Nevermore miner

Quoth the Raven(coin), "Nevermore."

An optimized fork of ccminer developed specially for x16r.

Based on Christian Buchner's & Christian H.'s CUDA project, no longer active on github since 2014.

A part of the recent algos were originally written by djm34 and alexis78

This variant was tested and built on Linux (ubuntu server 14.04, 16.04, Fedora 22 to 25) It is also built for Windows 7 to 10 with VStudio 2013, to stay compatible with Windows 7 and Vista.

Note that the x86 releases are generally faster than x64 ones on Windows, but that tend to change with the recent drivers.

The recommended CUDA Toolkit version was the 6.5.19, but some light algos could be faster with the version 7.5 and 8.0 (like lbry, decred and skein).

About source code dependencies

This project requires some libraries to be built :

The tree now contains recent prebuilt openssl and curl .lib for both x86 and x64 platforms (windows).

To rebuild them, you need to clone this repository and its submodules : git clone https://github.com/peters/curl-for-windows.git compat/curl-for-windows

Compile on Linux
