Cryptonote is easy to use just like microsoft paint
once downloaded extract to any location. open folder find file called wallet.address.txt open it and paste ur bytecoin address.
then open CryptoNoteMiner.exe and put host pool as '' Bytecoin.UK '' and pick pool host: Easy 3333 press start mining make sure to pick CPU CORES I use 3 somtimes 4.
