Topic: [Updated] Guide To Cloud Mining Primecoin - Also get free XPM! (Read 3085 times)

not anymore

Is this profitable?

If anyone has any suggestions for upcoming guides they want to see feel free to PM me - don't be shy! Also, if you have any questions feel free to ask me - there is no such thing as a question you should already know the answer too in bitcoins - we were all new at sometime. Plus it gives me feedback on what information I should include in my future guides. This weekend be on the lookout for ~3 new guides (and keep in mind each guide is generally posted in 3 locations so that's 9 new threads to be on the lookout - each thread has different advice so if you have the time and really want to become knowledgeable in cloud mining, I recommend reading all of them!

Update: I have been getting some people requesting the reward just for signing up for me when they don't actually spend the $10. Please keep in mind you need to spend the $10 to get the reward.

If anyone is interested in helping me with my Curecoin cloud mining guide - or just in general offering services for Curecoin when it comes out, PM me!

Thanks for all the wonderful code recommendations guys! Remember if you have any recommendations relating to the code, I would highly appreciate them - or guides for how to do it with different clients (SSH Putty ect.)

Guys. Remember to take screenshots when signing up and PM/email them to me, just saying you signed up under me is not enough!

Cloud mining protoshare test completed: 15% profitability on 5x $80/month servers (probably higher now since Bitcoin's price has literally gone up 50% in the last 24 hours while protoshare's price has only gone down ~25%.

Be on the look out for a primecoin test and the new curecoin guide which hopefully will come out soon (if they ever release the coin... I'm very impatient.) Also remember to sign up for a cloud server under my referral link for profitable rewards + a bonus for signing up (increasing your profitability even more!)

Guys, be on the look out for a guide to get free mining w/ Windows Azure free trial - free money for a month and then you can shut it down and take your earnings - no cost to you. Relatively newbie friendly (no entering code into a command console, its like setting up a new miner on Windows 7)

I've been getting some questions about those using putty ssh to log in - with putty it appears if you close the session, it does stop mining - does anyone else have recommendations / info on this.

[12 hours only: reward at 4 Primecoins for signing up! You get 30% off for trying it out w/ $10!]

Remember guys. If you have any questions whether or not you sign up under me I'll always answer them.

[UPDATE]

#1 I have talked to one of the curecoin devs and when the coin is released I plan on working to create a cloud mining guide for it within the first few days. The reward for signing up under me will most likely be split: you will get roughly $2 in curecoin + $2 will also be sent to the red cross, or another popular charity.

*Note I am bitshirehashaway on bitcointalk & bitsharestalk if your wondering*

If you sign up with my digital ocean referral link and spend $10 you will get 2 free XPM for your efforts! Remember to get proof though!

Hello everyone,
Several guides have been put out there for cloud mining, however, I believe that this is ones of the first of its kind for cloud mining primecoin with a pool. I adapted it from my guide from protoshares (http://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=722.0), however, it had to go through some changes before it worked for primecoin - all of these changes were tested on digital ocean and I effectively played around with the code until I got it to work.

Tips Are Appreciated: AR8HaVPnFV6GyCa9msQAnasfRE9an84d5y

Here is how you start. First you need to sign up for digital ocean. Please make sure to use my referral link: https://www.digitalocean.com/?refcode=3a96071d7d5f If you use my referral link to sign up and spend at least $10, I will send you 2 XPM free!

Next you need to create a droplet. I would recommend the 8gb 4 cpu option that costs $80/month but feel free to go higher or lower. Just don't use the $5/month one because I sometimes got errors when trying to run this program there, I don't think it has enough memory for the job, but you can start at the $10/month one! After you have that done, make sure you pick Debian 7.0 x64 as your image. Then hit create.

Soon your username (always root) and password will be emailed with you. Go to your droplet in digital ocean and then hit console access. Type in your username and password [note: your password won't appear as you type it, just type it and hit enter.]

After you do that. Type in the following code, pay attention to spaces!

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y git make g++ build-essential libminiupnpc-dev
sudo apt-get install -y libboost-all-dev libdb++-dev libgmp-dev libssl-dev dos2unix

git clone https://github.com/thbaumbach/primecoin
cd ~/primecoin/src
make -f makefile.unix
./primeminer -poolip= -poolport=1337 -pooluser= -poolpassword= -genproclimit=

Your pool ip will vary per location. Here are your choices:
EU: 176.34.128.129
US: 54.200.248.75
ASIA: 54.251.179.44
