Here are two methods to solo mine

Method 1

Launchbikercoind and let it sync
Launch simplewallet and select G to generate a new wallet
Type start_mining at the simplewallet console  "By default the miner will mine using only one core.  To mine with more CPU cores type the number of cores after start_ mining"
Example:  start_mining 4
You are now mining with 4 CPU cores
To stop mining type stop_mining in the simplewallet console
To see your balance type balance in the simplewallet console


Method 2

Launch bikercoind and let it sync
Type start_mining your-address number of cores in the bikercoind console
Example: start_mining bicksrxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxx 4  
You are now mining with 4 CPU cores to the address you specified
Using this method you can use any address you want including the address generated with the GUI wallet
There is no need to have the wallet open to mine
To stop mining type stop_mining in the bikercoind console


Useful commands are:

Typing show_hr will show your hashrate when typed in the bikercoind console
Typing help in either the bikercoind or simplewallet console will give you a list of the commands available


Other information:

The blockchain is stored in the same location as other coins.  For Windows that will be "C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\bikercoin"
The GUI wallet will store the wallet file in the same directory as the blockchain by default.
If you create a wallet with simplewallet that wallet will be stored in the directory where simplewallet is located
You can open any wallet file with the GUI wallet by going to File - Open Wallet and browsing to the wallet file location

Solomining with cpu works well, is it possible to do the same but with GPU? how?

EDIT: Forget my question, just that that GPU mining need pool.

hey, i am just getting "DEBUG [several ip's :and port and there is written an OUT] msg 0or 1 or 2:1002

am i mining right or is something wrong?

you look for what there

bikercoin.org    not open

i used my old pc , it nice mining

How easy is it mining with CPU in this coin type

Is it possible to mine from qt wallet? I tired with conf files as always, but my ccminer wont connect.
I managed to run cpu-mining with console daemon tho

im interested to mine this do you have any newbie guide for us dev i think there's a positive outcome for the future of this coin, good luck dev team.

Any pool? Seems a great project.

It's not a new algo it's cryptonote algo like Monero, Bytecoin, DigitalNote, and several other coins.  You can find more information here:   https://cryptonote.org

You can mine with a GPU to a pool but it doesn't look like anyone's set one up.  You can set one up yourself using this open source software if you're ambitious enough http://cryptonotemining.org/

Other than that you can solomine from the daemon which is what people are currently doing using the CLI console/miner download from the website http://bikercoin.org/  there is a GUI wallet download as well but you can's use that to solo mine with an external miner like you can with bitcoin based coins.  The wallet might look like a normal QT wallet but you can't use it to solo mine and you don't create a .conf file.

I have no involvement with this coin other than mining it myself.  I just wanted to explain how it's different to prevent you from wasting your time trying to figure out why it isn't working like other coins. 

I think yes, you can use gpu mining.

wow new algo
can i use GPU for mining it ?

You're mining incorrectly.  You have to solo mine from the daemon.  This is a cryptonote coin.  You can't solo mine the same way you do with a bitcoin based coin.  External miners only work on pools.
