CPU‑only or not: CPU‑only (GPU is slower than CPU; ASIC mining is impossible)
Brief description: The project positions itself as a cryptocurrency created “for the CPU and by the CPU”. The coin has no ICO and no premine, with a maximum emission of 80 000 000 YTN.
Where to mine/pool: Pools LycheeBit and cpu-pool.com are mentioned.
Community reaction: The community actively discusses technical details (compiling on Linux, using a GUI miner for beginners) and notes exchange listings. A migration to a new wallet branch for hack protection is also mentioned.
