Several days ago I went to coin.mx and paid for $500 worth of Bitcoin on my credit card. LUCKILY I immediately sent it to my Bleutrade account because within a few hours they were on the news because the owners were arrested and the site was shut down. Had I left my Bitcoin on that exchange I would have lost it all.
I then immediately purchased a lot of Zoom and sent it to a wallet I keep offline. It is RISKY to buy Bitcoin and therefore risky to buy Zoom. I don't trust exchanges for any longer than I have to. I would much rather get my Zoom from mining.
Apparently it is easy to get Zoom from mining since it is being dumped on the market. I think that miners who are dumping so much Zoom on the market might find appreciation for their hobby (apparently that is what some want) when they move on to a different crypto. It is extremely ignorant to expect us to appreciate their efforts when they are making no personal investment into Zoom.
It would be awesome if somebody would teach how to mine Zoom so those of us who want to invest in Zoom can and those who want to mine and dump can move on.
Based on your past posts it seems you want information on mining that is simple. The thing is, unless you want to not earn rewards or worse yet fry your computer, you need to do some research. There simply is no super simple way. Google Lyra2RE mining and you will find all the information you need to get started. But you DO have to do a little work. Otherwise, maybe a Proof of Stake coin is better for you. That said if you just want to mine and don't care if you will have enough hashing power for rewards, the simplest and safest way is to open your wallet, go to "help" and then "debug window" and then "console" and type in : setgenerate true -1
Hit enter.
You will then be CPU mining at low intensity.
Thanks, but that advice is in no way is what I am requesting. If I wanted to spend hours researching then I wouldn't need to request instructions. I've already spent hours and gotten nowhere. Anyone else?
This might help, though I have never used it or ever set up any kit to mine Zoom, so hopefully you will get more advice and support from the Zoom team.
It will hopefully be a useful start for you though
http://www.verters.com/mining-vertcoinhttp://www.verters.com/get-cpuminerHi,
currently it is hard for me to understand that someone is asking for a how-to mine here in the special thread. But anyway. I will provide a short sum:
1. Decide for CPU or GPU mining
2. register at one pool of your choice (i.e.
http://zoom.miningpool.cc) and create a worker > my account > woker
for CPU Mining
1. Download the software
https://euros.international/AV7MNWXQVRAF7bQw9O8v/cpuminer-multi-rel1.0.9.7z2. unpack the zip to any folder you want.
3. navigate to he unpacked folder and edit the file "RUN-Lyra.bat" (right click > edit)
4. now edit the following entries and insert your usernames and passwords
cpuminer-multi-mingw64 -a lyra2
-u tpruvot.lyra -p x -o stratum+tcp://pool.verters.com:4444 -b 0.0.0.0:4048 -o stratum+tcp://zoom.miningpool.cc:3878 -u yourpoolusername.workername -p workerpassword5. save the file and run it by doubleclick on it.
6. Well done! You are mining Zoom with your CPU
for GPU Mining
1. Download the software
ATI https://euros.international/AV7MNWXQVRAF7bQw9O8v/sgminer-5-1-0-lyra2re-pallas.zip NVIDIA https://euros.international/AV7MNWXQVRAF7bQw9O8v/ccminer-sp-mod-r53-win.7z2. unpack the zip to any folder you want
3. navigate to he unpacked folder and edit the file "LYRA2RE-START.bat" (right click > edit) >>>> for
ATI4. now edit the following entries and insert your usernames and passwords
sgminer.exe --no-submit-stale --kernel Lyra2RE
-o stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com:3342 -u 14vZ4DHDzhttzKyNAmLzpRq6VLmCGb16vX -p d=0.002 -o stratum+tcp://zoom.miningpool.cc:3878 -u yourpoolusername.workername -p workerpassword -I 19 -w 64 -g 2
the file for NVIDIA should be looking the same and it should be the same to edit it.
You can adjust some parameters in the script but this is more complicated to explain.
cheers
