Novocoin a lightweight CryptoNote digital currency.

Each transaction is secured with robust cryptography and distributed through a global peer-to-peer consensus network.

Novocoin utilizes a cryptographic system to transfer funds without the identifying information of each user becoming visible on the blockchain. Also Novocoin is an open-sourced decentralized cryptocurrency with untraceable payments

Novocoin make transactions untraceable, meaning it is very difficult for blockchain analysis to determine if funds have been spent

You can mine with your Home PC easily

Can be mined with recent phone

Novocoin is a proof-of-work algorithm that mixes graphics processing unit (GPU) and central processing unit (CPU) mining to create a system resistant to both application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) and fast memory-on-chip devices.

With Novocoin syncing with the bloackchain are fast

1.Compile from source code.
2.Launch novocoind and wait until it is synchronized.
3.Launch simplewallet --generate-new-wallet=wallet_name.bin --pass=12345
4.Start mining from the wallet using start_mining command

First of all let's get all the tools we need :
- Download and install Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2013 (It's a free version of visual studio with some license limitations).
  You can uncheck the web development tools and SQL tools.
  This will take time to download and install and you will have to reboot upon completion.
- Download and install cMake for windows from : http://www.cmake.org/download/ (Win32 install)
- Download Boost 1.57 from http://www.boost.org/users/download/ , use the zip or 7zip archive and extract.
  You can use c:\boost_1_57_0 since this is what I am using for this steps.
- Download and install Github for Windows from https://windows.github.com/ (This also includes a Git shell that we will use later).

Compile & build
Build Boost :
  Open a command line and type :


Open the Git Shell (or Git bash) depending what you downloaded previously and do.

then build
You should now find the exe files under build/src/debug .
