• Built for nVidia with CUDA 7.5, 32bits version (anyway faster than 64bits version)
• New optimized code with special portions. Effective hashrate is higher, without power overkill.
• Up to 16 GPUs can be used.
• Supports Stratum versions
• Shows detailed mining information and hashrate for each card.

• Supplied batch file allows easier choice for mining.
• You may create configuration files with pools, one file for each coin. Much simple to manage.
• Up to 16 pools in each configuration file.
• Automatic watchdog, auto-terminate if too many errors occurs (--max-rejects, default=7)
• Inactivity watchdog, auto-terminate if program stucks more than 120s.
• Automatic failover to next pool if current doesn't work.
• Miner can be restarted if too many blocks pass without submission (-M, --max-blocks-null)
• Special parameters can be used in the configuration file / pools zone (%WORKER%, %DIFF%)

• Unzip downloaded file into desired folder
• Update cryptogen.*.conf files with your own information (pools, wallet addresses, etc)
• Feel free to add new pools in .conf files
• Feel free to add new conf files for your preferred coins.
• Update file CRYPTOGEN-MINE.bat to choose coin to mine.
• Execute (double-click) CRYPTOGEN-MINE.bat

• Some improvements on x17 algo
• Fixed bug on reported pool hashrate

• Improvement on stratum disconnect management
• Reinforcement of pool switching processing
• Some optimizations for best hashrates

• Fine tuning of intensity : for example, an intensity of 19 or 19.5 if fine for 1080 Ti
• Difficulty : best way is to run with automatic diff from pool, then after stabilization, examine choosen diff from pool and force it in pool parameters
