminer
10. change the example.bat file to match your port number, username, and password found in the spreadcoin.conf file.

   spreadminer -o http://127.0.0.1:31359 -u username -p password

11. run example.bat to start mining.

optional; if you have multiple Nvidia cards you can use the -d, --device option
to run multiple instances of spreadminer. So a 5 card rig example.bat would read
spreadminer -d 0,1,2,3,4 -o http://127.0.0.1:31359 -u username -p password

Excellent!
Amd please.

[NoobKidOnTheBlock]

X11 ASICs and FPGAs will not be usable for SpreadCoin. They will require some non-trivial modifications.

Well when I run my miner it says #include blake.cl and then shuts down??? any ideas why this might be? I have the amd 14.9 catalyst thingy as well

For me this happens when I try to mine on integrated Intel GPU.

Try to run:

Code:

sgminer --ndevs
pause

It will print you all your devices on which you can mine, you will see if there is an AMD card.

Thanks I will have to try that out as soon as I have a quick moment
