CryptoNote Mining Pool

Cryptocurrency miners will "pool" their GPU resources ("hashpower") into aggregate "mining pools", so that by the combined effort of all the miners, the pool will receive a reward for the blocks "mined" into the blockchain, and this reward will be distributed among the miners.

CryptoNote is an open-source toolset designed to facilitate the creation of new privacy-focused cryptocurrencies

(CryptoNote = 'Kryptonite'. In a pool. Get it?)
