You better eat that donut! 

You can GPU mine with xmr-stak-nvidia or amd by fireice-uk on github. Not sure if I'm allowed to link github, but I'll make a mini tutorial on how to GPU mine bitcoal on this thread if needed. I don't know much about the Nvidia miner, but for AMD users download the 1.1.0-1.4.0 file on that persons github, extract the folder anywhere on your computer, open the config, and you'll see this at the very top of the config;

/*
 * Number of GPUs that you have in your system. Each GPU will get its own CPU thread.
 */
"gpu_thread_num" : 6,

/*
 * GPU configuration. You should play around with intensity and worksize as the fastest settings will vary.
 *      index    - GPU index number usually starts from 0
 *  intensity    - Number of parallel GPU threads (nothing to do with CPU threads)
 *   worksize    - Number of local GPU threads (nothing to do with CPU threads)
 * affine_to_cpu - This will affine the thread to a CPU. This can make a GPU miner play along nicer with a CPU miner.
 */
"gpu_threads_conf" : [
   { "index" : 0, "intensity" : 1000, "worksize" : 8, "affine_to_cpu" : false },
   { "index" : 1, "intensity" : 1000, "worksize" : 8, "affine_to_cpu" : false },
   { "index" : 2, "intensity" : 1000, "worksize" : 8, "affine_to_cpu" : false },
   { "index" : 3, "intensity" : 1000, "worksize" : 8, "affine_to_cpu" : false },
   { "index" : 4, "intensity" : 1000, "worksize" : 8, "affine_to_cpu" : false },
   { "index" : 5, "intensity" : 1000, "worksize" : 8, "affine_to_cpu" : false },
],

Change the number in "gpu_thread_num" : 6, to the amount of GPUs you have and delete however many amount of the "index" lines in relation to the amount of GPUs you have. For example if you have 1 GPU it should look like this;

/*
 * Number of GPUs that you have in your system. Each GPU will get its own CPU thread.
 */
"gpu_thread_num" : 1,

/*
 * GPU configuration. You should play around with intensity and worksize as the fastest settings will vary.
 *      index    - GPU index number usually starts from 0
 *  intensity    - Number of parallel GPU threads (nothing to do with CPU threads)
 *   worksize    - Number of local GPU threads (nothing to do with CPU threads)
 * affine_to_cpu - This will affine the thread to a CPU. This can make a GPU miner play along nicer with a CPU miner.
 */
"gpu_threads_conf" : [
   { "index" : 0, "intensity" : 1000, "worksize" : 8, "affine_to_cpu" : false },
],

Now once you got your GPU count setup in the config file go to the following lines;

"pool_address" : "",
"wallet_address" : "",
"pool_password" : "",

Put the necessary info between the "" fields, launch the included exe and enjoy mining bitcoal with you GPU and you can also still mine via the wallet with your CPU. My hash rate with my GPU and CPU combined is about 700 hash and I'm using an RX 480 and a i7 4770. I've already been able to mine over 80 bitcoal in under 24 hours.

Testing.

PS: Pending Balance:    0.0145 COAL so far.. Minimum pay 0.5 coal.
PPS: 1.st December. Merry Christmas.
PPPS: Pending Balance:    0.0752 COAL and counting.
PPPPS: Hashrate is higher with GPU miner \NVIDIA-TPruvot than the walletminer. GPU gives me 435 h/s. GTX980. Can run both cpu and gpu mining on same pc.
PPPPPS. CPU. Running only 2 of 8 core gives most bang for the buck. 100 h/s 2 core. 137 h/s on 3 cores..
I have bought a small stash of bitcoal while it is still cheap.

Bong. Pending Balance:    0.4367 COAL. Beeker from the muppets singing feelings in the background.

Expect approx. 500 h/s from an older gaming PC. CPU+GPU.

Success.  0.5 coal sent to my wallet. It works. At least for the first payment. I will go for some more payments. Just wallet mining. No GPU.
Wang. Second payment. 0.9 Coal. When it's running it pays really well. Perhaps it will be the new bitcoin.. A secret one.

Can anybody tell me, Is something wrong with the mining pools payment or with the wallets?
I can see the balance in mining pools, but not in the wallet....
Plz help me.

Plus new developers took over the project.

New wallet look so nice, you can mine directly from the wallet.

The price is very cheap for CryptoNote coin with only 12 million max supply.
I don't mind holding this coin for 1 -2 years to sell at the moon  

I've done some research on this coin.
If this coin's statistics are correct:
1)its purpose is for ordinary people to mine, I like the fairer idea
2) anonymous coin
3) coin supply 4,500,000
4) MAX coin supply 12,500,000
5) low price of about $0.02 cents right now
I am in. I will be keeping track of this coin. This coin has great potential.

Not sure if that's correct. I have found a video on YT, where is described how to mine with GPU.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=31zDrCbCPVM

Think it's only a CPU coin. Just install the wallet and hit start mining. Took me about 30 mins to get my 1st payout 0.5 COAL

do you have telegram group or discord for discussion?

i am gpu miner ,how to mining this coin ,i cann't find algo on OP ,any profit now?

Great coin! I've gotten some. Interesting to see where this will go.

Will a wallet appear for the 32-bit version?

Good coin. It will be go to 1500 sat. Cap and Handle is coming.   

Hey .. looks like the payment process from the pool has a problem. Do others also observe it ..? 

Apparently new developers took over the project.

They released GUI wallet and new website upon announcement of taking over bitcoal project as developers.

Look at how many cryptonote coins have GUI wallet and how much time it takes them to create one, these new devs released it on the same day they announced they are new devs, this tells me they are serious about the project.

You can see their announcement on page 22 or here is the quote:

It's written on cryptopia ..don't use cryptopia wallet adress for mining

Why pump?

600%, I can't believe my eyes 

Do not mine to an exchange address, they require a payment id and you will lose your coins.

what happens when we mine to the cryptopia wallet? the coins wont just dissapear right?

Pumping?!?!
