Simple question about DCR

[Committing]

I can see I am getting ETH fine.

I can also see I am getting DCR. What is DCR?

Where is it stored or how do I store it in a wallet?

My current command:

EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eth-eu1.nanopool.org:9999 -ewal MYPUBLICKEY/MYUSERNAME/MYEMAIL@EMAIL.COM -epsw x

Thanks

DCR is another crypto that it can mine in parallel with ETH. Google Decred to learn more about it. If you only want to mine ETH you will want to add "-mode 1" to your command to enable it in single mining mode. I recommend using the built in scripts included to figure out what you need. You can create a decred wallet online and mine to a pool.

I personally don't see a reason not to dual mine, it barely hurts your ETH hashrate and you can just trade those coins for more ETH on an exchange if you want.

Thanks for the quick response. I would like to mine DCR in that case.

Do I need to use a different pool that accepts both ETH and DCR? (Currently using nanopool.org)

Or can I pass a parameter to mine DCR to another pool or wallet?

And what is happening with the DCR I am mining at the moment? Cheeers!

Ok got it.

Need to use these params:

-dpool http://dcr.maxminers.net:7728
-dwal USER.WORKER
-dpsw WORKERPASS

Hi folks, does anybody know which wallet is used when miner is executing without DCR wallet params?

[CasaSky]

@zharinov I guess you need always to specify DCR wallet params because that is the only way to get paid by the pool. See the example above!

So how does the mined Decred get to the miner? I am just confused on that because with ethereum you put your ethereum address in but I am not seeing where you put your Decred address.

I believe you should be passing a -dwal param. Just like the -ewal param you should add to your command something like this: -dpool dcr.suprnova.cc:3252 -dwal <YOUR WALLET ADDR>.1 -dpsw x -allpools 1
