Do you guys know how to decide how many threads to solo mine? I see its default is 99 threads. I have a Threadripper CPU and am unsure how many threads it can handle, thought only 8 or 16.

You'd be wasting electricity trying to mine this coin with a CPU. Current difficulty is about 6. I would only consider CPU mining if it was more like 0.001, and even then it would be very inefficient. This coin is barely profitable (maybe even a paper loss) when mining with dedicated ASIC equipment.

FWIW, process threads (which is the 99 count above) are not directly related to CPU threads. Process threads are multiple parts of a single application. CPU threads are more like virtual cores that multiple processes (and their process threads) are spread over. So you can have more threads per process than exist CPU threads.
