Intro Hey guys this Is a updated Guide to CPU Mining as it’s been a While since i made the original. I Made the Original Guide back in Jan. 19th 2014 and it’s been a long time since then and Bitcoin and Crypto has gone up a lot Since Then! I have a buddy who thinks that bitcoin mining is the shit.Now. Bitcoin Mining / GPU Risk. Nmeseth Apr 11. Any sources to credible tests/examples. Bitcoin Profitability Calculator – BTC Mining Profit Calculator. A disruptive technology like ASIC chips could show up and make GPU mining less profitable. Over the years, I tried investing a good amount of time and money in Cloud Mining since i thought that would be simpler and i would not have to worry about equipment, well all of my cloud mining investments turned out to be scam’s and a lost a lot of bitcoin that way! I now just stick with CPU / GPU / ASIC mining! This is the DEAD SIMPLE Guide to the Best CPU Mining Software! No Special Hardware Needed, No Video Card needed, No Special Drivers Needed. Just download, install and your good to go! New to CPU Mining? Where do you Start? Should you mine with you CPU or GPU (Graphics Card) or Both? Both Good questions. Cons: increased Electric cost, loud noise, Heat, lower the life of your equipment. Pros: Learn quickly about cryptocurrency, Possible to get rich, very little downside. You can resell equipment if needed Here is what i recommend I recommend starting with what you have, if you have a basic system the just use that, if you have a Gaming Rig great you will be off to a better start. Give mining a good week and see if it’s something you enjoy, or are you just getting stressed out? If after the first week you are hooked then maybe it’s time to look at a ASIC Rig or a GPU Rig, if you are not really excited about mining after then then Maybe Trading Altcoins, or Buying and Holding Bitcoin is the way you would like to invest in Crypto. Which Coin Should I Mine? If you want the Highest Profit it’s a never ending game of cat and mouse Some sites to look at for Highest Profit Right now: • • • Pick a Coin, any Coin You can decide on which coin to mine, Because they are all using a CPU miner and not a (Graphics Card) or GPU there is no good website like which will tell you the most profitable coin to mine. I would recommend trying one for 24hours then switching to the next coin the mine that one for 24 hours and so on until you have tried them all and then convert those coins to USD and see what is most profitable. Over time that you will want to try again and see if another coin is more profitable. How to Install the CPU Mining Software 1.) Disable your Antivirus. Disable for at least 15 Minutes, and Exclude from future Scans and here is why You should be saying – That seems Suspicious Why should i disable my antivirus is this a Virus? The answer is no it is not a Virus, you can verify this my reading the comments or my other posts or my videos, or download a software called which will let you test out software you don’t know if it’s good or bad. All CPU Miners will show up as Virus you can verify this by leaving you antivirus on and downloading a from a different site you antivirus will remove it before it even downloads. I recommend disable it for at least 15min. After it is download, installed and then you will need to Exclude the install folder Depends on Software installed from future Scans. All Crypto mining software will come up as a virus, if you can find one that does not I would be a miricale. More info here: 2.)Download In order of my personal Preference: Pick one pick them all it’s up to you, depending on you CPU / GPU one might work better than another so give them all a try, but once you find one you like stick with it for at least 1 week. 1.): Simple to use, will give you Alt-coins and you can convert them, you will learn a lot quickly, auto mines most profitable coin. 2.): Simple clean, will payout in Bitcoin weekly, no converting to a different coin, has a high profit. ): No worrying about a bitcoin wallet, Paypal payout, for people who want to see the CASH! ): 3.) Install 4.) Enter your Receive Wallet Address: If you don’t have a Wallet i recommend Enter your wallet for the Miner Type Selected, If you want to mine a Different coin you will need a address for Each Coin Mined. 5.)Test the CPU Mining Software Make sure Start Program invisible is Unchecked, Make sure IDLE & not IDLE is Selected and then Run, a Dos Screen should pop up and say Yay!! After a Minute or two. If nothing pops up check your antivirus software and try another coin see if it works then. 6.)Run Software on PC IDLE Verify the Coin you want to mine under Miner Type, check Start Program invisible, Run Program when: PC IDLE, then Click Run. 7.)Watch Keep a eye on your profit’s you should have at least a weekly payout. Some coins might come with in 1-2 hours others might take 2-3 days depending on your system speed and the coin difficulty. 8.) Exclude CPU Miner Software from your Antivirus How to Exclude a Folder Depending on your Antivirus Software. ( Exclude Folder C: Program Files (x86) Miner Software name) If you have another AV, just search google “exclude a file or a folder from scan (name of Antivirus)” Now you have my CPU Mining Software, go and get those Coins! Let me know if you want to see any other coins added to the software or if you have any problems below. If these seems way to much work your just not your thing Don’t give up on Crypto a couple of other ways to get into Cryptocurrency would be 1.) Purchase Via. You get $10 on new signups if you deposit $100. I recommend purchasing a set amount per month like lets say $50 per month for 1 year and after that revaulate if it’s right for you. 2.) In this case you would do stuff like marketing and put up blog posts and they will give you free altcoins 3.) Learn more about Crypto with Reading Books and listening to Podcast i like 4.) Join Facebook Groups Track you Profits: If you want to Tip or Donation: All Tips & Donation goes towards improving the software! Copy Donate Address: Send Coins: Spread the word please give me a Like, Google +, Tweet or just leave a comment! I am so glad I found your site Nick. So, to clarify, I can only do solo mining with your software on the 5 CPU coins you have listed? I tried a couple other CPU coins you don’t have listed on this site, like Megacoin and TagCoin and it does not give me anything. Not the case when I use your 5 CPU’s on the site. I vote a HUGE “YES” on you doing other CPUs! Thank YOU so much for making downloading Cryptocurrencies a lot easier. I have tried to figuer it out on my own and I have gotten nowhere except for the currencies you have on your site. 8>) Once again, Thanks, Damon •. Hello, I can’t get MemoryCoin to work either! I tried playing with the “x” options – but I’m not clear where to do what. Aaaaah Strangely enough I did not test all 3 x’s It seems to work now! Started 20 secs ago:> For all still not clear; do setup repair for clean configuration. Select Memorycoin. Paste your Memorycoin wallet address to receive. Change the options as follows: PROGRAM becomes: Yamyam.exe IDLE options: –config yam-mmc.cfg –mine getwork://[%coin]@mmcpool.1gh.com:8080:8081:8082:8083/mmc NOT IDLE OPTIONS ARGUMENT: –config yam-mmc.cfg –mine getwork://[%coin]@mmcpool.1gh.com:8080:8081:8082:8083/mmc Peace! ? And thank you for supporting this newbie;p MGCuagmtD7YxUJNZgDEY77GeeaReLm25n4 •. I think I may have improved the simple miner by downloading a C++ redistributable that apparently is lacking in Microsoft Vista. When I tried using it without this download, I would not get any pop-up of dos window, and no feedback as to whether the program was working or not. With the download, I get the pop-up window, but now find that all I am getting is error messages and constant messages that pool 0 has requested restart. Any suggestions as to anything else I can do with Vista to get this functioning properly? On my other computer, while running a trial copy of Win 7, I get quite a list of hashes and even one or two “Yay’s”, but nothing of the sort with Vista. Is a full system update my only answer? I also now notice that cgminer logs in using your dogecoin address. Should this be changed to my wallet address, or is this something built into the version of miner that you are using to control other options? And, one more question–how can I prevent the dos window from popping up constantly and interfering with other use of my computer. I cannot do anything at all without it blocking my screen and making it necessary to send the window to task bar. However, it simply will not go into silent mode and keeps popping up with endless messages that stratum has requested work restart. Hi Nick, was your old software working through the pool? How much are we donating? Can we change the percentage? Can one computer mine all the different coins at once? Is this productive? Is there an order of which ones built in are the most productive at this time? Are wallets specific for each coin or can I use one wallet for all different coins? Is there any way to speed the synchronization? Download a file? Is it better to mine on multiple slow computers or one faster? If virtual machines are set up does that dilute the mining for each machine? Why is pool mining better? Can I use the same wallet for multiple machines? I know this is a lot of questions. Thanks in advance! Thank i set it up like that in the newer version incase on minerd gets froozen or stuck the other one will take over each is mining around 50% of the core, before i had a lot of people say it would stop mining so i try this to fix it. Right now under Quark it is setup to autodetect how many Thread you have and use all of them if you want to limit them go to Settings and Arguments -t 4 or the number you want at the end of both idle and not idle, on hyper threading no extra speed for quark that i have seen i will keep my eye out for a improved miner though. Thanks, that’s great, yea, they really screwed up the launch, GPUs ready from the word go, even though they said there wouldn’t be. Wasn’t fair at all. They released a windows gui wallet today. I cpu mined for a bit and got nearly 3 maxcoins, pools were falling apart, the one I was on double paid at one point by mistake, & then had to ask users to kindly give back the double payment or there wouldn’t’ be enough to pay others what they had mined, I got nothing paid out yet, but i’m getting less and less as time goes by anyway, doubt I’ll make it to 3 at this rate. Ok this is wierd i let it run over the night and the site still shows 0 on Everything but now i have some in my wallet. Changed the settings Yamyamx.exe to Yamyam.exe and copied the options config. I also updated the Yam to yam-yvg1900-M7m-win64-sandy-bridge (i have a Intel Core I7 2600K). Also is there a command to make it run on only 7 of the 8 cores? I’m mining LiteCoins at the same time and if i dont change the programs core settings it only loses about 50% mining speed but if i change the settings with the Task manager it only looses about 5% •.

