Farming BPX on Windows

  1. To start farming you need a working and synchronized full node. If you don't already have it, follow all the steps of this tutorial first, but in the step from screenshot below, choose Farming Mode instead. Then go to the Step 4.

3. Wait for the additional processes needed for farming to start. You need to confirm opening the port on the Windows firewall, just like during the installation.
