easyBTX comes to Windows.

This is the first Windows release. easyBTX now mines BTX on Windows PCs with an
NVIDIA RTX 30-series GPU or newer, using the same one-app, one-click,
self-custodial approach as the Mac version: bring an NVIDIA card, pick a payout
address, and your GPU joins the pool. There's no blockchain to download.

The Mac version (Apple Silicon, Metal, solo or pooled) is unchanged, and picks up
a couple of shared improvements.

Added

  • Windows support. Pool mining on NVIDIA GPUs (RTX 30-series or newer), with the
    CUDA solver bundled in the installer.
  • Your mined balance now shows in the app on Windows, read from the public block
    explorer (there's no local wallet on Windows).
  • A supported-hardware list in the info screen, so you can check whether your
    machine can mine, on both Mac and Windows.

Changed

  • The About screen is reorganised: your community and private mining stats sit at
    the top, with clean side-by-side Mac and Windows hardware cards below.

Downloads

  • macOS (Apple Silicon): easyBTX.dmg
  • Windows (NVIDIA, x64): easyBTX-x64-setup.exe. Unsigned, so Windows
    SmartScreen will warn the first time (click "More info" then "Run anyway").

Existing Mac installs update automatically.
