I am planning to buy a Raspberry Pi 2 for mining Tokyocoin. Can anyone point to me some websites or links that would help me mine this coin? I am really interested in mining but I don't have the know how. Many say you need to be a programmer to understand the language but I am only in for the mining part. Can someone help?

My stake computer is a small itx board with quad core cpu and linux. I have a raspi2 too. You have to use a fast micro sd. Class 10 is recommended. But iam not happy with the raspi as wallet. All in all its very slow. Maybe it runs better without gui wallet. But i dont like that way.

I dont know where you from, but you can google it in your language. I have this board:

With pico psu, 4gb ram, hdd and itx tower, it should cost less than 150$.

I have a Nav, Tokc, Gplay and RDD wallet for staking on this and everything runs fine. My Os is Lubuntu 14.04. Its a lightwight easy to use os.

If your only option is a raspberry pi, you should use lubuntu 14.04 ARM. Tokc wallet runs into openssl problems with newer ubuntu lts versions. Maybe there is a easy workarround, but the easiest way is to use a compatible os. I never used tokc on raspi, but i dont see a reason, why it should not work. My english is not the best, but its not a problem for me to give help. Feel free to write me a pm, if you have any questions.

Edit: You dont need to be a programmer to mine tokc^^ Its very easy. Install the wallet and let it stake.

  


Thanks for the heads up mate. My main reason for that plan is basically to be able to leave a computer 24/7 without any issues so I can stake my coins there and I will be able to make sure that I can leave the said cpu on without experiencing any problems. Though it was also mentioned that it is slow so I am not sure if that will help stake multiple coins.

My itx board is 24/7 online without any problems. Power consumbtion is only ~10 watt. You can run it headless from everywhere in your house and control it via remote desktop. Only power cable and network is needed. I think that is the best way for a staking rig. And you have the option for more than one coin. On Raspi you can install max 1 wallet. And its very slow then. Maybe raspi 3 is a bit faster. But i dont know.

I would suggest a cheap used laptop. You can buy one for around $50. Very low power use, and you can run as many wallets as you like. Also very easy to secure if need be.
Just make sure to encrypt, and back up your wallets.
