Setting up Chaincoin Mining - Exchange
Plan:
Setup a Cryptopia account and generate a chaincoin wallet(Done). Download the miner and set it pointed at that address(not recommended!) or you can hit mine for a test CJPFiptpdxDtx6dq1YvgTars2AgV8SuFW8. Secondary is creating a local wallet and pointing miner there(not done).
Short Instructions:
Step 1: Start a cryptopia account. Navigate to Wallets, and search for CHC. Click deposit next to CHC, and copy down that wallet address.
Step 2: connect the ccminer-x64.exe to yiimp.ccminer.org.
Notes: ccminer-x64.exe -a <algo> -o <url> -u <wallet> -p <blank> -c=<specific coin to mine>
ccminer-x64.exe -a c11 -o stratum+tcp://yiimp.ccminer.org:3573 -u CJPFiptpdxDtx6dq1YvgTars2AgV8SuFW8 -p c=CHC

Results:
Getting about 18 Mh/s combined from all 4 gtx1080s. It has reduced Zcash mining effectiveness by 25% but both EWCB and CCminer appear to be running together just fine. I am going to keep both the reduced Zcash and the Chaincoin mining together until i see results in cryptopia, or til i get the local wallet up and running and test it there.
Update Results:
This plan has worked. Mining with CCminer to Cryptopia to mine Chaincoin is working.
At some point I might have to switch to Zcash... - I'll ride ETH / Ethhash + Sia for as long as I can though.
Is it more profitable (as it stands currently) for you to mine this way or are you banking on Chaincoin to go up?
Upvoted and Resteemed.
I have yet to calculate the profitability. This was an exercise in staying nimble in the market. Being able to switch miners and get from one coin to the next when the prices are moving is what I think is being good at this job... I think. I like the exercise, it keeps my linux and windows skills sharp. Ill post more here as I am testing new coins, and install methods and such. But for your maths pleasure, 19 MHs mined 0.12969689 CHC in 3.5 hours.
