Hi guys i have mining rig with GTX 1060 6gb graphic cards. I want you please suggest me which coin should i mine for long term like 2 to 3 year. Also i was mining RVN coin but it seems it just go below ground and keep dig. Thanks in advance please reward me with your best advise .

ETH

1 x 1060, try NicehashOS, and set power to LOW...you might be surprised.

ETH or ETC. After ETC fork, NVIDIA GPUs have max hash due to smaller size of the DAG file. But thats why GPUs from ETH goes to mine ETC and profit from mining ETH becomes higher. So choose one of this coins.

If you mine Ethereum, then with each epoch your hashrate will drop, because the size of the dag file grows.
The main expenses of the miner are the payment of electricity
90 watts of consumption with a hashrate of 23 mh/s is not the best indicator now, but according to all mining calculators,
the best coin for mining is ETH

Thanks all for reply. i have no issue o electricty cost but i am looking for approx one to two year holding that mined coin.

Hm, the most profitable coin for GTX1060 right now is AION and it's another EquiHash algo project, you can make up to 0.90$ per one card without electricity bill deduction though, don't take this so serious just an advice, if I were you I'd sell these cards on ebay and buy better graphic cards for mining, gamers are still spending money on old nvidia gpu for gaming so you will sell for good price

You can't make more than 45cents mining with a single gtx1060 right now, not that good for mining anymore but if you can do some research on new altcoins you might be able to get your hands on reasonable amounts or quantities of the altcoin, know that it's not always about the quantities but the quality of the project, make sure the new altcoin is worth mining before you start, look into

1. Vdollar
2. Aion
3. Veil
4. Super Zero

You can only get away with gtx1060 by mining with free electricity now, the cards are not Profitable anymore, on amazon gtx1060 are still selling @ $299 to $384, that's roughly the exact amount I can get a gtx1660 ti or super, I suggest you let go of these cards and buy latest cards that are sufficient for mining

Most gtx1060 graphic cards have 3gb VRAM and they are also near obsolete for mining today, it's going to be a pain in the ass for find mining softwares that still supports gtx1060 cos many have abandoned this card, the best thing you can do is to download XMRIG for RandomX Algorithm, it should work for mining Monero but don't expect good profits, most gains will be going to electricity fee

There are much coins for 3GB cards and he has a 6GB card by the way  ::)

wow that is really worthy information. i will consider it. thanks.

What a nonsense! AION is not even about $0.90 per 1*1066. It gave you about $0.40-0.50 without electricity at it`s best time. I tried it twice trusting to one of the crypto calculators. WTM shows real profit, that 3-4 times less than ETH.
