Mining Steem Harder than it Sounds

in #steem-help8 years ago

Wow, I have been mining Alt Coins for some time now and stumbled across Steem.
So i thought to myself, Hey this will be cool!!!!!
After what seems like a thousand trials and errors I finally got a miner up and running and Yes found two Blocks.
However, I do not see that I received any kind of reward.
So I try to check my config.ini to see if its properly set and low and behold I screwed it up royally.
I am Lost and Confused!!!!!!!
Can someone Please explain why I did not receive a reward for finding two Blocks?

Hi you might also find this guide here useful:

After you find your first blocks you must claim your account using the unlocked cli wallet as described in the above article (george1234 is an example name)

unlocked >>> get_account "george1234"

It is an easy step to miss.

go to steemchat.com , theres a whole mining section there that helped me when i first started. If you can find a user called omotherhen , he helped me and was a fantastic help. good luck with your future mining .

thank you i will give it a go!!!!!

I wouldn't have a clue where to start. Hope you get it sorted

I hope that you managed to fix it. Good luck with mining :-)
