Crypto-currency Mining on Microsoft's Azure Virtual Machine Platform

Recently after deciding to dip into the ever growing world of Crypto-Currency Mining i stumbled upon a Free Trial at Microsoft's Azure Cloud Mining Platform.
Knowing already that a Machine running a Windows Instance Platform is Slower than a Linux Ubuntu I set up Several Vm's and aimed my miner's at my Favorite Mining Pool "Minergate" https://minergate.com/a/fae71705493ba1a9942fb380
Since Unless You have a Supercomputer the only real chance of making some crypto cash is by mining BCN (ByteCoin)

Here is the Results From a 16 Core VM Running Cpuminer-Multi (Wolf) (The Fastest Cpu Miner Available Today)

[2016-08-11 13:04:34] Using JSON-RPC 2.0

Simply Awesome!!!!!!!!

This is the Most Simple Setup for A Linux Ubuntu Server Running 16.04 LTS

After You Login to Your Terminal:Copy and Paste The Following!!!!!!!!

sudo apt-get update &&
sudo apt-get install automake autoconf pkg-config libcurl4-openssl-dev libjansson-dev libssl-dev libgmp-dev make g++ -y &&
git clone https://github.com/wolf9466/cpuminer-multi &&
cd cpuminer-multi &&
./autogen.sh &&
./configure CFLAGS="-march=native" --with-crypto --with-curl &&
make

Then Input:
sudo ./minerd -a cryptonight -o stratum+tcp://bcn.pool.minergate.com:45550 -u Your Minergate User Email Here -p Your Minergate User Password Here -t Amount of Threads Here

And Your Off and Running!!!!!!

To Run Your Miner and have it to continue to Run after You shut your terminal access You MUST Implement this Command:
nohup sudo ./minerd -a cryptonight -o stratum+tcp://bcn.pool.minergate.com:45550 -u Your Minergate User Email Here -p Your Minergate User Password Here -t Amount of Threads Here

To Verify that Your Miner is still working after you Close terminal You can Log back i and Implement the Following.

sudo apt-get install htop

after install simply enter the command htop

There you go!!!!!!

Your Off and Mining!!!!!!!!!!
