Watch out here when you downloading something from here !

Its possible a Fake Miner Thread here!

More than likely so. The source code is unchanged from the original so it's just a cover for a "new" Windows release full of nasty surprises.

Watch out here when you downloading something from here !

Its possible a Fake Miner Thread here!

According from the Website https://qu.ai/ the Original Github is https://github.com/dominant-strategies/.

The Miner download Link from this thread is : github.com/quai-strategies
That Github Account was just created 7 Hours ago.

When you look on the Original Github there is already the real cpu miner for : https://github.com/dominant-strategies/quai-cpu-miner

It looks like that Github from in here on the Thread is a Fake one and maybe Malware :

Hi all, i new here, found an interesting project, but still in the testnet, maybe you will be interested too.
And we discuss the future output of the project.

Now lets see how to start mining testnet new coin - QUAI

About QUAI from site:
Quai Network is the only decentralized cryptocurrency with the capacity to scale to all global commerce.
Quai is a merge-mined network of blockchains. This network is able to coordinate an infinite number of blockchains (execution shards) by using the Proof-of-Entropy-Minima (PoEM) consensus mechanism, which eliminates all consensus-based contention. The ability for PoEM to coordinate a perpetually growing set of blockchains allows the network to process more than 50,000 transactions per second. The architecture is a composable multithreaded execution environment with blocks being produced approximately every 1.1 seconds.

Quai addresses issues with scalability while maintaining decentralization to create an un-censorable network which can be ubiquitously used as money.

Before run miner
1) Run quai node
To run an instance of go-quai, you'll need to install these programs first:
Git - A DevOps tool used for source code management
Golang - A simple, statically typed language for building secure and scalable systems.

Now that you've installed the base dependencies, we can go ahead and clone the go-quai repo. We recommend making a directory to house all of your Quai related repositories for easy access.

Code:
cd path/to/directory
mkdir quai

Now that we've made our parent directory, we can navigate to it and download the repository.

Code:
cd quai
git clone https://github.com/dominant-strategies/go-quai
cd go-quai

This command checks out the main branch to your local.

Build the Source
To start the node, we first need to build the source. Building go-quai requires both go and a C-compiler. You can easily install a C-compiler using your favorite package manager.
After installing the dependencies, you can build via Makefile by running:
Code:
make go-quai

Full nodes validate all of the chains within Quai Network. To spin up a full node run:
Code:
make run-all

Run miner
Windows cpu miner: https://github.com/quai-strategies/quai-cpu-miner/releases/tag/0.9.0
Linux source miner: https://github.com/quai-strategies

Build for linux miner
Similar to the node, we'll need to build the source to run the miner. You'll again need a C-compiler which can be installed with your favorite package manager.
To build the source via Makefile, run:
Code:
make quai-cpu-miner

Run linux miner
Now that we've built the source, we can prepare to run the miner.
Prior to running the miner, you must connect to a fully synced node, either local or remote. Once you've connected to a synced node, you can spin up an instance of the miner.
Miners always mine a subset of three chains within Quai Network. When starting the miner, you'll have to specify the subset of chains you want to mine. By default, every miner secures Prime. Miners must then choose a region chain and a corresponding zone chain to mine. Start the miner with the following commands:
Code:
# run in terminal
make run-mine region=R zone=Z

# run in background, save log output
make run-mine-background region=R zone=Z

# R and Z can range from 0 to 2
