I've been trying to install the CLI on a LInux Mint 18 OS, on a homebuild machine.

It shows it downloading, installing and I've done all the command line instructions for the Terminal as well, but I can't seem to get "bipcoincd" to work, or even show up as anything other than an exe file.

Am I doing it wrong?

Or does bipcoin just not work on Linux Mint?

The linux binaries are 64-bit binaries. Are you by chance running 32-bit OS? Do you get an error message when you execute it? As mentioned before, if any of the files end with ".exe" you have the wrong download.

well, this is the link I downloaded

https://bipcoin.org/DROPS/0001/bipcoin.linux.x64.v0-0-0-1.tar.gz

Yup. Was just about to paste that. And I check it. It's correct. The Linux CLI version of BipCoin.

thank you!

It should looks something like this in the terminal:

Code:

cd DOWNLOADFOLDER

tar xvzf bipcoin.linux.x64.v0-0-0-1.tar.gz

cd bipcoin

./bipcoind

Then in another terminal window start simplewallet:

Code:

cd BIPCOINFOLDER

./simplewallet

Would it cause any problems, either for the network or the miners if I solo mine from 2 different computers, on different ISPs but using the same wallet?

You don't really need to have simplewallet open when you mine. Your blocks are stored in the blockchain and will update next time you open the wallet. On your second computer, just run bipcoind like this:

bipcoind --start-mining YOURADDRESSHERE --mining-threads 4

Make sure you set your address and your preferred number of threads. I'm pretty sure you could run it like this on 100 different computers without causing any problems.

If mining on two copmuters to one wallet works, let us know. And also if it doesn't. FYI, I'm pretty sure you'll need these files from computer A also copied to your BipCoin folder on Computer B:

(wallet name).wallet
(wallet name).address

I have that and I can check one wallet's balance from another computer.

It definitely works. You don't need the files in both places. The transaction is stored on all nodes in the blockchain. Just specify the address with the --start-mining option when starting bipcoind.

Sounds like you downloaded the Windows version. The linux version is just bipcoind, there should be no .exe extension on the filename.

Whatever floats your goat. But I use the wallet too, because your way involves copying and pasting the address. Although I know have a two-key combo preset to paste my public wallet address.

I wouldn't try it. But you can easily make a new wallet on the second computer. That's what I'm doing. And it is on two different ISPs (I have two connections from different companies in case one goes down, since I do a nightly radio show and my connectivity is mission critical.)

Someone's selling BipCoin on Open Bazaar already:

https://duosear.ch/@revlisnoillub/listing/926a7d14158c74af6e41f0ae353921c74be086a4

Good merchant too. I bought four 1/4 ounce Sons of Liberty Mint silver pieces from 'em. Shipped promptly, was as promised.

I like their valuation. BTC price there is just under a dollar a bip.

Well, hell! At that rate, I've made just short of 80 bucks letting this little laptop plug along the last few days!! Cheesy

Gonna just let her keep plugging for the weekend.

woot!

:::EDIT::: and yeah, I know it ain't really valued at a dollar a bip. But it really kinda is. Especially if anyone bought any.
