      Here’s a guide I made for mining MaxCoin …

      [list type=decimal]
      [*]Create a folder called C:\Maxcoin
      [*]Download [url=https://github.com/Max-Coin/clients/blob/master/Maxcoin-win32/maxcoind.exe]this file[/url] into C:\Maxcoin
      [*]Run maxcoind.exe for a few seconds (type â€Å"maxcoind”).
      [*]Close the command prompt window and shut it down.
      [*]Go to the proper folder listed [url=https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/11190/where-is-the-config-file-of-bitcoin-qt-kept?answertab=votes#tab-top]here[/url].
      [*]Create a text file called maxcoin.conf in the folder in Step 5.
      [*] Paste the contents [url=http://pastie.org/8706318]here[/url] into maxcoin.conf and save.
      [*]Open a command prompt window and change directories to C:\Maxcoin.
      [*]Type … [b]maxcoind --daemon[/b]
      [/list]

      You are now mining Maxcoin! You will just see a black window.

      To verify you are mining open another command prompt window, change to the Maxcoin directory and type … [b]maxcoind getmininginfo[/b].

      You should see [b]â€Å"hashespersec” : xxxxxxxx[/b], as long as there is a # where I have x’s you are mining.

      Other commands …

      maxcoind getinfo
      maxcoind getbalance
      maxcoind setgenerate true # (where # = # of CPU threads you want to use).

        [quote]Q: So is it CPU only? Will I be able to use my Butterfly Labs ASIC when it arrives (… any day now…)?
        A: Using Keccak as a hashing function renders current Bitcoin ASICs and the upcoming Scrypt ASICs useless on the coin. GPU parallelization of Keccak is possible but currently does not exist for mining with our implementation of SHA-3. [/quote]

        :D

            If this is true http://www.reddit.com/r/maxcoinproject/comments/1x7l7x/epic_fail/ then def. this gpu miners are real.
            There is some work here https://github.com/smolen/cgminer so maybe isn’t that hard to implement keccak for gpu…
