No point in bitcoin Go for a CPU coin like HODL Use Nicehash or MinersGate, I would reccomend Nicehash https://www.nicehash.com/?p=software#cpu Title: Re: 24 VPS x4 cores each [mining vps] Post by: modie on April 17, 2016, 01:42:36 PM its windows dude

New CPUs with AESNI are much faster Title: Re: 24 VPS x4 cores each [mining vps] Post by: modie on April 17, 2016, 02:21:57 PM well its different CPU's each vps but i'm pretty sure that if i'm use them all on mining something good, I could get good cash i hope i'm not get it Wrong way
If that HODL works good now days where should i go ? like can you link me pool url , wallet to register , Miner to use on my servers ? Thank you very much for Friendly replies Title: Re: 24 VPS x4 cores each [mining vps] Post by: USScrypto on April 17, 2016, 04:43:05 PM Check the official HODL thread, it has all the details: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1317918.0
Title: Re: 24 VPS x4 cores each [mining vps] Post by: greaterninja on April 18, 2016, 05:44:19 AM Mining Ethereum on work resources can get you fired if people notice it is impacting network or resource performance. 24 VPS x 4 cores would be 96 MH/s max if each core did 1 mh/s. Usually it takes 4 high end cores to do 1-2 MH/s.
So if 96 MH/s then about $388-$500/month at today's rate of $9.25/Eth Personally, I'd ask the boss if its ok or I'd only use work to host the miner for its power and network. Usually there are policies against such activities and I've known people to get fired for bitcoin mining at work. |
