Hello guys,

What would be the best coin to mine with your personal PC? I mean, I want to keep my PC to mine a few hours every day and get some coins with potential and a solid project, but a low difficulty level in mining. Any ideas?

CrytpoNight can be minned with CPUs. Check Aeon it uses some lite version of CryptoNight. Don't expect any solid profits though.

It depends on your GPU.
Mostly, just try XMR mining with your cpu.

First of all you should be very carefull and explore too much. Is it profitable mining with your PC. Find the answer of this question. Because mining with your PC can make tired your hardwares.

You really can mining this currency with your computer but I'm not sure that it will be profitable. I tried to do it on my comp. I didn't need coins but I was interested to see the process. My 4 core processor AMD and GPU mined each for 18 cents a day. Together they produced 36-42 cents. Probably electricity to power the computer worth more.

If you have a multiple GPUs with the riser you will be able to get the profit easily. You cannot be able to do mining bitcoin with the GPU as it is profit concerned with the PC mining. There are many people mining with the GPU but mostly ETH and Monero choosy for them. As marketplace value changes more on Monero you can choose this coin to mine with your computer and graphic cards.

Yes.Mining in PC also profitable only if you make use of Graphic Cards.You can try of 6 GPU set up with the PC for profit. I tried this, it's profitable only.But need to use of Solar panels for Electricity and cooler for cool the device.You can Mine ETH in PC mining for profit.

A cheap way to go on electricity is to get Solar panel. You can even fabricate yours. Do some research on it too. It would save you a lot of money on the long run.

depending on your doge or espers settings

try ether and xmr  can be mine with CPUs

Don't expect to earn much if you aren't planning to keep it running 24/7. You haven't even posted your PC's specifications to make any reasonable judgement. However, you could choose a few low difficulty or new coins that might look promising, accumulate as many as you can and then hope for their price to spike at a great degree to earn a large profit.

Have a look at the following website, it contains a variety of coins, their value and difficulty and so on : http://www.cryptocoinsinfo.com/

maybe just try to mine some new coins, get some of them to your wallet as there is not much traffic on the net, and just hodl them... one way to deal with it... maybe one coin grows strong, but 99% wont :)

or stick to cryptonight coins like XMR (Monero)

if you have nvidia cards - https://www.crypto-coinz.net
use the calculator there to see the best profit coin.

Does the difficulty being low help with CPU mining?

I've been using minergate to mine Monero and it's take a month and haven't gotten close to a full monero..

OPs should put here what kind of PC Specification he had, what GPU, what CPU, but i just can tell you, yes you can mine
if you want try minergate is the best choice for your PC mining

I agree, I'm also using minergate for almost 3 months now I think but my earnings is only 0.0007 xmr now. Mining with cpu will really not give us good amount :( Better to mine using gpu and high end devices.

I have tried monero mining on my pc with minergate, minergate taking only 1% commission which is quite impressive, but i have no such high quality CPU or GPU to make profit and if i try this then it takes at least 2 - 3 years for a monero. If i will buy it then definitely it will be cheap for me. Mining is only profitable for big miner who have Gh/mh/th/ph hashing power.

Cryptocurrencies have grow to be a sizzling potato for economists and authorities officers alike since they have been first launched to us again in 2009 via BitCoin, which as much as this present day stays essentially the most recognizable cryptocurrency among the many 10 most popular cryptocurrencies in circulation today. Researching for the 6 best coins to mine on a standard laptop isn't a easy activity to do, as cryptocurrencies are an especially versatile and unreliable asset.

Monero still is the best coin to mine using your CPU but if you are looking for profits then forget about it. All CryptoNight coin can be mined using CPU, better search for an AltCoin with that source (a newly lunch coin) and pray for your luck

I'd argue that there is NO CPU mineable coin because you will eventually ruin your CPU mining at extreme loads and high temperatures.

But, to answer your question, i'd say go mine Monero. It's easy to configure Monero miners and price is just enough to be decently profitable. Good luck!

If it would be so easy to mine coins it wouldn't contain any real value.. Otherwise it makes no sense.

I think nisehash miner is best for you. It program will find most profit coin for your PC and mine them. Good luck.

yeah it's not like the good old days
And regarding Monero, I'd say that you are on point. Although the profits won't be anywhere near satisfactory you could potentially make a small amount of money

I agree with BlomBaster if you are not familiar with mining and setups and all that stuff just use nicehash when you want and see if you can get few bucks from that... otherwise you could mine some eth, xmr or vtc :) in my opinion only coins worth while for now.

Sorry to ask. Which miner is the best for btc mining and how much does it cost?

There are literally hundreds of cryptocurrencies and almost all of them provide a lucrative opportunity to profit from a mining perspective.

Now antminer s9 is the best specification contains ASIC bitcoin miner. This will give you highest income you can get from the other miner machines available in online now.
Avalon, Asus are other companies have machines to mine bitcoin but you to check according to your investment ability you can invest to it.
Other than that electricity is the main thing you have to invest which is not controllable, check the mining calc to what you can make.

Use whattomine.com. It tells you everything about what coin to mine.

Thanks for the information.

Also check https://www.cryptocompare.com/mining/calculator (https://www.cryptocompare.com/mining/calculator) since for mining to be profitable it's got to cover the electricity, good luck!

Not many coins support Pc mining

Hola Amigos, estoy haciendo moneda croat con cpu y poco consumo de Luz, no es necesaria tarjeta grafica  en www.croat.cat   ,  entrando en pool 1 y 2 parece interesante! ::)

CUP mining is not that profitable these days

it isnt profitable for cpu mining .. so you must use gpu or asic.. if you really want to earn.

