I really don't have a clue why i'm mining this... i was mining suncoin but there the pools are also unstable, i was moving from hobbitcoin to saturncoin then sun now this one, really bad day, always had to change coins.
These low diff coins are a great way to learn how to solo mine and learn how it works. Nothing beats solving blocks solo!
I gave it a try yesterday, but i fucking don't have a clue how i need to do it. So i have a lunix bux with Ubinus or something like that on it. THere I run my cgminer script.
I believe for solo mining you need to take the source from the linux box and compile it and this create a wallet? I think, but what next how do you know that what you're mining is going to your wallet?
You need the coin wallet and coin.conf file to solo mine. Open the wallet let it sync and close the wallet. Make a coin.conf file with the coin name e.g for this coin it's "equestrianbit.conf" add the rpc info and nodes, then place it in the coins folder in the %APPDATA% directory where the wallet.dat file is located.
Create a shortcut to the wallet.exe and in the properties add a "-server" argument e.g: "C:\Wallets\equestrianbit-1.0.1\equestrianbit-qt.exe" -server. Start the wallet using the shortcut you just created and then start cgminer like you would to mine with a pool, but instead of the stratum server, set the output to your localhost and rpc login info like:
cgminer --scrypt -o
http://127.0.0.1:4011 -u PinkiePie -p ChimiCherryChanga
After it starts check the debug file to make sure you are receiving blocks:

Once you find a block you will get a transaction notification and a pick-axe will show up in the wallet. The newly minted coins will show as 'immature' in the wallet until after 120 confirmations, they can be spent.
