GPU? #87

Hi, Since this is a POS, why is there GPU mining and/or CPU mining? Is https://burstcoincalculator.com/ a good indicator for how much one is able to mine, since this is only based on how much space you put in?

It's POS, but the mining process involves a little hashing as well (a tiny amount compared to plotting). A GPU can help with that task.

I don't know the website, but it looks reasonable... baset target / network size is taken into account as well as current block reward.
