For anyone who is interested to mine as well. I used the following cpuminer: https://github.com/pooler/cpuminer/releases

Here is a step by step tutorial how to get it up and running (assuming that you have your wallet set and rpc server is active)

Step 1
Download the latest release which is currently v2.5.0
If your OS is 32bits use the pooler-cpuminer-2.5.0-win32.zip file
If its not use pooler-cpuminer-2.5.0-win64.zip

Step 2
Extract the archive where its convenient for you

Step 3
Create a .bat file where the extracted files are located, we will use ocean.bat in this example.
Paste the following code:

Code:

#ocean.bat for minerd
minerd -a sha256d -o 127.0.0.1:4699 --no-getwork --no-longpoll -u rpc_oceans -p 42f2a0be5caae9449f5e2f795 -t nthreads --no-stratum --coinbase-addr myaddress --coinbase-sig mysig --scantime 1800
PAUSE

Step 4
Impotant! make sure to make the following changes:
nthreads to the number of threads if your cpu has 8 threads try t 7
myaddress to your address
mysig to any value, basically it will appear as the coinbase signature in the blockchain

Recommandation
depending on how fast your cpu try to play with scantime value try values between 300 and 1800

In order to check how it is going see the example below, your balance should be updated if your block was accepted.

Couple of tips:
Make sure t argument has a slightly lower value than the number of cores/ threads that you have
I do not recommend mining on a laptop for long sessions. Make sure that CPU temperature is less than 65° to avoid damaging your hardware. You can check that with speccy.

Wow. Thank you!

Glad that I could help. I did a slight change in the code just in the beginning of the first line. I might do further changes in the future.

If anyone has a question or facing issues please feel free to share it in this thread.
