    It seems 'generate' is an unknown flag, even though it is on the '--help' list.

    I can also not mine.
    Already created my portfolio, already recebir currencies, however when I open ccminer always me of this error below:
    Code:
    [2016-02-01 22:26:39] Started cgminer 3.7.2
    [2016-02-01 22:26:39] Started cgminer 3.7.2
    [2016-02-01 22:26:39] Probing for an alive pool
    [2016-02-01 22:26:39] Pool 0 slow/down or URL or credentials invalid
    The command I am using is:

    Code:
    cgminer --blake256 -o https://127.0.0.1:19109 -u xxx -p xxx
    What am I doing wrong ??

    when you start dcrd for the first time for mining, the command must have your wallet addy in it

    dcrd --testnet --notls -u xxxxx -P xxxxxx --miningaddr=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    then

    cgminer --blake256 -o http://127.0.0.1:19109 -u xxxxx -p xxxxxx

    Good luck

    One question that's bothering me:
    Do I need to have the wallet open and on the same machine?
    Or I can mine with the wallet closed.

    the wallet must to be open and dcrd need to be started with this command :

    dcrd --testnet -u edit -P edit --miningaddr=edit with address --notls

    this is the wallet command to pow and pos togheter:

    dcrwallet -u edit -P edit --dcrdusername=edit --dcrdpassword=edit --noclienttls --noservertls --enablestakemining --balancetomaintain=edit --ticketmaxprice=edit

    to easly run cgminer just modify the .bat file (rename in .txt then put user e psw in then rename .bat).
    after this double clik the .bat with both dcrd and wallet on and cgminier will start

    Yes, however what I put in Edit?

    running just these two commands seems to be by mining.

    Code:

    with 29.86Mh/s i dont think 1000 year will be enough.

    you have to join one pool or you can't solo mine :)

    Are you sure?

    _ingosh quote on btctalk (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1290358.msg13731786#msg13731786)

    "Solo mining is very binary - you either get nothing or a lot. In a pool, you get a little bit for every block the pool finds. Typically and over time, this increases your earnings as a miner. This is also proportional to the hash power you provide to the pool. The second part of the issue is that once the network hash power is sufficiently higher than your available hash power, the chances of you solo finding a block effectively go to 0. So getting a small piece of every block the pool finds is better than 0 - given that it's proportional to your hash power."

    Is intensity 2 the best setting here? Just noticed that on cgminer a 12 or 13 is best...not sure for ccminer but I think you can get more... That being said pool is proabalby still best.
