+# Official ElaptaCoin PoS Farmer
+Welcome to the official page of ElaptaCoin Proof of Space Farmer!
+
+**Farming utilizes data drives, proving you have certain file. This does not require much power.**
+
+#### Platform support
+1. Windows 10/11 (Theoretically Windows 7)
+2. Linux x32/x64
+3. ARM x64/x32 (Including Android devices with Termux installed)
+
+
+**DISCLAIMER: There are few instability issues ongoing with the PoS Farmer currently!**
+
+# ElaptaCoin PoW Miner Setup Guide
+## Windows and Linux (Packed Executable)
+### 1. Download .zip folder for your targeted platform (Linux/Windows) 
+You can find the latest release on https://github.com/DuckyPolice/Elaptacoin-PUBLIC/releases/latest
+![alt text](images/image-2.png)
+
+### 2. Unzip the zip folder.
+
+### 3. Execute the farmer
+Open the farmer, the name of the farmer is `farmer.{deb or exe}`
+
+### 4. Configure the farmer
+Close the farmer
+
+Open the file `config.json` that was created in the folder where is the farmer
+
+The inside of `config.json` should look like this:
+
+```
+{
+    "plot_directories": [
+        "D:\\",
+        "C:\\Users\\tomma\\Desktop\\elapFarm-1.2.1-windows\\_internal"
+    ],
+    "username": "jerrbar",
+    "server_ip": "147.185.221.21:20234"
+}
+```
+
+Replace `username` with username of your Elaptacoin account
+###### Don't have account yet? Follow the guide on [read me page](README.md)
+
+Replace the first entry `D:\\` with existing directory where you want to have your plots
+
+If you want to use linux, you need to use file format. `/home` etc...
+
+###### For example, I am going replace the `D:\\` with `C:\\myfolder`
+
+Save the file.
+
+### 5. Generate the plots
+The plots are needed for farming, so you want to generate them
+
+You can create up to 32 plots, each one is 3,8 GB in size. For bigger succes in farming. You want to have all 32 plots. But watch out for your drive size!
+
+So to generate plots, you want to open the farmer again
+
+Then enter `plot` and type number `0` to `32`
+###### We recommend to generating plots in order to don't cause chaos in plots
+
+### 6. Start mining
+Enter `farm` and start mining!
+
+**There is issue with instability, often the miner can restart itself, to interrupt the restarting process, just press any key.**
+
+## ARM Based Devices
+### 1. Download .zip folder with the source code 
+
+Make sure you are in `/home/yourusername` directory
+
+Copy the link of the `Source code.zip` https://github.com/DuckyPolice/Elaptacoin-PUBLIC/releases/latest
