Solo mining Guide

Download and Install Incakoin-Qt and synchronise the blockchain

if you require nodes you can find them on the first post of this ANN

Close your Incakoin wallet

Open notepad and create file IncaKoin.conf

Copy file to C:\Users\yourpc\AppData\Roaming\incakoin

Write in IncaKoin.conf:
daemon=1
server=1
rpcuser=anything
rpcpassword=anything
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
rpcport=17422
listen=1


save the file

Now run Incakoin wallet as a server (only start Incakoin wallet)

Server value is set up in IncaKoin.conf

Now you can set up miner


Solo mining with the wallet and your CPU

Run your wallet

Help

Debug Window

Console

To Start mining type in the console: setgenerate true (1 or 2 depending on how many core you want to use)

To Check it is enabled and see if your mining type into the console: getmininginfo


I followed your destructions very closely and the wallet won't mine the coin. In console "getmininginfo" shows the network hashrate and that setgenerate is true and the genproclimit is correct but console reports the hashrate as zero. Not sure what's up with this but wanted to let you know my observation.

I went ahead and pointed my CPUminer at the coin and it seems to be mining just fine but I haven't gotten any block yet. When you consider the block reward is so low and the maturity is at 5000 blocks I'm not sure how excited people would be to do any serious mining? Maybe I'm missing something Cheesy

In console "getmininginfo" I see hashespersec =1005750
Networkhashps=403972

I've double checked everything and the only difference I can find is that on the wallet exe shortcut I've used the -datadir= command to relocate the incakoin folder away from my c drive. And for sure my hashrate is zero after changing setgenerate to true hmmm what could be the issue?

EDIT:

I figured it out. I had to unlock the wallet lol  Tongue

Ouch mined coins not available until 5000 blocks  Shocked

What's the block timing how long will it take to move 5k blocks down the chain hmmm?
