Eddycoin miners for Windows - Eddycoin mainnet (eddycoin-mainnet-1)
===================================================================
Contents: Eddycoin CPU Miner.exe (E-Chain, processor, with the puzzle animation), Start mining (CPU + GPU).cmd,
eddycoin_chain.json (mainnet switch - keep it next to the exes), eddycoin_miner_defaults.json, INSTALL_WINDOWS.txt.
The GPU miner is a separate download ("Eddycoin Mainnet GPU Miner (Windows).zip") - unzip it into THIS folder.

Quick start
  1. Unzip to a folder, e.g. C:\Eddycoin Miners (and the GPU miner zip into the same folder).
  2. Open "Eddycoin CPU Miner.exe", paste your wallet address (eddy1...), press START.
  3. Graphics card: open "Eddycoin GPU Miner.exe", same address, START.
     Later "Start mining (CPU + GPU).cmd" starts both.
  SmartScreen: the programs are not code-signed -> "More info" -> "Run anyway".

Defaults ("half" mode): CPU = half of the logical cores at 100 %, GPU = 50 % intensity.
"Start mining automatically when opened" is ON - untick it in the miner window to switch it off.

Pool (default): https://pool.129-159-188-73.sslip.io  - fee 2 %, payout to your address from 1 EDDY
(after 6 checkpoints), stats: https://pool.129-159-188-73.sslip.io/pool
Solo: add the node https://129-159-188-73.sslip.io (or your own node) in the miner's Server list.

Failover: if the server in use is unreachable for 60 s, the miner switches to the next one in its list:
pool -> node https://129-159-188-73.sslip.io -> an Eddycoin Node on this PC (http://127.0.0.1:8773).
More nodes: add them in the Server list, or as "servers": [...] in eddycoin_chain.json. Default node port: 8773.

A checkpoint (and its reward) needs one CPU block AND one GPU block. The CPU miner may show
"waiting for a D-Chain (GPU) block" while nobody mines with a graphics card - that is normal.
The miners only mine on eddycoin-mainnet-1 and refuse old test-network addresses.
