Title: Vertcoin mining poll (sort of)
Post by: jballs on January 30, 2014, 06:24:52 AM

So i am not a miner and probably will not become one soon. I read this

http://www.holynerdvana.com/2014/01/vertcoin-about-to-go-vertical.html

And raised a question for you miners. What percentage of current miners do you estimate have the tech skills and adaptation to mine vertcoin?

10% or 90% or...

It is all pretty much over my head but relevant to know the relative difficulty. Full disclosure I own vertcoins but I bought them with bitcoin.

Thanks for your input/output.

I know personally of two miners - both mine VTC now. I think, that above 50% miners will mine simple. I spent about two hours setting my mining rigs on VTC instead of usual scrypt crypto and I have 380Kh/s for each R9 280x and 170Kh/s for each HD7850(It is very good result for VTC).

I love your signature. Go Vert!
