Title: Profitable Bit/Altcoin for CPU Mining on Dedicated Server? Post by: VortexHS on December 14, 2013, 09:38:58 AM I own a dedicated server hosting company and thought I may be able to make some extra profit using one of my unused servers.
What would be most profitable for an E3-1270v2 server to mine? And what about i7-2600? Do you recommend a mining pool? If so, which one? Please include statistics to back up your statement if possible! Thanks. Title: Re: Profitable Bit/Altcoin for CPU Mining on Dedicated Server?

This I was worry as well, but now I just mine only when the coin is profitable and converting to Bitcoin. So this is not issue if you dont hold the mined coins Title: Re: Profitable Bit/Altcoin for CPU Mining on Dedicated Server?
