Title: Searching for easy altcoin to mine on PC for 8th grade instruction Post by: zrsmith on January 09, 2016, 12:17:54 AM Hello everyone,
I am looking for an altcoin that can be mined from the wallet that still has low difficulty in order to teach my 8th grade programming class about altcoins. I cannot get permission to run miners that require the installation, plus wallets and new accounts. I was granted permission to install wallets if they mine directly. I remember CorgiCoin and PandaCoin had this option ... so I ask the community for help and your thoughts! I need ASAP, as we start school in 10 days. ??? Thanks a million, Zac Title: Re: Searching for easy altcoin to mine on PC for 8th grade instruction Post by: incognitoworker on January 09, 2016, 12:23:05 AM BYC,AXIOM,FANTOM can all be mined from wallet.

nearly all coins can be mined from inside the wallet (using setgenerate true), mostly their difficulty and network hashrate are too high due to ASICs or GPU miners. Check this site https://www.scryptpool.com/pools/difficulty/descending and try the coins with super low difficulty (mostly abandoned and/or alreay dead coins). It's Scrypt coins but with nearly no miners left, you probably might even find some blocks with wallet mining. Have fun! |
