FYI you cannot compile this wallet on a machine that does not have the AES instruction set available (of which most virtual machines don't)
Likely it means that to GPU mine it, it will need the equivalent to the AES instructions, so it seems that GPU might not get much of an advantage over CPU.

It seems we have a brand new CPU hashing and it has been quite effective so far


Don't worry, I managed to get it to compile properly.

However, it is just regular komodo with some extra hash functions built into it. The wallet executable is even called komodod and the default coin is KMD, and it also has a bunch of asset chains for KMD in there as well, all of which work as normal.

The compiled wallet in the OP seems like an Agama wallet with the asset chain parameters built in, however the VerusCoin wallet from the github source does not have any of these parameters (other than a few 'test' bits for VRSC and VERUSTEST). Is this coin a Komodo asset chain using a different algorithm? If so, how can one use the Komodo wallet to mine if the chain parameters aren't included?
yes it is an enhanced assetchain
