There are two ways to mine XSC, namely via the solo miner packaged in the main release or by usign XMR-Stak which is highly recommended.

Method 1: Solomining

To solomine, type this command , changing the parameters as needed:

/path/to/v0.SomeVersion-youros.zip/miner --address <address> //change address to your own address
