Zcash 1.0.0 online

installing my node now! Mining on suprnova: Last Hour 0.03048277

Hi, so thats exactly what I’m doing, VM on Macbook Pro. So I see the following:

  • You have validated 0 transactions!
  • You have contributed 1.4081 Sol/s on average to the network solution rate.
  • You have completed 838 Equihash solver runs.

As a solo miner, will I ever be able to mine a single ZEC?

Extremely unlikely, you’ll have to join a pool.

So what happens now? When will we see the first block or transactions?

The pool mining world to a noob like me, is a scary one. Can you link me to best guide for that in the universe?

I appear to be downloading too many blocks?

“blocks” : 378

I’ve deleted the blockchain and restarted but getting the same results?

What does it means “Init message: Activating best chain…” when starting zcashd ??

can explain someone?
i launch ubuntu, created wallet, now what? i don’t understand guide, what i must to launch on Ubuntu? i know suprnova user and password, but don’t know what is RPC…
Help please step by step

That number of blocks is accurate.

Are you trying to mine?

@paige No, not mining just creating a wallet.
I thought the block times were 2.5 minutes?

I think so many people are contributing hashing power right now that the difficulty needs to catch up.

Same here.
Strange because last time it was downloading both “sprout-proving.key” (902Mo) and “sprout-verifying.key”. I still have those files but their date is 24/10/2016 so they haven’t been updated as they should.

i don’t understan how mine on Ubuntu…

with this i don’t understand, i create t-addr, z-addr, now i need to enter my log pass Worker, but i see RPC, not suprnova… what to do if i have worker suprnova

mining guide updated: Home ¡ zcash/zcash Wiki ¡ GitHub

The guide says to use:

addnode=mainnet.z.cash
rpcuser=username
rpcpassword=head -c 32 /dev/urandom | base64
gen=1

Should be be substituting a username and password of our own creation or using the arguments exactly as above?

i have not added a user nor password nor t address. Where will my coins go? Also am i mining?

If you want to mine on suprnova:

1- stop zcashd (zcash-cli stop) & desactivate mining with zcashd (delete gen=1 in zcash.conf)

2- go to suprnova.cc, log into your account =>> go to help menu ==> howto start ==> search for the instructions to mine with “nheqminer” on linux.
