1. Join Amazon EC2. They offer free tier for new users for 12 months:



Quote As part of AWSs Free Usage Tier, new AWS customers can get started with Amazon EC2 for free. Upon sign-up, new AWS customers receive the following EC2 services each month for one year:



750 hours of EC2 running Linux/Unix Micro instance usage

750 hours of Elastic Load Balancing plus 15 GB data processing

10 GB of Amazon Elastic Block Storage (EBS) plus 1 million IOs and 1 GB snapshot storage

15 GB of bandwidth out aggregated across all AWS services

1 GB of Regional Data Transfer



So as a new user you will get 750 hours of EC2 running Linux/Unix Micro instance usage.

And what is a micro linux instance?



Quote Micro Instance 613 MB of memory, up to 2 ECUs (for short periodic bursts), EBS storage only, 32-bit or 64-bit platform

Not much, it will mine with 0.2 to 1.5 khash/sec. But you'll get it for free.



2. Launch a new micro linux instance, donwload and run cpuminer. Mine for free. This might be useful for step 2:



Code: sudo yum -y groupinstall "Development Tools"

sudo yum -y install git libcurl-devel python-devel screen rsync



git clone https://github.com/ArtForz/cpuminer.git

cd cpuminer

./autogen.sh

./configure

make -j

nohup ./minerd --algo scrypt -s 6 --threads 2 --url http://yourpool --userpass user:pass



Enjoy.

Micro instance has 1 core, or when i compiled, just 0.50kh/s. And i doubt that i can launch 30 or more FREE instances.



I've also tried the CLuster Computer Quadruple extra large which is an 8 core, 16 thread Intel Xeon which does 2.77(MAX) kh/s per core



So no, you do not get 1.5kh/s just 0.50



And if anyone wants, here is something i use to automatically download all dependencies plus the miner, download it, configure it, and compile it



Quote apt-get update;apt-get install -y libcurl4-openssl-dev;apt-get install -y git;apt-get install -y make;apt-get install -y autoconf;git clone https://github.com/Lolcust/Tenebrix-miner.git;mv Tenebrix-miner /opt/;cd /opt/Tenebrix-miner/;aclocal;./autogen.sh;CFLAGS="-O3 -Wall -g -ftree-loop-distribution -fstrict-aliasing -fstrict-overflow -march=native -mtune=native -msse2"

That is what i do when i first SSH to the new EC2 instance. It's fast, and you barely waste time.