BiblePay (BBP) is a CPU Mining only coin, still a fairly new project only 4-5 months old, 10% of mined coins go to charity

It seems to me that the mining of the Ethash or Equihash algos coins can still bring profit. My friend does this without any special equipment for mining. This brings him a good profit.

monero is the best coin to mine with pc.bytecoin is also good.but future of monero is bright you can try this.

There are couple of coins to mine with pc, electroneum is there providing their own pc app, ethereum too.

It is too long to mine monero with Pc( of course if you have not 1080 or smt like it). And which pool do you mine bytecoin?

The only option for mining at low capacities is to monitor all new coins and try to start the mine one of the first. When the community assess (or not) the project and attract more people to the mining, the complexity will increase and your capacity will not be enough, but you will have the first profit.

Monero mining on your CPU not bad idea, but not with a minergate client of course. Unfortunately, it's  very slow anyway. What do you think about  yenten (YTN) mining ? It made for CPU mining only!  https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/yenten/

I think, the easiest way - using nicehash. I have got 1060 3 gb / i5-6400, it produces 2-2.5 usd/day. Also, i'm not mine 24/7, i use computer for other tasks. That's my small experiment in mining, maybe i'll construct a rig in the future.

It seemed to me on my computer does not make sense to mine, especially 3 hours a day. Does this make any sense? or is it all about special coins? Please tell me who knows this

what do you have a graphics card  ?

Honestly, I'd check out whattomine.com and then from there do research on which ones offer the best CPU mining algorithms unless you have a nice GPU also, which that website is good for too.

It's not easy, but look up the hashrate for your CPU and GPU. Best of luck!

Crypto trading is risky, masternode mining is awesome, find a solid coin and HOLD!!!

I would definitely consider this coin, it has a niche market and had an amazing start!

try to ETN or XMR coin.
and you can check what your PSUs, 80+ rated gold,platinum?.
by the way, PC without GPU. No
The hashrate a small, if you joining a Pool, your PayOut would very long time. wasted an electricity compared profit would that you get.

Probably just Nicehash so you don't have to worry about switching to the most profitable coin, then just buy whatever coins you want with BTC.

For PC, dig something very much, however, at the same time, the intense heat of the graphics card issued tests the heat dissipation of computer system, but if will dig the resulting heat into heating system

ETN, BCN, XMR but depend on your PC spec. Especially, XMR has diff too high for PC with a standard spec. Personally, I don't suggest PC without GPUs to mining. But you can try those coins if indeed curious.

sumokoin, ravencoin, monero

For me right now I would say Monero is the best coin for mine on PC. After hard fork before few days Monero became more profitable then ETH. I don't know how long it will be like that , because most of people who mine ETH will probably start mine Monero and difficulty will increase soon.

there is one idea, it is to earn a normal farm and to drip coins in normal quantities, do not pribodyat and seem homeless, because you spend all your life in the pussy, dribbling on the small things every nonsense

Bitcoin prices are now very high and make bitcoin more tempting to be mined. Mining bitcoin with its own devices can be done with miner / miner equipment that has been finished and the device itself (PC). Bitcoin mining processes are done by: Having wallet / wallet to accommodate bitcoin minerals, listing in pool / mine site one of them in slushpool. Download the bitcoin mine software.

I think the best coin to mine with pc is monera and other coin of lower value like aeon & doge which can all be mined with cpu.

You can mine participate at a distribution Method with Proof of Distributed Computing to get Byteball (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1608859.0) Bytes.
It works with World Community Grid/BOINC and you give your idle computer time to fight against Aids, Cancer, Zika, Ebola and other Diseases.
For your WCG Points you become daily Bytes and WCG Token in your Byteball Wallet.

Please don't forget to join the byteball.org BOINC Team (BOINC Team Id: 35043) or you can use my referral link (https://join.worldcommunitygrid.org?recruiterId=1066336&teamId=R1RD1XTFK92) (it brings me nothing except virtual batches when I've referred a certain amount of people) to sign up on WorldCommunityGrid and join the Team directly.

I understand his bit about crypto crying. if I may recommend to mine Bytecoin (BCN), because it is easier later when will do Withdraw. But it must be calculated too, whether doing mining with PC will benefit you.

For mining with PC you must have high end PC, CPU of this class pc cost how middle GPU.
Only then you can have profit.
Look for anouncements of new coins, on start all mine with cpu's on gui wallets, while pools not be released

Some of the lesser-known coins do have much lower system requirements. Like Evergreencoin (EGC) which uses a hybrid POW and POS system. One won't make big money from mining like with the popular coins (provided that you discover blocks often enough). And you'd need to also own and stake these coins. But it does provide some reward for those who help support the coin by running a node on their laptop/desktop.

By the way, I'm running EGC and Navcoin nodes on a humble 10-year-old Dell laptop. While using it for browsing and word-processing. Every so often, my laptop would successfully discover a block and I'd get a small reward. But it's being involved and contributing to a coin and its community that's my main objective here.

The diff will rise as you mine, if you are hitting the blocks and you need to grab a new coin.  Also, there may be miners on other sites or pools and you are just not having any luck.  It takes some information scanning and some time, but that is the best way to pick an individual coin.

You cannot mine “one coin” of a crypto. When mining your computer is doing complex math in an attempt to solve an algorithm BEFORE every other computer on Earth does the same math. The winner of that competition gets one BLOCK of coins

are you mean is solo mining?, if yes surely can very long to be the winner unless there is having the luck factor.

if it means is joining to the Pool, it doesn't solve the block but you getting a reward from your the hash rate to share in the Pool.

In the future, that the coins will increase their price, in my opinion, the best Moneto or ripple ...

well explained. Simple and can be understood by a layman. thanks
