Dear all, I have not received any coins after a few days ‘mining’. I know the difficulty went up and despite upgrading my zcashd to include Tromp’s solver via Sarath’s updated client I am still yet to receive any balance. How am I able to list my TADDR? zcash-cli Z\_listaddresses doesn’t appear to have a corresponding command for T? ``` testnet=1 addnode=betatestnet.z.cash rpcuser=username rpcpassword=password gen=1 genproclimit=3 ``` I read somewhere, that it’s best not to use all cores (and also excl. HyperThreading cores into calculation) as it performs better. I have an i5-6500 thus, set to 3. ``` : ~/zcash$ ./src/zcash-cli getmininginfo { "blocks" : 9663, "currentblocksize" : 18260, "currentblocktx" : 6, "difficulty" : 2566.27986348, "errors" : "This is a pre-release test build - use at your own risk - do not use for mining or merchant applications", "genproclimit" : 3, "networkhashps" : 267, "pooledtx" : 7, "testnet" : true, "chain" : "test", "generate" : true } : ~/zcash$ ./src/zcash-cli getinfo { "version" : 1000025, "protocolversion" : 170002, "walletversion" : 60000, "balance" : 0.00000000, "blocks" : 9663, "timeoffset" : 0, "connections" : 8, "proxy" : "", "difficulty" : 2516.63631836, "testnet" : true, "keypoololdest" : 1476896413, "keypoolsize" : 101, "paytxfee" : 0.00000000, "relayfee" : 0.00005000, "errors" : "This is a pre-release test build - use at your own risk - do not use for mining or merchant applications" } ``` Please advise, ---

You are not mining. For Saraths miner to work you need to connect to a pool. ---

There is also an integration into zcashd (as well as standalone) see here [https://github.com/zcash/zcash/pull/1570](https://github.com/zcash/zcash/pull/1570) but they may well be using the standalone miner ---

Yes. My changes are in zcash master branch. Start your daemon with “-equihashsolver tromp” option. ---

Hi @sarath-hotspot, You are a very big surprise to this community. Thank you for your contributions. On the zcash master branch, is the integration of tromp solver both for CPU and CUDA? How would I implement it if I will use - CPU only - CUDA (nvidia gpu) only - both (if supported) Thanks. ---

@neo Feels good to contribute to zcash/opensource community. My changes support only CPU miner. I didn’t integrate GPU miner. ---

Here are my steps: Followed the BETA guide ([Home · zcash/zcash Wiki · GitHub](https://github.com/zcash/zcash/wiki/Beta-Guide)) but instead of git clone [GitHub - zcash/zcash: Zcash - Internet Money](https://github.com/zcash/zcash.git) I did git clone [GitHub - sarath-hotspot/zcash: zcash](https://github.com/sarath-hotspot/zcash.git) Secondly, installed the miner, following this guide: [Home · sarath-hotspot/zcash Wiki · GitHub](https://github.com/sarath-hotspot/zcash/wiki) Started the deamon on first terminal screen: cd ./zcash ./src/zcashd -daemon ./src/zcash-cli getnewaddress Opened second terminal screen: cd ./zminer ./src/zcash-miner -stratum=stratum+tcp://zmine.io:1337 -user=//TADDR// -printtoconsole -debug I didn’t follow the [zmine.io](http://zmine.io) git clone as I assumed that would overwrite @sarath-hotspot 's miner Mining for another 18 hours or so and still no coins - can anyone point me where I might be going wrong?

In the zcash or zminer directory? Didn’t seem to work for me the ‘normal’ way: ``` ~/zcash$ ./src/zcashd -daemon -equihashsolver tromp Error: There is no RPC client functionality in zcashd. Use the zcash-cli utility instead. ``` ---

Right - one step closer. And perhaps, silly question - what happens if you run: ``` ./src/zcash-miner -stratum=stratum+tcp://zmine.io:1337 \ -user=//TADDR// -printtoconsole -debug ``` Without running the daemon. It seems to be display ‘submitted and accepted’ so wonder if it’s actually working. If not, how do I configure the poolminer to use all cores as it appears to be unaffected by the zcash.conf ---

If you’ve figured out how to list the t\_addresses I would be grateful if you could share how. I generated a few t\_addresses so I have no idea to what address I’m mining to. ---

Search for the gui wallet for linux. That or use a ‘cloud’ based wallet like Poloniex
