Re: How I Am Solo Mining Bitcoin on a Mac Using Bitcoin QT, cgminer & Antminer U2
Absolutely brilliant. Even for 2014 - I don't care. You solved a LOT of stuff I was lurching about in the dark over.
If anyone is still reading this thread ever - create pure text files on a Mac by using Terminal, and then VI (vi) the unix text editor. Pure text, with a steep learning curve because it's command-line stuff. :-)
but hey. Thanks for the brilliant article.
are you still mining by the way
?

Thanks for the kind words Robert! I'm glad the article was helpful.
I'm out of the mining game for now, but might jump back in with an S9 or two. I have to figure out where to put 'em. I'm guessing they're pretty loud.
Before dropping out of the game, I worked my way up to some S5s and was going at it around 4TH. While the machines still held some value, I sold the whole rig to recoup some of the cash investment.
All in all, I am very happy with how much I put in, how many coins I mined and all of that. And this recent spike in BTC price doesn't hurt a bit
Have fun everyone. These are exciting times for sure!
And if you're reading this, quick question, would you buy awesome small-batch beef jerky for bitcoin? I'm thinking about accepting it on my new site at DundalkDan.com. Let me know.
Thanks, Dan
