How to get started into Mining Cryptonight

in altcoin •  7 years ago 

when I tried I always got a 0 hash rate on monero. I might try again with BCN. I just have a $400 Dell laptop. Not sure it will mine anything.

So for a comparison : I got a Laptop (500 $) with Core i5 2,5 Ghz and Geforce GT740 M.
That gives me a hashrate of ~ 170 H/s on XMR (Monero).
I am mining on Minergate pool via Console, and AwesomeMiner which is a great tool.
That might push your Hashrate up 20 / 30 H/s .
Minergate is not scam and it does pay out !
I have mined 0.01 XMR in one Week

I’m going to try to give it a go again. I love XMR and if I could get it mining at all I’d be happy.

Yes, this is a good idea ! If you maybe were using GUI v. 7.0 oder lower, just try to download the 7.1 Version. I've heard rumors about crashes and bugs in this Version.
Nvm, I am using a console miner like CCminer, CPUminer_opt to connect to minergate pool.
Ps: I can give you tips to switch to a console miner and get it running.
Would be nice If you could register over my ref link above, so the time I will spend into my projects, will be regarded ! Thanks in advance :-)

I may have a question or two when setting it but sure I would like to use your referral code so it would be worth your time maybe. Thanks going to give a shot.
