How to mine this coin now? Still possible to wallet solo?
Thanks to some helpful Jim's I've been mining solo from the CLI Wallet and Daemon
1. Run the Jimcoind file
2. Once you have sync'ed (might take a little while, the box with the daemon will tell you though) then run the simplewallet file
3. Open your wallet (or make a new one using the instructions) from the simplewallet cmd box.
4. Type start_mining NUMBER OF THREADS where NUMBER OF THREADS is the number of CPU cores you want to dedicate to the mining
- For example, if you have a quad core without hyper threading, you might want to use 2 cores to mine Jim, so in the Simplewallet box you type
start_mining 2I've been mining with a ryzen 1700 using 6 threads and have found about 20,000 Jim Coins in about 12 hours.
Whenever you find a block, you get ~970 coins, and you will see the balance increase if you type
balance in the simple wallet box.
If you want to check if the mining is running, check your task manager in windows to see if your CPU usage has increased
To stop mining, type stop_mining in the simple wallet box, then exit both wallet and daemon by typing exit in both boxes.
Good Luck Fellow Jim!!
Thanks, but i think i got an error after cmd start_mining:
Failed to invoke rpc method: HTTP status:2
how to make it works? Thnks
Maybe you have opened "
Jimcoin GUI Wallet" or "
simplewallet" before launch "
jimcoind".
I've been mining for a couple of days only launching "jimcoind", without needing of run another Jimcoin proces, that easy.
Close all, open cmd and run "
jimcoind", wait for the green notice that says "
INFO [xx.xxx.xx.xxx:xxxxx INC] SYNCHRONIZED OK"
Now type
start_mining YourJimcoinWalletAddress -x (x for number of threads. With my i5 with 6Mb of cache, I use -3)
You are mining now. You can see your hasrate typing
show_hrThanks for this info, i don't know if i mistaken sth but after simple wallet and jimd and mining command i still got the failed message:
Failed to invoke rpc method: HTTP status:2
1st, please download Jimcoin command line Wallet, named "JimCoinCLI.zip", and unzip it;
2nd, please enter the dir "JimCoinCLI" in your command line terminal, run jimcoind.exe from your windows command line. (ie. open cmd.exe and then switch to JimCoinCLI directory, and then run jimcoind.exe)
3rd, after running jimcoind.exe, it will print many info, ignore those info. just type start_mining Your_Jimcoin_Wallet_Address nn, (nn for number of threads)
4, if you want, please type "help" any time you like.
