Is it possible to mine bytecoins (bcn) with antminer s9?? Pls help. Which other coins can i mine with antminer s9, pls advise... I want to mine solo altcoins. Title: Re: Antminer s9 , can i mine altcoins Post by: Emoclaw on December 11, 2017, 08:25:02 PM You cannot mine BCN with the Antminer S9 because it uses the CryptoNight Proof-of-Work algorithm and the Antminer S9 can only mine SHA-256 coins.
Here are some SHA-256 coins that you can use your S9 to mine: Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Curecoin, Peercoin, Joulecoin. You might want to read these sources to learn more about how Proof-of-Work and its different algorithms work: https://bitcoin.org/en/faq#mining https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Proof_of_work https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof-of-work_system Title: Re: Antminer s9 , can i mine altcoins Post by: IT_AEX on December 11, 2017, 09:55:50 PM Check out in http://whattomine.com/asic
In there you only need to select SHA256 algo, calculate and a dropdown list will show the most profitable coins to mine. Title: Re: Antminer s9 , can i mine altcoins Post by: dagarair on December 11, 2017, 10:28:40 PM i'll give you 500$ for your S9 :P

For your s9, you can mine any coin that you want that has the sha-256 algorithm ONLY. This gives you a few options but you'd be mainly mining Bitcoin or BCH. Hello, Is it possible to mine bytecoins (bcn) with antminer s9?? Pls help. Which other coins can i mine with antminer s9, pls advise... I want to mine solo altcoins. So no you can't mine BCN with your s9. Why do you want to solomine altcoins ??? Right now the profitability of BTC and BCH mining is amazing. Why not exploit that and make the most out of it. You're basically leaving the easy way and looking for the difficult way of making money. Anyway, you can check the most profitable coin for your miner on whattomine through this link. https://goo.gl/W7iEui According to them you'd be making no less than $37 per day with BTC and you have other options of course. Don't waste your electricity on crappy coins (that popup in the altcoins section) as you'll probably get nothing out of them other than wasting your time.
