- special ASICs or GPUs are not required (the algorithm was

+ <p>With the scripts provided on this site you can mine with the <strong>cryptonightV7-algorithm</strong>.
+ The cryptocurrency <a href="https://getmonero.org/">Monero</a> is
+ based on this algorithm, and it was forked beginning of 2018 from the
+ standard cryptonight-algorithm. This site focuses only on the
+ V7-variant of the algorithm because recently a ASIC for
+ standard-cryptonight was released which will soon push all CPU- and
+ GPU-miners out of this market (the purpose of the fork was to avoid
+ exactly this fate for Monero). </p>

<strong>The alternative is to mine to a pool run by Nicehash.com</strong>
(i recommend mining with Nicehash only if you have MSDN Enterprise).
With <a href="https://www.nicehash.com/">Nicehash.com</a> you are
- basically always mining the most profitable altcoin and you get paid in
- bitcoin (read their <a href="https://www.nicehash.com/help/how-does-nicehash-work">documentation</a>
+ selling your hashing-power and you get paid in bitcoin (read their <a href="https://www.nicehash.com/help/how-does-nicehash-work">documentation</a>
to learn how it works internally). If you are using Nicehash.com you'll
get a special internal wallet, which you can only use with Nicehash.com
pools. You can sign up for a free account at <a href="https://www.nicehash.com/register">Nicehash.com/register</a>.
+ Note that you'll have to use a nicehash-server supporting cryptonightv7
+ like e.g. <strong>cryptonightv7.usa.nicehash.com:3363</strong>.<br>
<p>It's good practice to setup a secondary pool, in case the primary
pool is offline. Personally i use Nicehash as a primary mining-pool
and the Monero mining-pool <a href="https://web.xmrpool.eu/">xmrpool.eu</a>
as a secondary mining-pool. </p>

- (app. yield: 700H/s; the number of cores you can use depends on your
- MSDN-subscription) in the azure cloud. In my experience Nicehash
- always had the best or second-best profitability → look at the
- "Nicehash-CryptoNight"-entry. It might not sound like much at first,
- but once you set it up it's free money :-)</p>
<p>Note: Cryptocurrencies are notorious for being targets of spectacular
hacks - even Nicehash.com was hacked once. <strong>The more
cryptocurrency you accumulate, the more important it is to educate
