Start Mining QWR

1. Press ⌘ Command + Space to open Spotlight Search
2. Type Terminal and press Enter

A dark window with a blinking cursor appears — that's Terminal. You're ready.

Download the macOS version from the releases page:

Then paste these commands into Terminal one at a time, pressing Enter after each:

cd ~/Downloads

tar xzf qweercoin-v0.1.0-macos-arm64.tar.gz

sudo cp qwr-v0.1.0-macos/qweercoind qwr-v0.1.0-macos/qweercoin-cli /usr/local/bin/

Check the install worked:

qweercoind --version

This starts the Qweercoin software in the background:

qweercoind -daemon

You should see: Qweercoin Core starting

Wait 30 seconds, then check it's running:

qweercoin-cli getblockchaininfo

Before you can receive mining rewards, you need a wallet:

qweercoin-cli createwallet "main"

Now get an address where your rewards will be sent:

qweercoin-cli getnewaddress

Copy that address — it starts with qwr1. You'll need it in the next step.

Replace YOUR_ADDRESS_HERE with the address you just copied, then paste this entire block into Terminal:

ADDR="YOUR_ADDRESS_HERE"
while true; do
  BLOCKS=$(qweercoin-cli getblockchaininfo | python3 -c "import sys,json; print(json.load(sys.stdin)['blocks'])")
  echo "Mining... block: $BLOCKS"
  qweercoin-cli generatetoaddress 1 "$ADDR" > /dev/null
done

You'll see Mining... block: 248 repeating. Leave this running.

Open a new Terminal tab (⌘ Command + T) and run:

qweercoin-cli getbalance

It shows 0.00000000 at first — normal! Rewards appear after 100 more blocks are mined on top of yours.

Make Qweercoin start automatically whenever your Mac turns on. First, find your username:

whoami

Then paste the block below into Terminal, replacing YOUR_USERNAME with the result:

cat > ~/Library/LaunchAgents/org.qweercoin.node.plist <<'PLIST'

Download the Windows version from the releases page:

1. Right-click the downloaded .zip file and choose Extract All
2. When asked where to extract, type C:\Qweercoin and click Extract

Now add Qweercoin to your PATH so you can run it from anywhere. Paste this into PowerShell:

Close PowerShell and open it again (as Administrator). Then check the install worked:

qweercoind --version

Start the Qweercoin software in a hidden background window:

Start-Process qweercoind.exe -WindowStyle Hidden

Wait 30 seconds, then check it's running:

qweercoin-cli getblockchaininfo

Create a wallet to receive your mining rewards:

qweercoin-cli createwallet "main"

Now get an address where your rewards will be sent:

qweercoin-cli getnewaddress

Copy that address — it starts with qwr1. You'll need it next.

Replace YOUR_ADDRESS_HERE with the address you copied, then paste the whole block into PowerShell:

$ADDR = "YOUR_ADDRESS_HERE"
while ($true) {
  $blocks = (qweercoin-cli getblockchaininfo | ConvertFrom-Json).blocks
  Write-Host "Mining... block: $blocks"
  qweercoin-cli generatetoaddress 1 $ADDR | Out-Null
}

You'll see Mining... block: 248 repeating. Leave this window open.

Open a new PowerShell window and run:

qweercoin-cli getbalance

It shows 0.00000000 at first — normal! Rewards appear after 100 more blocks are mined on top of yours.

Make Qweercoin start automatically when you log into Windows:

1. Press Windows key + R, type shell:startup, and press Enter — a folder opens
2. Right-click inside that folder → New → Shortcut
3. For the location, type: C:\Qweercoin\qweercoind.exe
4. Click Next, name it Qweercoin, click Finish

Press Ctrl + Alt + T, or search for Terminal in your applications menu.

mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/user
cat > ~/.config/systemd/user/qweercoin.service <<'SERVICE'
[Unit]
Description=Qweercoin Node
After=network.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/qweercoind

systemctl --user enable qweercoin
systemctl --user start qweercoin

Check it: systemctl --user status qweercoin
