New/Forked Algo Support - CN-FEST #161

Closed ThrownLemon closed 6 years ago

ThrownLemon commented 6 years ago

Hi There,

FestivalCoin forked from CNv7 to to their own custom variant recently and was hoping you could add support?

If you need anymore info please let me know.

Cheers!

Looks like it should be already supported as cryptonight variant rto.

All 3 coins somehow related to each other, same changes in algorithm, same readme, same method of bad forking, I not to much dig into it, but feel strong deja vu.

First Bittube algorithm was named cryptonight-lite variant ipbc and now removed, but only difference betwen IPBC and ARTO/FEST was a scratchpad size, other single algorithm change is equal.

Thanks mate, I'll play around with RYO variant.

You can close this off for now and I'll reopen if required.

RTO != RYO, RYO is cryptonight-heavy variant 0.

:P Good catch, I would have failed hard.
