Unlike many coins, we spend a lot of time on writing high-quality and easy to follow tech tutorials to simplify explaining things most coins don't bother explaining....


Q1: Why do you use the proprietary YAM miner in your tut? According to Atithasos it takes 2.5% of the proceeds. Atithasos says the lucas jones (wolf miner) can also be used, but it's a GPU miner not a CPU miner. .....

Good point. Thank you.

On our mining tut:
https://bipcoin.org/?p=1162

It did already say "We’re only going to cover one miner, YAM. But YAM is easy to use, and efficient. I’m only going to show the basics of YAM. But once you’ve run it, tweaking it for optimization, or running any other miners will be easy."

It now says:

"YAM does use 2.5% of your mining power for the creator of the program to mine XMR. But also, that's more than made up for using out "Run As Administrator" step, which gives you 10% - 50% more hashing power.
