Hashbtc.jpgThis page is a stub. Help by expanding it.cpu-miner is a Bitcoin miner created by jgarzik. It mines through a proprietary JSON-RPC pooled mining protocol, and supports several algorithms for doing encryption required to build a block.

Algorithms

  • c: Linux kernel (but not restricted to Linux) implementation of SHA256.
  • 4way: 128-bit SSE2 optimizations which are already available as a compile-time option on the classic Bitcoin client.
  • padlock: Implementation of the Padlock encryption optimizations on VIA CPUs.
  • cryptopp: (Experimental) algorithm which uses the Crypto++ library.
