How to Solo Mine MAX in the CloudsAfter you have now successfully set up maxcoin cpuminer for Pool mining, you might be interested in how to solo mine should the pools have issues after launch. Here you go:
cd ~
wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/q7b0ok2nlolhhsf/maxcoind
chmod +x maxcoind
export LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
mkdir -p .maxcoin
14.
sudo nano .maxcoin/maxcoin.conf
insert:
addnode=maxcoin.cloudapp.net
addnode=maxcoinus.cloudapp.net
addnode=maxcoinasia.cloudapp.net
addnode=maxexplorer.cloudapp.net
addnode=213.179.202.19
server=1
rpcuser=yourmaxcoinrpc
rpcpassword=yoursupersecurepassword
gen=1
CTRL+O to save, CTRL+X to quit
cd ~ && ./maxcoind --daemon && watch './maxcoind getinfo && ./maxcoind getmininginfo && ./maxcoind listaccounts'
--> Mining operations started. You will find your wallet.dat file in ~/.maxcoin
Alternatively, you may use the command
./maxcoind sendtoaddress maxcoinaddress amount
to send funds to another wallet.
IF you want to switch back to your cpuminer operations path:
cd ~/cpuminer
OR if you used the earlier guide
cd ~/maxcoin-cpuminer
Problem is we CAN'T unzip Mxcoin (unzip Maxcoin-linux64.zip -P Z3l0NEXbv12eycRtCcPY) it gives this error:

a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the
latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
the last disk(s) of this archive.
unzip: cannot find zipfile directory in one of Maxcoin-linux64.zip or
Maxcoin-linux64.zip.zip, and cannot find Maxcoin-linux64.zip.ZIP, period.
