[nVidia] How to mine CrowdCroin (CRC) ?
What is CrowdCoin (CRC) ?

What you need to mine CrowdCoin on a mining pool ?
1. Wallets.
You'll need a wallet address to receive the CRC coins mined. It is better to either create a web wallet or download the wallet according to your Operating System.
Download the suitable version : https://github.com/crowdcoinChain/Crowdcoin
2. Miner Software.
2.1 For nVidia
For nVidia cards we recommand using CCminer.
You can download ccminer according to your Operating System:
CCminer 8.15 (KlausT) : https://github.com/KlausT/ccminer/releases
CCminer 2.2.3 (tpruvot) : https://github.com/tpruvot/ccminer/releases
2.2 For AMD
For AMD cards, you can download Gateless Gate according to your Operating System:
Gateless Gate: https://github.com/zawawawa/gatelessgate/releases/
Only windows binaries are provided, you can download the source code and compile it if your OS is not Windows.
Here are some examples of other miners that should work:
NSGminer : https://github.com/ghostlander/nsgminer/releases
SGminer : https://github.com/tpruvot/sgminer/releases
Remark: some anti-virus and anti-malware may detect the miner as a virus. It is due to the fact that miners were integrated in malwares and virusses so some anti-virus detect the miner as a potentially dangerous component. We use these binaries since years: we've never encounter problems because we avoid to download any binaries and always use the offial binary release on bitcointalk or github.
3. Miner Configuration.
3.1 CCMiner
Unimining Dedicated 4238 port for mining CRC Only.
Create a launch file (*.bat file on windows) and past this configuration :
-a neoscrypt : set the algorithm
-o stratum+tcp://pool.unimining.net:4238 : set the mining pool URL and stratum port (4234 for neoscryt stratum dedicated to TZC)
-u Your_CRC_Wallet : wallet address used as username. Please remove this example address and write your own address created at step 1
-p c=CRC : optional (password) parameters. -p is used to give the password related to the username. As mining is anonymous, the password is used to pass optional arguments. c=CRC is used to force YiiMP to mine CRC (CRC is the symbol defined on the pool for Crowdcoin) : YiiMP should detect the crypto-currency mined according to the wallet address but as coins are forks of other coins (and some don't adapt address' code), it doesn't always work as expected. So we recommand to always set the coin with at least the optional parameter c (ex: c=CRC).. stats is used to perform a benchmark of your GPU (first GPU on multi-GPU) on the 50st share. To add several parameter, seperate them by commas, e.g. -p c=CRC,stats to set the coin as Alqo and perform benchmark
--cpu-priority=3 : parameter used to set the cpu priority.
3.2 Gateless
3.2.1 Create a new launch file ("mine CRC on unimining.bat" using notepad or notepad++ under windows) and paste the following command into it:
"algorithm": "neoscrypt" : set the algorithm
"quota": "99;stratum+tcp://pool.unimining.net:4238" : set the mining pool URL and stratum port (4238 for neoscrypt algo dedicated to CRC)
"user": "Your_CRC_Wallet" : wallet address used as username. Please remove this example address and write your own address created at step 1
"pass": "c=CRC" : optional (password) parameters. -p is used to give the password related to the username. As mining is anonymous, the password is used to pass optional arguments. c=CRC is used to force YiiMP to mine CRC (CRC is the symbol defined on the pool for CrowdCoin) : YiiMP should detect the crypto-currency mined according to the wallet address but as coins are forks of other coins (and some don't adapt address' code), it doesn't always work as expected. So we recommand to always set the coin with at least the optional parameter c (ex: c=CRC).. stats is used to perform a benchmark of your GPU (first GPU on multi-GPU) on the 50st share. To add several parameter, seperate them by commas, e.g. -p c=CRC,stats to set the coin as CRC and perform benchmark (remark: stats should work with yiimp but I didn't test it with Gatelessgate).
Remark: Both files should be inside the directory of Gatelessgate.
Have a nice mining.
Official BitCoinTalks ANN : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2348866.0CRC is the currency that will serve the community and the platform that will be built during the second phase after the coin will become stable enough to allow the merchants to feel safe using it. To improve the stability of the net and the stability of the coin price we have decided to use the masternodes.
The CrowdCoin development team is not fixed and is continuously expanding with the community and for the community allowing the people to decide which feature is the most needed and make a wise use of bounties to build the fantastic coin that will be designed with and for the uses.