And thank you for supporting this newbie;p MGCuagmtD7YxUJNZgDEY77GeeaReLm25n4 •. Nick, I wanted to tell you that I was able to sync the Qubit and Max coin wallets. If you or any one else wants and/or needs help let me know. We can e-mail and by any means we can communicate and get the job done. Getting them to sync was easy part, getting the correct information was very hard. So far by your help (your program & site) I have been able to mine DODE coins, but my windows wallet has stopped receiving coins since 24 January 1014. I don’t know why. I had to turn off the miner for it, wife was getting a little pissed off. I was using her laptop for mining DODE. The wallet is up to date and the miner does show shares accepted. Again thank you and keep up the great work and sharing the knowledge with all of us, and like me who does not know jack about computers, software and about coins. So, far I have got some coins like SRC, DOGE, DTC, QRK, Q2C & MAX. I have not been lucky on MMC & PTS, the software does not work for me. Have mined some XPM but not enough to show-up in wallet yet. Are you planning to do something for KittehCoin, I like this coin. If you could I and some others will really appreciate it. I do have one suggestion for you Nick, is there a way you can create an e-mail list for all your fans out there and let them know about any updates you might have or something new on your site. This way when you have a new miner for a new coin everyone gets an e-mail and we all can jump on it. I know its a little time consuming but once the e-mail list is up and running and people can add them to it. Oh boy, wrote a little too much. Nick, Thank you!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for all the Support, If you could post what Steps you took to Fix the Qubit and Maxcoin i have had a lot of people ask me how to sync and i have had some trouble myself with those two in the past. I am coming out with a update version hopefully very soon should let you mine MMC & PPC of your PC, I want to get a GPU miner Going With Kittehcoin/Dogecoin/Maxcoin/ Etc in the works hopefully in a week or so. I have e-mail setup it’s blasting out once a month right now on my new post’s but i am trying to release give people who sign up a Sneak Peek at the post before anyone else gets to look at it. Keep up the Idea’s for improvement! Hi nick ive tried mining all the other coins in the simple miner program but the only one i can get to work is secure coin as with the other ones either the program doesnt work or the wallets just wont sync though after two days of mining ive received nothin into my wallet and i even checked the p2pool.com website and my address wasnt even in the payout tab so i was wonderinh if maybe you can recommened an online wallet i could use tho mine the secure coins and by the way thanks for your help on everything •. So stupid noob question, and I readily admit that I am not terribly technically proficient, but I’ve now tried several coins: litecoin, Memorycoin, primecoin, maxcoin and I just started to try securecoin. Haven’t had any luck at all. Using your recommended miner. Didn’t go full 24 hours on any of them but ran them for quite a few hours and got zero. Got pretty deep into my system but could see where to enable AES-NI, the only thing disabled was called “virtualization”. First question is that it does seem from my reading that coins should appear directly into my respective wallets on my computer after a few hours, or am I missing something? The other question I have is that I am homeless and broke, get computer/electricity either staying at a friends or library, starbucks etc, but I have a decent and very caring social network. Can they run the miner program on their computers and then plug in my wallet address to send me coins? It would be a way for them to help me just using their spare processing power and a few of them have expressed that they like that idea. I am also wondering if anyone in this community would be willing to send me any fraction of a securecoin just so I can see that this thing actually works (and because I’m tired of looking at 0.00 balances in my wallets). I’m also just very interested in this as a cultural commentator/armchair futurist. Thanks for the resource you have provided here. Securecoin: sLnBSdGexQVQfaW6mo5a5Bt9BrEt1Axpka •. It actually is an interesting question, to me at least for obviously selfish reasons, what kind of social good could be accomplished by the coordination of donating bit-mining to a person/cause/venture. Imagine a sort of social network that could coordinate to say, “On Feb 22, 2015 interested miners should place the following address in their miners for 24 hours to benefit Jane Doe’s attempt to do X”. For the participants it’s just electricity and processing power but for the beneficiary potentially life changing. Or imagine taking solar powered processing rigs and satellite internet connections into isolated places in Africa or wherever. You could have a local school (or hospital or community center what have you) set up the rig and mainly use the computer for all the things computers are good at in those sorts of ventures, and then dedicate the spare processing power to bit-mining currency which they could then use to expand and support their operation. In particular I like the idea of solar processing, since one of the main production expenses here is electricity. Turning sunlight into money. I like that idea. Since Iceland is planning on abandoning