Installing Duino-Coin
The easiest way to get started with Duino-Coin is to download the latest release for your OS.
After downloading, unzip it and launch the desired program.
There are no dependencies required.
If you want to run the programs from source, you may need to install some dependencies. Here's how to do it on debian-based distros:
sudo apt install python3 python3-pip git
git clone https://github.com/revoxhere/duino-coin
cd duino-coin
python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txtIf you are on Windows, download Python 3, then our repository, extract it and open the folder in command prompt. In CMD, type:
py -m pip install -r requirements.txtAfter doing this, you are good to go with launching the software (e.g. python3 PC_Miner.py OR py PC_Miner.py).
You can also get the whole Duino-Coin bundle on the AUR - just install it with your favourite AUR Helper:
sudo pacman -S git
sudo git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/yay-git.git
cd yay-git
makepkg -si
yay -S duino-coinDuino-Coin AUR bundle is maintained by PhereloHD.

Some of the officially tested devices
- Arduino Pro Mini / Uno / Nano (ATmega328p @ 16 MHz 5V): ~170 H/s
- NodeMCU (ESP8266 @ 160 MHz): ~2.6 kH/s (~1.6 kH/s at 80 MHz clock)
- ESP32 (dual-threaded): ~13 kH/s (6 kH/s (core1) and 7 kH/s (core2)) (WIP)
Hashrate Calculators for AVR/ESP8266 platforms are available in the Useful tools branch.
License
Duino-Coin is mostly distributed under the MIT License. See LICENSE file for more information.
Some third-party included files may have different licenses - please check their LICENSE statements (usually at the top of the source code files).
Terms of usage
1. Duino-Coins are earned by miners with a process called mining.
2. Mining is described as using DUCO-S1 algorithm (explained in the Duino-Coin Whitepaper), in which finding a correct result to a mathematical problem gives the miner a reward.
3. Mining can be officially done using CPUs, AVR boards (e.g. Arduino boards), Single-board computers (e.g. Raspberry Pi boards), ESP32/8266 boards with the usage of official miners (other officially allowed miners are described in the upper part of README).
4. Mining on GPUs, FPGAs and other high-efficiency hardware is allowed, but using only the `EXTREME` mining difficulty.
5. Any users using miners on difficulty not suited for their hardware (see the difficulty list) will be automatically throttled and/or blocked. 6. Any users spotted using inappropriate and/or overpowered hardware will be banned manually or automatically from the network withour prior notice.
7. Banning involves blocking the user from accessing his coins along with the removal of an account.
8. Only coins earned legally are eligible for the exchange.
9. These terms of usage can change at any time without prior notice.
10. Every user using Duino-Coin agrees to comply with the above rules.
11. This list will be expanded in the future.
Privacy policy
1. On the master server we only store usernames, hashed passwords (with the help of bcrypt) and e-mails of users as their account data.
2. E-mails are not publicly available and are only used for contacting user when needed, confirming exchanges on the DUCO-Exchange and receiving an occasional newsletter (planned for the future).
3. Balances, transactions and mining-related data is publicly available in the public JSON APIs.
4. The privacy policy may be changed in the future with a prior notification.
