How to get RODs

Walter Philips edited this page May 11, 2023 · 6 revisions

There are several ways to obtain ROD coins, depending on your preferences and goals. Some of the most common methods are:

I. Mining

  • You can mine them SOLO against the SpaceXpanse ROD wallet

You can mine ROD solo with the following miners:
NVIDIA Win64 Miner
You just have to follow the instructions in Readme1st.txt: just add your ROD address to the corresponding .bat file and then start it.

P.S. In the beginning¹ it was possible to mine them with CPU by using generatetoaddress 100 YOURRODADDRESS 1000000000 in the wallet's console, where 100 is the number of blocks to be generated and 1000000000 is the number of iterations. It's only possible to find a block that way if you have a really powerful CPU and, preferably, untethered source of electricity. You can also change the algo by adding sha256d at the end of it but now it's virtually impossible to find block that way¹.

  • You can mine them at POOL through well known mining software You can mine ROD at pools with the following miners:
    NVIDIA Win64 Miner
    AMD Win64 and Linux64 Miner
    You just have to follow the instructions in Readme1st.txt: just add your ROD address to the corresponding .bat file and then start it.

  • You can mine them at POOL as secondary coin while mining other coins (merged mining) with dedicated hardware (ASICs)
    It's an advanced method and requires specific hardware, so if you don't know how to do it, better stick to the others.

To find available pools, follow this link.

II. Buying

  • Buy ROD coins directly from a cryptocurrency exchange
    You will need to create an account, maybe verify your identity, and fund your account with fiat currency or another crypto coin. Then you can choose how much ROD coins you want to buy and place an order.

To find available crypto exchanges, follow this link.

III. Get them for FREE

  • Using a crypto faucet that rewards you with small amounts of crypto coins for completing tasks, such as watching ads, playing games, or filling out surveys. You will need to have a crypto wallet address to receive the coins. You will also need to be patient, as faucets usually pay very little and have withdrawal limits.

IV. Using liquidity pools and/or atomic swaps

  • Liquidity Pools work similar to how pools work on DEX platforms such as Pancakeswap and Uniswap.
    Users who add liquidity to a pool are called 'liquidity providers' and they must provide liquidity in both assets. Liquidity providers earn a portion of any trade fees collected from trades in the pool. If a liquidity provider is providing 50% of the liquidity in the pool, then they will earn 50% of the trade fees collected on every trade in the pool. You may remove your liquidity at any time. The prices paid by traders in a pool are based solely upon the liquidity in the pool. This is commonly referred to as 'Automated Market Making'.

For now you can do this at Xeggex liquidity pools and their swap function when become available again.


¹Until difficulty risen enough to be almost impossible to find a block that way.
