Mining Duino-Coin on Raspberry Pi

Mining Duino-Coin on Raspberry Pi can be pretty simple if you know how to do it. First install a Raspberry Pi OS on to a micro sd card. Depending on what Pi you have the os could be different. I would suggest for a new install that you use Raspberry Pi OS 32 bit because it is the quickest to download and is easy to work with. Once you have all of that done boot it up and fill out all of the account creation.

Once you have been directed to the desktop now it is time to start setting up your DUCO miner. First thing to do it make sure you have a internet connection and update your pi. The internet icon is on the top right corner next to the blue tooth and eject button(if you have a disk).

Once connected open the terminal which is on the top bar. The first thing to do it this command

sudo apt update

Then it will update the Pi to the newest version of RPI OS. The next thing to do is

sudo apt upgrade -y

This activates all of the upgrades that you just scanned for and any others that are optional. Next you want install python if you don’t already have it. Most Raspberry pi OS come with Python3 already installed, but it is best to just run the command anyway.

sudo apt install python3 python3-dev git

If you already have python3 it will say that python 3 is already installed and up to date. The next thing that you are going to want to do is download the source code for Duino-Coin. Type this into the terminal.

git clone https://github.com/revoxhere/duino-coin

Once it installs it will ask you for your duino coin username. Now what you want to do is leave the terminal open and open chromium or a web browser and go to https://wallet.duinocoin.com/ to create a web wallet if you don’t already have one. It will ask you a series of questions about why you want a wallet and answer them truthfully. Once you start to put in your stuff make sure to set a mining key, for this is important to keep your account safe and to connect to your pi.

Once you are done with all that head back to the terminal window and put in the duino user name as the one that you just set. When it asks for the mining key set it to what you set it as. Next it will ask if you would like to set a rig name. I would suggest calling it rpi. After that it will ask you if you want to donate. You don’t have to. Then it will ask you for a thread rate. Just put four. Next it will ask you four a mining speed. Depending on what device you have set it. If you have a RPI Zero or Zero 2 W set it to one. If you have a RPI 4/400 then set it to two. Three is for higher end computers.

Next it will start to mine shares. Every share is mines it send Duco to your account. to see your account go to https://wallet.duinocoin.com/index.html. The more shares that you mine, the more DUCO you get. You can also get DUCO From faucets. faucets give out free Duco with a cooldown time. If you go to https://beyondfaucet.com/duinocoin/ you have get 2.5 DUCo every hour. At https://duco-faucet.pcgeek.pl/ you can get different amounts every fifteen minutes. Keep in mind that if you don’t wait for the cooldown you the time restarts.

The last important thing is to get your account verified. if you go to your wallet right above your balance you will see something that says unverified. if you click on it, it will take you through how to get verified and what will happen if you don’t. To get verified you have to say what your mining rig is and take a picture of it with your username written on a piece of paper in the shot. I would keep trying until you can if it doesn’t work. Take as many pictures as necessary.

If you would like to donate please send DUCO to gamecat999 via the send option.