their fiat currency for cryptocurrency this is obviously going to be a huge force going in to a very, very strange future. It would be interesting to see what could happen if people interested in this, even just occasionally, took a break from generating thirty seven cents a day for themselves using an old laptop and collectivized that activity for some project or other. I’d be happy to be the focus of such a project! I do some social commentary here: •. Just an update and then I’ll shut up as not everyone likes to hear me talk as much as I do, but Securecoin worked! Think it was just a couple of hours but 0.00187 SRC shows up in my wallet as “immature”. Don’t know how that translates into USD and don’t care, just kind of exciting to see proof of concept. Regardless, my plan is to build up these coins for quite some time until it is financially meaningful for me to cash out. The point of the post is that I chose SRC after seeing posts by other frustrated bit-miners who said that this is the only coin that worked for them. Well, it works for me too! Again I thank you for collecting and posting all this information here. I’ve been all over trying to find good information on this subject since I heard about Iceland, and this is definitely the best resource. Well done, congratulations and many, many thanks! Hello, My name is matias, am 18 years old and I am from Uruguay so I speak Spanish, and I wrote these lyrics by the translator, then I hope you will forgive me for this haha I’m new to the mining and I started to try relatively new coins as much as LTC BTC are very difficult to mine with an ordinary PC. I started with Primecoin, MemoryCoin, QuarkCoin, MegaCoin, SecureCoin and DarkCoin, and I have ” mined ” some of this with the Setup CpuMiner. Who has given me ” more gain ” has DarkCoin acid, I think. Turns out as I am new I do not understand anything you do or say, or mean numbers, if they are good, if they are bad or that they do the mining my CPU. Ihave a FX4100 quad -core ( 3.6GHz ) and being 100% I do not know if the numbers and data that makes me the command are good or bad for a mine, there is something that tells me every goal that was accepted and that but do not know how to or like. Would request if possible a little explanation can attach a photo of my command if you do not mind to tell me whether or uqe my mined pays no. The photo you take is a minefield of DarkCoin makes this 6 hours running and going 27 of 29 accepted. Also, what mean “yay” and “boo”? Pardon my ignorance but again I’m new jaja From already thank you very much. Regards Matias •. It would be great if you could add Popularcoin (POP) to the list that works with your program. STRATUM:stratum+tcp://pop.pools.triplehexxx.netPORT:3333 I’ve been trying to add it myself to minerd, but when I try to open minerd it just comes up for a millisecond and then closes again. I added a.bat file to the directory with POP pool but I still get the same issue where it the DOS window pops up for just a second and then vanishes. Do not get it. I also tried to get the GUI GPU miner to work on my computer, but it doesn’t recognize my card (even though it says ANY AMD card would work) I have a 5550 which I know wouldn’t provide much in the way of hash rate but again I am simply trying to learn about this stuff as much as anything. I downloaded everything,followed the steps,but I’ve been encountering a few problems since then. I Started out with mining dogecoins and things were sent to an wallet I established on MultiDoge. HOWEVER,from a balance of 611 or so Doges, not only was it reduced to zero but the wallet account was lost and unable to retrieve it through back up. Also,when I went to restart the CPU Coin Miner,it was only done that one time only. It would not restart or reboot or anything. Not being tech savvy, what should I do to regain lost doges from MultiDoge,and do I dare repeat the download steps for the CPU miner listed on this page?? I must be doing something wrong. I installed the program and clicked on darkcoins, changed the wallet to mine, have it set to start idle and not idle, saved everything. Then when it started the first time, it did a list for several pages and then said it couldn’t connect with the server or some such wording but it was hashing before that. So I stopped and started over. Now it only shows nine lines: 1. Binding thread 0 to cpu 0 2. Binding thread 1 to cpu 1 3. Binding thread 2 to cpu 2 4. 4 miner threads started, using “script’ algorithm. Binding thread 3 to cpu 3 6. Starting Stratum on stratum+cp:elitter.net.7903 7. Stratum_recv_line failed 8. Retry after 30 seconds. Stratum connection failed: Failed connect to elitter.net:7903; No error 10. Then lines 8 and 9 continue to be repeated every 30 seconds sometimes saying what is in 7 above followed by 8 and sometimes showing what is in 9 above followed by line 8. Don’t understand why it started to work and then stopped. And now I just keep getting the same thing over and over again. Is there another miner I should be using for darkcoins on a cpu? 1- BEST TRUSTED LEGIT AND PAYING BITCOIN INVESTMENT COMPANY SINCE 2016 JOIN NOW EARN 1% to 2% DAILY Up to 40% per month MINIMUM INVESTMENT $100 3 LEVELS(5%,3%,2%) REFERRAL COMMISSIONS INVESTMENT GUIDE: Step 1: Login and Click EXCHANGE and Deposit BTC Step 2: Click Exchange SCROLL DOWN and Buy BITCONNECT(BCC) atleast worth of $100 or More with Bitcoin on trading platform Step 3: Proceed to Dashboard and Click LEND BITCONNECT Step 4: Enter 100 amount or above.
