Title: Primecoin worth mining now? Post by: sameev29 on January 15, 2014, 11:50:25 AM Primecoin is still a cpu only mineable coin.I was looking at difficulty and its over 10 now.Some miners say its not worth to mine anymore.Well I might get a dedicated server for a very low price,was wondering if I can use it to mine primecoins.Dont know how many coins it can mine per day.
Looking forward to hearing from miners who are mining primecoins currently and about how their cpu is performing with the current difficulty. Title: Re: Primecoin worth mining now? Post by: GreekBitcoin on January 15, 2014, 12:02:34 PM Check Datacoin too ;)

Title: Re: Primecoin worth mining now? Post by: MisO69 on January 15, 2014, 02:25:37 PM Primecoins are not easy to mine. I had 280 cpu cores pointed at it and was only able to get about 20 per day. That was back in November. I'm sure it still around there. So with a single cpu, well you ain't gettin' much... You would be better off mining a coin like Frozen.

You might be able to get 3 coins after mining for four days Title: Re: Primecoin worth mining now? Post by: MisO69 on January 15, 2014, 03:23:56 PM Primecoins are not easy to mine.

I was mining on ypool so we were finding most blocks. The problem is there were 60,000 workers on that pool mining. My take from each block was .01 to .05 depending on the time of day. Back in September I was getting about .10 to .30 per block. Much better back then, I should have bought more VPS accounts then. Oh well.. Title: Re: Primecoin worth mining now? Post by: FreedomCoin on January 15, 2014, 05:28:51 PM ive been mining xpm for about 3-4 months and i see difficulty coming up, i am looking into mining a different coin as the price action is not increasing with the difficulty. kinda what happened with litecoin before the December boom.
