Farming BPX on Windows

1. To start farming BPX, you need a fully synchronized full node. If you don’t have one, follow all the steps of this tutorial, but in the step shown in the screenshot below, choose the Farming Mode instead of Node Mode. Then, proceed directly to the Step 4.

2. If you already have a running full node, go to Settings and change the operating mode to Farming.

3. Wait for the additional processes required for farming to start. Allow the Windows Firewall to open the required port, just like during the client installation.
