Cryptonight Miner

About

Note: This is no longer functional for Monero since the release cryptonight_v8

One of the first completely free alternatives to coin-hive as a CryptoNight miner built with js and WebAssembly.

kNight can potentially replace the current Ad-based revenue model for sites.

Note: Currently uses 100% CPU, and does not terminate old jobs until they are done.

• 1MiB scratchpad memory
  • cryptonight_lite
  • cryptonight_lite_v7
• 2MiB scratchpad memory
