Title: Calculating Coins Per Day
Post by: Sitaga on March 17, 2014, 03:13:54 PM
I found a calculation to determine the number of BitCoins earned per hash:

=(86400*Hash*25)/(2^32*Difficulty)

86400 = Seconds in a Day
25 = Bitcoins in a block
2^32 = Shares to find a block

How do I apply this formula to another coin? 
Do all coins list the number of shares to find a block? 
How does inventor of an alternate coin normally list the number of shares to find a block?
Do all coins list the number of coins per block or do I need to find a block to determine it?
Where is difficulty normally listed for a coin?
Does this formula change when applied to Scrypt coins or other algorithm coins?

Thanks in advance for your assistance,
Sitaga

Is this the wrong forum for this message?  Where else should I post it?
