in siacoin •  8 years ago 

Today I set up some mining for SiaCoins, just to try it out. It is another cryptocurrency, decentralized for Cloud-hosting/storing.

It was pretty easy if you have linux (haven't done it on Windows yet).
All you have to do is download the Sia Wallet: http://sia.tech/apps/

Install it and write down your wallet "code": YourSiacoinAddress (will be used below)

Then head over to https://siamining.com/

Here you have the help you need to make it happen:

The final comman I ran is:

./marlin -u YourSiacoinAddress.YourWorkerName -I 28

Workername is simply "whatever you want".

Here's a picture of what it looks like when you start getting successful hashes:
