Title: $50 Bounty - Skype help me get my mac pro OSX mining protoshares
Post by: bitmarket on December 06, 2013, 10:29:16 pm
Hi guys,

I love the mission here and really want to rap my head around it so I can endorse it fully.  ( I have sizable lists in crypto world)

However, I cant even get the client working let alone mine.

If anyone helps me out on Skype and gets it up and running for me, $50 reward is on offer.

Thanks.

Further info.

I downloaded and ran the client
I received "no sources available" error.   I found a thread with that problem and it mentioned addnode commands.    I was unable to execute those instructions.   I think I need help unhidding files and locating the .bat file.

I cant even create a wallet, so mining is not good yet.   But thank you for the info.

You could always make a account at a PTS exchange (i.e. bter.com), and use that wallet ID to make the deposits.
It has the benefit that you don't have a trading fee when the pts-pool pay's out to your own wallet and then have to pay a transaction fee to get it on a exchange anyway..

Is it possible to re-direct the coyote miner to different pool?  If so, how?

Have you tried this?

Code: [Select]
./coyote_miner POOL_ADDRESS YOURKEY

I tried that with the PTSpool web address and got:
