Greetings,
I am from X-Cash team. I would like to kindly ask you if you can add our new custom algorithm to your mining software.
Proof Of Work algorithm was changed from Cryptonight V8 to modified Cryptonight HeavyX, to try to prevent ASICs and or FPGAs from mining on the network. This means as well that we are now nicehash resistant.

Daemon: https://github.com/X-CASH-official/X-CASH/releases/tag/1.5.0

You can reach us through the Discord community if any further information required:

Thank you for your time.

Would suggest not using keyword "Heavy" unless also 4MB scratchpad size (that is what most would consider what "Heavy" means with CN algos) it would only lead to more confusion.

2MB scratchpads are not Lite (1MB) nor Heavy (4MB)

If you double the work maybe try "Hard2X" or something

Please provide a pool address and a wallet address which I can use for testing.
