A friend ask me if i can help him with a Guide to Mine Litecoins.I never mine before puhhh but i learn fast.

Short Intro about LiteCoins

Litecoin is a peer-to-peer Internet currency that enables instant payments to anyone in the world. It is based on the Bitcoin protocol but differs from Bitcoin in that it can be efficiently mined with consumer-grade hardware. Litecoin provides faster transaction confirmations (2.5 minutes on average) and uses a memory-hard, scrypt-based mining proof-of-work algorithm to target the regular computers with GPUs most people already have. The Litecoin network is scheduled to produce 84 million currency units.

One of the aims of Litecoin was to provide a mining algorithm that could run at the same time, on the same hardware used to mine Bitcoins. With the rise of specialized ASICs for Bitcoin, Litecoin continues to satisfy these goals. It is unlikely for ASIC mining to be developed for Litecoin until the currency becomes more widely used.

For more information, visit the Litecoin page.

On A running Windows System we can use CGMiner LTCRabbit V1.

Download CGMiner LTCRabbit V1 fork for mining Litecoins :  Download

Download unpack ánd run test batch > start_mining_ltcrabbit_slot_1.bat

Unbenann2t

After a short test give it 10 mins you can edit the batch file 1-4 with your worker + pass.

Or Write a Muti Mining batch with conf maybe later.

 

Accepted mean its works ;) and you can change you worker too your own worker.

If you have multi gpus you can test slot_2-4 too.

start_mining_ltcrabbit_slot_1.bat >> use gpu 0

start_mining_ltcrabbit_slot_2.bat >> use gpu 1

start_mining_ltcrabbit_slot_3.bat >> use gpu 2

start_mining_ltcrabbit_slot_4.bat >> use gpu 3

 

And Yes you can run all cards at the same time but only if you got 4 x vga cards or more.

Change your worker name + pass into the batch files with your own.

.\cgminer-3.7.2-windows\cgminer.exe --scrypt -u yourworkeruser.namehere -p yourpasswordhere -o stratum+tcp://eu.ltcrabbit.com:3333 --gpu-platform 0 -d 0 -w 256 -v 1 -I 18 -g 1 -l 1 -T  --thread-concurrency 6144

 

  • If you run annother graphic card, please find the correct settings for you specific card here. You definitely have to find the correct values for:
    intensity (-I) Please lower intensity if you experience problems.
    thread-concurrency
    gpu-thread (-g)

  • Save it now and close all other miners ,run batch file again.
