This page should provide guideline how to use VeriCoin and Verium on Windows Systems.

VeriCoin Wallet

Installation

Configuration

Usage

Backup

The wallet stores private key information in a file named wallet.dat. It contains:

  • keypairs for each of your addresses
  • transactions done from/to your addresses
  • user preferences
  • default key
  • reserve keys
  • accounts

The wallet.dat file is located in

 ~/Library/Application Support/vericoin/

Backup your wallet.dat in a secure place (USB drive, CD, ...).

Troubleshooting

This is the problem confirm you have no wake on demand features active https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201960

This causes the wallet to sleep it’s connectivity and wake it up but it wakes it up too late and stakes get orphaned By the way you are not losing interest once you get a good stake it will account for time since your last good one. The orphaned (?) stakes aren’t actually lost interest you can still get that interest in another stake.

So basically just unclick "Put hard disk to sleep when possible" and "Wake for Wi-Fi network access" and "Enable Power Nap while plugged into a power adapter".

Verium Mining

Using Ubuntu instead of Mac OS can increase your Hashrate by 10-20% .

Mining Software

Easiest Method: Download Precompiled binary

Open Terminal

 cd (insert folder location)

Run cpuminer how you wish

 ./cpuminer <flags>

Compilation

fireworm71/veriumMiner Installation on Intel CPU's (Yosemite/El Capitan)

open Terminal / from Utilities - may pop up for install from App Store

 xcode-select --install

install home brew: http://brew.sh

 /usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
 brew install automake curl openssl gcc zlib jansson

After installing OpenSSL with brew

 cd /usr/local/include
 ln -s ../opt/openssl/include/openssl
 brew doctor
 brew update
 brew upgrade

run git clone

 git clone https://github.com/fireworm71/veriumMiner
 cd veriumMiner
 ./autogen.sh
 ./nomacro.pl

type this manually (cut and paste is funny)

 ./configure CFLAGS=“-march=native” --with-crypto --with-curl

ignore m4 dir errors if you see them

 make

Run cpuminer how you wish

 ./cpuminer <flags>

Docker
