Title: Altcoins to be mined with a Raspberry Pi 3? Post by: Bradstrange on January 30, 2018, 10:12:47 PM Does anyone know any alt coins that could be mined with significant rewards from a Raspberry Pi 3?

it can mine but it wont be worth it but you can use raspberry pi 3 to stake pos coins Title: Re: Altcoins to be mined with a Raspberry Pi 3? Post by: Amstellodamois on January 31, 2018, 07:40:45 PM You can mine Burst :-)

Many people used to buy a lot of them and setup mini mining farms using them. As far as I know, Raspberry Pi isn't powerful anymore to mine any altcoin with satisfying earnings. You had better used it for running for example a Bitcoin node which could benefit the network or a Lightning Network node from which you will be able to profit.

Post by: Amstellodamois on January 31, 2018, 09:15:54 PM Seriously, I believe the Raspberry Pi is a smart choice for HDD mining.
You might want to plot with something else, though. No idea. Title: Re: Altcoins to be mined with a Raspberry Pi 3?

I have a few lying around so I haven't exactly got anything to lose. Title: Re: Altcoins to be mined with a Raspberry Pi 3? Post by: NobodyIsHome on January 31, 2018, 09:32:17 PM 1? For practice, OK. 10? Not worth the time or money. 1000? Maybe things get a little interesting, but its power efficiency isn't on par with a desktop CPU, much less a GPU. Not to mention it's ridiculously expensive. Title: Re: Altcoins to be mined with a Raspberry Pi 3? Post by: Bradstrange on January 31, 2018, 09:57:00 PM 1? For practice, OK. 10?

I have two lying around so all two of them, I doubt I will make anything. Currently at work we have 16 computers with i5 processors and we're looking to potentially cluster them for crypto currency mining, any suggestions on what currency?

I have 2x RasPi 3's and a 2 here that Im doing nothing with. And I was thinking about trying Burst out anyway. WIll be scouring the web now to figure this out Title: Re: Altcoins to be mined with a Raspberry Pi 3?
