yeah, but it was at the start, now the difficulty is like 2 peta Cheesy

I will be mining altcoins from the start, no one was talking about BTC.

don't bother, because the default qt miner use the cpu, unless you want to mine a cpu coin..

Didn't Satoshi mine like tens of millions worth of BTC using the -gen option?

then, just match your config with cgminer string(desktop shortcut)

config

rpcuser= what you want
rpcpassword=what you want
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport= coin port(search in the official thread)
server=1

save and reload the client of your coin

cgminer string

-o 127.0.0.1:rpcport -u rpcuser -p rpcpassword and your vga config

that's it

Ah thanks, I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to actual mining, makes me curious how (un)effecient is -gen in comparison to cgminer?

dunno i only know about cgminer/bfgminer, and reaper, but this one is not user friendly

I mean the standard (what-have-you)-qt with the -gen option running.

you mean for solo mining?

Yes, pools really don't make sense if you're investing in some crypto in its early days.

I am curious are there any guides on setting up scrypt mining without using pools on rented GPU servers?
