+title: How do I mine LBRY credits?
+---
+
+LBRY binaries are out for OS X and Ubuntu. Others may try compiling from source. 
+
+## Mining on Ubuntu
+
+1. `wget https://s3.amazonaws.com/files.lbry.io/bins.zip`
+1. `unzip bins.zip`
+1. `./lbrycrdd -server -printtoconsole -gen`
+1. If you need to start over, run `rm -rf bins.zip lbry* ~/.lbry*`
+
+## Mining on macOS
+
+1. `wget https://s3.amazonaws.com/files.lbry.io/osxbins.zip``
+1. `unzip bins.zip`
+1. `./lbrycrdd -server -printtoconsole -gen`
+1. `mkdir ~/Library/Application\ Support/lbrycrd`
+1. `sudo chown -R your-username ~/Library/Application\ Support/lbrycrd`
+1. `nano ~/Library/Application\ Support/lbrycrd/lbrycrd.conf`
+1. Add:
+  `rpcuser=lbryrpc`
+   `rpcpassword=gibberish`
+1. If you need to start over, run `rm -rf bins.zip lbry* ~/.lbry ~/Library/Application\ Support/lbrycrd`
+1. Save 
+
+## Compiling
+
+LBRY can be compiled quite similarly to Bitcoin. Pester @jackrobison on Slack to fill this in!
