Title: DigiByte Mining with an Antminer
Post by: latecummer on June 03, 2017, 11:08:23 AM
Hi everyone,

I am an absolute beginner when it comes to mining.

Yesterday I did some research about which coins are mineable with an SHA-256 Miner, and DigiByte seems to be mineable because it can be mined on multiple algorithms, including the SHA-256.

So I was trying to figure out the rentability, but I did not manage to get it done because the calculated profabilities I got from a couple of online calculators seemed way to high. Can yoy help me with this? I am struggling to calculate THs, GHs, and MHs. If I had an Antminer with lets say 2 THs, will those 2 THs also be fully used in DigiByte Mining?

With the current exchange rate of DigiByte wouldn't it be extremely profitable to mine these with an Antminer S5 or something like that?

Would this work?

Please redpill me on this.

kind regards,
latecummer

Digibyte price keeps falling.
Is it even worth it to mine Digibyte anymore?

I bought a lot and now hoping it will do better soon.
*keeping my fingers crossed*

I guess it would be profitable, but DigiByte is currently correcting from its hype. I doubt you'll be able to turn more of a profit against mining something like bitcoin.
