Ethereum mining @ 17mh/s
ZEC        mining @ 265mh/s


which one is more profitable to mine?

still two it for mining project  profitable ;D

Would recommend using a mining calculator such as CryptoCompare (take all calculations with a pinch of salt). At first glance, profitability seems to be similar for both currencies; not megabucks but still a nice little project. What's your setup if you don't mind me asking?

Would you mine ZEC with your laptop? some people do.

ETH according to zec to increase, more and more became . Zec mining so I think that makes more sense .


Laptop or don't do mining. You will burn the machine .

Just wait for MTP release on ZCoin (XZC) and mine that. At least you'll know you've got a chance to get some coins as it will be ASIC resistant

Yes, I also do not recommend you to mine using a laptop, I think it's all very dangerous to you and your laptop, if you want to mine you should use a PC that is very high spec may make it easier for you to mine

DO NOT mine with your laptop. Even if these are profitable days, you'll barely make any. Plus, it's only a matter of time before it fails. LAptop is not a desktop, you can't replace the video card when it fails ( you can, but it's rare and expensive ).

I think is its profitable to mine because tehreum and zcash is closely same price and this coin the price as of now its 0.1 plus . And if you choose to kine zcash and ethereum and after few months for sure you will earn a lot of profit. You are very lucky because in your country mining is profitable while in my country the electricity is very expensive . So its not porfitable.

Why don't you try mining both the coins. Right now ethereum seems to be growing big with very big percentage. So, based on that if something goes unexpected too, can try to compensate the loss happened with it.

I will choose 70% for ETH and 30% for ZEC because ETH will become to POS and we can't use AMD for mining ZEC good more than NVIDIA!
ZEC and ETH are good, why not mining both and take more profit with small risk?

Fot me its better to mine ethereum because the price of ethereum will continue to increase . Mining ether gives you high profit after few many years of holding and keeping. Ethereum now is now $300 and I believe they will increase more in the next few months.  So its better start mine ethereum now and buy ethereum and make a lot of profit after that. Goodluck. Everyone will make profit.

For me, both of them are profitable. Just in case ETH turns into POS, miners can switch anytime they want. ZEC on the otherhand has a good stability and also profitable in many ways.

If you are planning to mine ,never use your laptop in doing so as it will burn your machine without doubt and it is not that worth if you calculate the amount you are going to make mining with your laptop,just invest some money in a mining rig and that is the way to go to make some profit. ETH difficulty is rising and it wont be that profitable six months from now,make use of it when you can.

just mine eth if you have a chance because it will turn into POS soon and you can never mine with vga again. Then, you can start mining ethereum classic or zcash instead. Well, if I were you, I would mine a lot of coin and hold because we do not know when they will be bumped

Best to mine some coin that is still under the radar and hope for 100x gains eventually.

you can't have 265 mega on zec lol, zcash is in hash a gpu like 1070 can do only 480 hash, you need hunderd of these gpu to have 265mh, but for nvidia i can tell that zec is better, for amd better to go with ETH, you decide whatever it's better for you based on the gpu you have

Eth and zec I choose both of them for mining, but if you have one rig I suggest to choose etherium for mining because the price starts to rise.

ETH is more profitable to mine than ZEC at the moment. All according to this website: https://www.coinwarz.com/cryptocurrency

Although I'd say that ETH is more profitable in the long run too. Lots of people want it to dethrone BTC soon

I think ethereum more profitable.

If trade iam preferered ETH , etherum
but if mining i can't calculate compare use same hardware how much can get coin

I think Zcash ,because Ethereum is in IceAge now.
Dificulty bomb rising.

It's been 8 days after your post so I wonder your decision after all those ideas. What are you mining right now and how does it profitable?
