Title: What's the best bitcoin mining pool to enter? Post by: jefok on January 10, 2014, 08:14:19 PM I'm not sure, i have two intel i 3, what's the best bitcoin mining pool to enter with these two pc?
Title: Re: What's the best bitcoin mining pool to enter? Post by: Loki-L on January 10, 2014, 08:45:55 PM I don't think that trying to mine Bitcoin at all with just those these two CPUs can be recommended regardless of pool.
Do you have any graphic cards in these machines or just the onboard graphics? Title: Re: What's the best bitcoin mining pool to enter?

You're probably better off just opening an account at https://cex.io (https://cex.io) Title: Re: What's the best bitcoin mining pool to enter? Post by: odolvlobo on January 10, 2014, 11:24:24 PM The feasibility of mining with a CPU ended more than a year ago. It will cost far more in electricity than you will mine. Even if electricity is free, the amount you mine (especially with an i3) will be so close to 0 that many pools will just call it 0.
So, if you really want to mine, you will first need to find pools that support mining with a CPU, and then choose the best one. Title: Re: What's the best bitcoin mining pool to enter?

Post by: Jacce on January 11, 2014, 01:21:44 AM If you really would like to mine with a CPU, you should check into Quarks or Primecoin because they can only be mined with CPU and are therefore a lot more profitable, especially when there are ASICs for Bitcoin.

You're probably better off just opening an account at https://cex.io (https://cex.io) To get bang for you buck yes, but adding to the hashpower of cex.io is not wise.

The 51% risk was addressed yesterday.

You want to have a usb asic attached to both of them ;).Title: Re: What's the best bitcoin mining pool to enter?

Title: Re: What's the best bitcoin mining pool to enter? Post by: madcat777 on January 11, 2014, 08:47:17 AM IMO - btcguild is the best
Title: Re: What's the best bitcoin mining pool to enter? Post by: Wusolini on January 11, 2014, 10:51:29 AM it depends
- choose big one like CEX or BTCGuild you'll get small reward of each block (lots of blocks found every day) - choose small one like eg. tripplemining, it take few days to find 1 block, but you'll get higher reward. also it's bbit about luck PS: buy some ASIC, dont use CPU for mining it's only wasting of energy |
