Mandatory Update

Stable release of Golang node daemon including KarlsenHashv2 (khashv2). The hardfork (HF) will happen at DAA score 26.962.009 around Fri Sep 13 01:37:00 PM UTC 2024. See here

DAG Generation

To start mining using the built-in CPU miner it needs a pre-generated DAG file. KarlsenHashv2 miner uses a 4GB DAG for efficient mining. It generates this DAG with 8 CPU threads and saves it as hashes.dat for faster subsequent runs.

• First Run: Generates a 4GB DAG using 8 CPU threads. This may take time depending on your computer. Saves the DAG as hashes.dat for future use.
• Next Runs: Loads hashes.dat to skip DAG generation, speeding up startup.

If you need to regenerate the DAG, delete hashes.dat and run the karlsenminer again. More information about mining and already available third-party miners are in the README.md
