Pickaxe Miner v0.0.3

Mine PHOTON CashTokens on Bitcoin Cash with any GPU: NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, integrated GPUs, Apple Silicon, or in your browser.

Highlights

• Every GPU in one miner: all graphics cards of a machine mine one job together, so they never compete. Add integrated GPUs with --include-integrated, or pick GPUs with --device 0,2 (numbers from pickaxe devices).
• Native engines: CUDA for NVIDIA RTX 50 series, HIP T2 for AMD Radeon RX 6000, 7000 and 9000.
• Portable engine for every other GPU: AMD and Intel GPUs, integrated GPUs and older NVIDIA cards mine through Vulkan, with optional DirectX 12 on Windows and Metal on Apple Silicon.
• Browser miner: the same engine in your browser on WebGPU.
• Terminal dashboard: guided setup, saved profiles, per-GPU rates and win odds.
• 4% mining-work donation: every win pays your wallet directly.
