Yes, we can use stc box,the hash algorithm of miner is the same as starcoin 1.0, and it also supports the same stratum protocol.

It's a bug for creating a system directory on windows, we will fix it on next version, please try starcoin on macos or linux currently.

Try setting miner threads by adding --miner-thread 10 after starcoin command

buchii9 Dec 8, 2023

when loading main console?
so for instance, do you mean ./starcoin -n main console --miner-thread 10
Or ./starcoin_miner --miner-thread 10

sanlee42 Dec 8, 2023
Maintainer Author

Trying starcoin daemon: ./starcoin -n main --miner-thread 10 console

buchii9 Dec 8, 2023

loads up into console but no mining output, htop indicates cpu not doing much

The node can start minting after synchronizing all blocks， please check the synchronization status.
