New variations that use a common base are automatically supported. The 3 bases are +yescrypt (aka yespower v0.5), yespower (aka yespower v1.0), yespower-b2b (yespower with sha256 replaced +with blake2b), and scrypt. + +Variations listed above may be mined using their unique name or by parameters. Below are some known algorithm +variations that are unlisted and must be mined using their parameters. Parameters can be obtained from the +coin's specifications, if the developpers chose to publish them, or buried in the wallet code if not. * -N --param-n: This optional parameter is sometimes specified using the suffix :N added to the algorithm parameter, ie --algo scrypt:1048576. The default value of N if not specified is 1024.
