This was a good introduction course. Wasn't aware I would have to buy a USB miner for the Raspberry Pi.

The course was short and simple, and the trainer was able
to explain the process with example video. I will recommend this course.

Guter Kurs, einfach nachzuvollziehen. Habe das Ganze mit Orange Pi gemacht.
Was noch fehlt ist am Schluss ein Beispiel, woran man erkennen kann, dass der Miner auch tatschlich mined. Ich erhalte zwar auch die gezeigten Messages, doch kann ich nirgends sehen dass irgendwas hochgezhlt wird. Entweder habe ich noch was falsch parametriert, oder es dauert ewig. Aber vielleicht liegts ja auch daran dass ich keinen ASIC Miner verwende? Ich dachte immer es geht auch ohne einen solchen ASIC Miner. Bei Minergate geht's ja auch ohne zustzlichen Hardware Miner.
