we are the most raised in price coin on bittrex now Nice! Great work so far KingsCrown. I would like to know one more thing....can you provide a guide for solo mining Exclusive Coin? Also is there any P2Pool for Exclusive coin? These two would greatly help people. I tried to use your ExclusiveCoin.conf and do solo mining and it did not work for some reason. I used bfgminer for that. Thank you.
OK - solo mining guide as promised.---------------------------------------------------------------------------Note:1. This is the first time I've solo mined but it's working.
2. I think I'm getting a bit more than from a pool but I've had good results from pools as well, which is an easier option.
3. Pools are better when the difficulty is high.
4. I'm not an expert!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------My rig:4 x AMD R9 270X which I'm getting just over 2.5 Mh/s from each card, giving me over 10 Mh/s in total, running on Windows 7.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------Steps:1. Download the latest mining software - I use sgminer 5:
https://www.nicehash.com/software/#sgminer.
2. Download the ExclusiveCoin wallet (see front page -
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-exclusive-coin-cryptsybittrex-cat-bot-loads-of-news-771755).
3. Run wallet and allow to sync blockchain.
4. Close wallet.
5. Create a text file with the following contents.
server=1
listen=1
daemon=1
rpcuser=
userrpcpassword=
passrpcallowip=localhost
rpcport=3333
Set user and pass to something of your choosing.
6. Rename this text file to ExclusiveCoin.conf and put in your ExclusiveCoin data folder where your wallet.dat file is. (I have my data folder in a different place than the default and use the -datadir flag but it should work in the default folder).
7. Create a shortcut to the ExclusiveCoin-qt.exe and add the flag -server so it becomes (Path_To_Wallet_Exe)\ExclusiveCoin-qt.exe -server. (Probably don't need the -server as it's duplicated in the conf file).
8. Create a batch file to run the miner using the same user and password you put in the conf file. This is my batch file:
del *.bin
color 02
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
(Path_To_Miner)\sgminer.exe -o 127.0.0.1:3333 -u
user -p
pass -k x11mod --intensity 17 --worksize 256 --thread-concurrency 16000 --gpu-threads 2
del *.bin
9. Run the wallet and let it sync.
10. Run the miner. (You won't get much information until you get a block and it takes a little while to get going).
11. Keep wallet open (the miner is talking to it!).
12. You can look in the log file to see that things are actually happening.
Goto Help->DebugWindow->Debug log file->Open.
Scroll to bottom.
When someone else has made a block (which is most of the time) you will see messages such as received block [hash], ProcessBlock: ACCEPTED etc.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------That's it, let me know if it works, pm me if you need help. If anyone else can point out things I could do better, feel free
Seems like quite a few people are now doing solo mining? See post above on 7th October which corresponds to a block around #32000 on the graph here:
A steady rise in extractions from Unknown. Also a gradual rise in difficulty. All good
