Description
Fine tuned RandomX calculated difficulty to let anybody with a normal desktop could submit shares.
Motivation and Context
On a normal desktop it was not really possible to get a share using RandomX algorithm because of the difficulty we used (minimum difficulty is used from constants for all network if the calculated one is too low).
