I was expecting to see a bit more people posting here.
Solo mining (currently there are no pools) is going well, but I see a bunch of people having issues understanding how to get started. Due to this, I am pasting the guide that has been shared and pinned on Telegram below.
- Download the Mining software from the link on the official website, or the official Bitcointalk thread.
- launch the miner
- type "account new"
it should prompt you and ask to set a new password. Enter a password (be careful, there are no double checks. If you fail this and enter a password you then don't know where you fucked up, go to the Troubleshoot step)
- type "contract select 0x8f7dbf90e71285552a687097220e1035c2e87639" , 0xXXXXX being the Catether's smart contract address
- type "config web3provider
https://mainnet.infura.io/gmXEVo5luMPUGPqg" (it's an "L" lowercase, not a " i " uppercase 🙂)
solo mining :
- type "config gasprice X". (X should be between 3 and 11 Gwei; check on ethgasstation.info for more precision
- type "account list". Write down the public address that shows up as "selected account"
- send some Ether on the address that shows up above.
- type "mine cuda" (Solo-mining with a CPU won't work, unless you're the most lucky guy on earth, ahah)
pool mining:
- type "pool select http://#####.com:###" (this should be the address provided by your pool)
- type "pool mine cuda", or "pool mine" if you don't have a GPU (I wouldn't recommend to mine with your CPU, though, it's inefficient)
troubleshooting :
- go in ~/AppData/Roaming/.0xbitcoin/0xbtcminerstore/ and delete the vaultdata file. Go back to step one.
I hope this helps a few people and I look forward to seeing everyone on Discord/Telegram!
