Title: Other SHA-256 Crypto Currencies
Post by: LilGhost on September 14, 2013, 08:26:55 PM
Are there other SHA-256 currencies which are used online and are fairly well established? If so, what are they? And, I believe the answer to this is yes, can a "Bitcoin ASIC" be used to mine these currencies?

If you don't mind, in your opinion what is the best alternate SHA-256 coin to mine? What consistently shows high conversion values and high mining payoff? If you know, that is.

Perfect because I was looking at mining ZET already.

ASC is doomed Super random blocks coins always fail.  ZET has way to many  millions of coins already mined. the coin i'd be hoarding Ocoin OSC. low block rewards high starting difficulty means much some work put into it! I notice of that build date  july 4th, 2013 so obviously that developer  working on it for a while maybe as well. i think that if that coin developer fix NAN Nanotokens(because he made them to, the NAN tokns) then maybe Crispy adds Ocoin too

I'm having 1 problem getting started mining ZET coins. When I run CGMiner, this is what happens:

Can anyone be of assistance?

Buy a Block Erupter USB (336M) or reserve a NanoFury (2~2.7G) if you want cheaper stuff, or save up and buy a DrillBit 8 (21.6G). All of those have orders of magnitude more hashpower than your card.

Buy a faster miner with more than 12mh/s.

Planned on it, but I was doing a very quick check on how it runs on CGMiner as I'm currently finishing up adding a bunch of stuff to my amazon order (USB hubs and stuff) which includes 12 Block Erupters aka 3.96 GH/s - 4.032 GH/s.
