The various programs that you can run as part of Snowblossom

Basic

• SnowBlossomNode Config Options - The node that maintains peer to peer links and maintains a copy of the blockchain. Responds to queries from other programs regarding the blockchain. Holds no keys.

• SnowBlossomClient Config Options - A basic client that maintains a set of keys and contacts a SnowBlossomNode to get balance information about addresses that it holds. This is how you generated addresses, send funds, etc.

• PoolMiner Config Options - A mining agent that connects to a mining pool and does mining work. Does not require a node (other than the mining pool itself needs to have a node).

• Arktika Config Options - An advanced mining agent, like PoolMiner but supports features like

loading parts of the snowfield from other sources, including memory or over the (local) network.

Advanced/Strange/Other

• SnowBlossomMiner Config Options - A solo (non-pool) miner. Requires a SnowBlossomNode. Not recommended, use PoolMiner or Arktika for most cases.

• MrPlow Config Options - A Snowblossom Mining Pool implementation. Pretty basic. Requires a SnowBlossomNode and accepts connections from PoolMiner and Arktika.
