Title: Which altcoin is easiest to mine?
Post by: forzendiablo on November 08, 2013, 01:16:47 AM
As my current computers [not iners usual computers] are sucky for BTC what would u say is easiest now for GPU and what for CPU?

lets say from this circle:
novacoin
primecoin
feathercoin
terracoin
ppcoin
cryptogenic bullion


is there any website calculator wher i can ie put specs of comp and see which coin would it mine fastest?

easiest is mine the lowest difficulty altcoin, but you should look for most profitable altcoin instead....

well im speaking shortly - which is easiest to mine to make BTC from it.
calculators dont take part of the % of foudn blocks which differs between coins.

Easy and profitable do not really go together, because the more profit, the more competitors flock to it, making it harder.

So easiest is the lowest difficulty, and that can also be massively far and away the most profitable in the long run, for example last year for about a whole year people could mine BBQcoin with just one core of a CPU quite nicely, and after doing that for a year they made massive amounts of money as compared to the electricity they had spent on it over the year, far and away the highest profits that year for anyone who did it.

Right now though even Tenebrix and Fairbrix is hard with just a CPU, but if you have a GPU you can rake in lots of both just with one GPU. Then after doing that for a year start working on bringing them back into the limelight like happened to BBQcoin after its year of CPU mining and you could make way the heck more money than you would with any other coins.

In general mine what other people are ignoring, and sell what they have pumped up if they pumped it high enough to make parting with it so cheap seem worth doing.

I'd suggest CGB and MEC, they're both with high profitability.

try to look on sites like coinchoose and coinwarz :)  or join a multipool, it will automatically mine the most profitable coin :)

Thanks! I understood now! I was looking for a easy and a profitable coin like him but couldn't find it. I think it is better to get back in mining Bitcoin or Litecoin, "Something Is Better Than Nothing!"

Football Coin is easy to mine solo

You can get blocks even without a gfx card - just using setgenerate true.

I think Feathercoin is the easiest one to mine from the above mentioned one :)

Another vote for Curecoin. You can fold on CPU and GPU while also helping important research. Curecoin Announcement https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=603757.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=603757.0)

When you say "easiest" does this mean you don't have a lot of hashing power?

Why not try staking instead?

Staking yields great returns and does not burn through electricity and processors


Here is an interesting post about staking:
