Title: [CPU] Finally set up a VPS. Now what?
Post by: OBAViJEST on May 05, 2015, 09:22:47 PM
Hi guys,

I'm pretty new to mining, and since I don't have the resources to build a giant mining farm, I created a simple VM through google.  Currently, it's mining XMG (Magi) (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=735170.0;topicseen) as that's the first alt community I fell into upon registering here.

Now I come to you for help:  what coin(s), if any, could I set up to mine with CPU power?  Any VPS hosts that provide better processing power than google (I'm only using their free trial).  I'm not looking to get rich quick, but learning the ropes while acquiring a couple different coins or three would be nice.  If you CPU mine altcoins, let me know, and I'll check them out.   

Thanks in advance!

I would recommend checking out http://www.coinwarz.com/ and filtering by whatever algorithms your interested in mining and getting a quick birds eye view as to each coins profitability.  Alternatively you could consider a pool that auto-mines most profitable coin it can determine at any given moment (i.e. nicehash, multipool)
