The ccMiner software miner for Nvidia GPUs has received another update of the source code this time adding support for the X11 algorithm for GPU mining crypto currencies such as DarkCoin. We have compiled a binary for Windows that you can find below and try on your Nvidia GPU. It seems that the performance that the current code for X11 offers on Nvidia hardware is pretty similar to what you can get on AMD. On a GeForce GTX 780 Ti we are getting hashrate of about 2.8 MHS when mining DarkCoin.
Do note that the windows binary you can download below is compiled for Computer 3.0, 3.5 and 5.0 cards (32-bit version only), so it will not work on older cards. It is also compiled with Visual Studio 2012, so if you do not already have Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2012 you will have to download and install it.

ParallaxCoin (PLX) Scrypt-N based cryptocoin
10 May2014
ParallaxCoin (PLX) is an Innovative coin. It is a Scrypt Adaptive-N factor coin that can be mined simultaneously with another NScrypt coin such as VertCoin for free (Merged Mining). Merged mining works by hashing the merged chain’s tx’s along with the other chain and submitting that to both chains. You’ll be able to mine PLX, and any other scrypt-n coin, at the same efficiency you would only mine the secondary coin. This new technology makes PLX the most secure NScrypt coin as Parallax has the potential to combine the hashrates of all NScrypt coins, thus resulting in more network hashrate and a higher level of security.
With the advent of Scrypt ASIC miners, Scrypt has become unprofitable for the average person with a GPU mining rig, resulting in most of the network hashrate being centered on big mining operations by private companies, resulting in Scrypt coins being less decentralized (Decentralization is the core of Bitcoin security). Scrypt Adaptive N-Factor is ASIC resistant, improving security.

Monocle (MON) Scrypt-N based cryptocoin
10 May2014
Monocle (MON) is the new merge-mined initiative from Vertcoin. If you are mining vertcoin now, you can mine monocle too with no extra effort. People mining monocle will automatically contribute to the hashing power of vertcoin.
