I am sure a lot of you have tried mining bitcoin and it just hasn’t worked out. Let me tell you
why. The difficulty for mining bitcoin is so high that you have to have around 100GH/s of ASIC
power to earn anything. The people that earned the real bitcoins started when bitcoin first
started. The difficulty was under 1 and just about any user could earn over 100 BTC in a day.
But then, the difficulty increased and it became so hard to get the coin. Then the value went
up to $50, then $100, then $500, and then $1000. What if you were one of those people who
kept their bitcoins at the start and had billions worth of bitcoin? That would be awesome. This
book is going to show you how to make out rich like those guys.
Method #1
Requirements:
● Computer
● Web Server
● MySQL Server
● Minimal knowledge of PHP/HTML+CSS (optional)
If you do not have any of these let me know I would be happy to set one up for cheap
($0.99)
Here is how it works:
We are going to set up a fun game for your friends (or anyone else) to play and
bet bitcoins on. This game is a BTC Arena! You buy different weapons and based on
how much you pay you will have a higher chance of winning, it uses the random.org to
randomly generate a number.
Step 1 (Uploading the Scripts):
Ok Download the .zip file I have for you here:
http://btcarena.privatecloudhosting.com/btcarena.zip Now all you gotta do is unzip that
folder and upload it to your server. You now have a UI for your users to use. PLEASE
MODIFY THE CSS IT IS NOT WHAT I WOULD CONSIDER A FINAL PRODUCT! I
wanted to leave you room to add your own creative spin on it by adding nice css. BUT
YOU MAY LEAVE IT AS IS AND IT WILL STILL FUNCTION.
Step 2 (Changing info):
You MUST have a blockchain wallet for this to work!!! We use the blockchain sending
API and the receiving API. Go into the “dbc.php” file and change all of the values to
match your info so for example if my Blockchain Wallet Identifier was “HackForums” I
would change the line ‘$guid = “”;’ to ‘$guid = “HackForums”;’ You have to put in all
your SQL details as well.
Still working a little You like the idea behind it? You can comment by selecting stuff.
Step 3 (Uploading .SQL):
There is a .SQL file in the folder. Create a new database and run the code from the file
on the SQL server. If you are using phpmyadmin find the tab that looks like this:
Step 4 (Get Users):
Just advertise it and people will think it is cool ESPECIALLY IF YOU CHANGED THE
CSS (*hint**hint* *wink**wink*).
CONTACT ME IF YOU HAVE ANY
ISSUES! (I did program it after all :) )
Method #2
Requirements:
● Computer
● Scrypt miner (Or Bitcoin)
Here is how it works:
We are going to find new coins that look promising and mine them for 2 days
each. We will then keep these coins and if/when they go up we will trade them in.
Step 1 (Finding Coins):
Ok let’s go to the altcoin section of bitcointalk. Then we will look at some coins
and see which ones we think will actually go somewhere. Keep in mind that that
currency people thought was a joke, Dogecoin, actually went somewhere and doubled
in price the other day. Choose a few coins that you think are going somewhere and put
their names in a list. Then put a pool of your choice that is listed next to the name.
Then when you have selected the coins you want to mine, download the wallets for the
coins.
Step 2 (Mining):
An investment worth making: here.
Ok now sign up at a pool and point your miner to it for 2 days (or more), then
move on to the next currency.
Don’t know how to mine? Here is how:
Windows:
Go grab sgminer for windows (cgminer doesn’t support scrypt anymore) and follow the
instructions to compile it. Then, once compiled, type in CMD (without quotes) “sgminer
o stratum+tcp://pool:port u username p password” but fill in the info the pool you
chose gives you.
Mac:
Download asteroid.app. Open the file and scroll down to new pool in the pool
dropdown. Enter in your pool’s info and hit the play button in the kh/s bar.
Linux:
Download sgminer. Then follow the *nix instructions on the github page.
Then type in (without quotes) “sgminer o stratum+tcp://pool:port u username p
password” with your pool’s info.
Step 3 (Trading/Monitoring)
Keep a list of the bitcointalk threads where you found the alternate currencies. Monitor
them and make sure you bookmark any currency exchanges that accept the coin. If the
price skyrockets, go to an exchange (or trade them on a forum) and sell 50% of your
coins. Keep the rest so if the price steadily goes up and is worth even more, you still
have some to sell.
Blackhat addon:
Mine with your bots. I recommend PLASMA RAT RATnet/botnet for mining because it is
the most stable, and has the miner built into the client/server.
