Title: Low power cunsumption coins Post by: Degolep on March 31, 2014, 11:44:21 AM I wan't to to save up some money on electricity by mining coins that don't use so much as scrypt. So which are these coins?
DarkCoin, HiroCoin, Myriad with groestl algo,... And also summer is coming and the heat will be.... Title: Re: Low power cunsumption coins Post by: iopq on March 31, 2014, 11:48:49 AM groestlcoin is what I'm mining now when it's profitable and I use a script to check which algo is best for myriad

Title: Re: Low power cunsumption coins Post by: WayToGo on March 31, 2014, 09:37:30 PM Consider some POS coins instead of mining and you could save a lot of energy.
There are loads of new ones coming out everyday now. Title: Re: Low power cunsumption coins Post by: Degolep on March 31, 2014, 09:46:17 PM naaaaah :P
Title: Re: Low power cunsumption coins Post by: notallthere on March 31, 2014, 09:54:17 PM Maybe take a look at heavycoin.
Title: Re: Low power cunsumption coins Post by: Degolep on March 31, 2014, 09:57:15 PM just found this
If you guys could help me add to this list that would be great. We want to create an awesome algorithm monitoring hub to analyze the prominence of emerging hashing functions and their net hashrate dynamics. I'm trying to compile every coin that exists that isn't purely SHA256, Scrypt, Skein, Groestl, or Qubit. No PoS coins! Updated List Adaptive N: Vertcoin, GenesisCoin, ExeCoin, SpainCoin, SiliconValleyCoin, Rotocoin, GPU-Coin, 10-5 Coin, H2OCoin, RotoCoin, CaiShen, Altcoin, EmuCoin, Rhinohorn, ThePandaCoin(PANDA), CherryCoin, WolongCoin, PerfectCoint, MinerTokens, Euphorian, Cataloniacoin Scrypt-Jane: Ultracoin, microCoin, Pennies, CopperBars, AppleCoin, Cachecoin, Tickets, Graphene, Bitleu, Fatecoin, FreeCoin, GoldPressedLatinum, HeroCoin, OneCoin, Pingas, RadioactiveCoin, ThorCoin, VendettaCoin, ZcCoin, YacCoin, InsertCoin, NITCoin Cunningham Chains: DataCoin, PrimeCoin X11: Darkcoin, HiroCoin SHA-3/Keccak: 365Coin, CryptoMeth, Galleon, InkCoin CateDoge, eCoin, Palcoin, HelixCoin, Scrasic, MaxCoin, Slothcoin, NEM, Wolf, CopperLark, Sifcoin, WeCoin, UkraineCoin Blake: Landcoin, Blakecoin, Photon, Quark: Quark, Quarkbar, AnimeCoin, DIMEcoin, InternationalCoin, Randomquark, PopulaceCoin, SIFCoin, SecureCoin, OxCoin, DiamondCoin, Online-to-Offline HSH256: Mediterraneancoin Scrypt-PGC: Pangu Scrypt-HTC: HuitongbiCoin Fugue256: FugueCoin, CrownCoin Proof of Friction: FrictionCoin SHA1: SHA1Coin Groestl x2: GroestlCoin Prime: RieCoin Momentum: Protoshares, MemoryCoin (modified) Unclassified: ChainCoin, HunterCoin, Heavycoin Please add to the list! I'll give each person 200 Myriad for each coin they can hunt down and add to the list. We want to include every coin, even the coin with just 1 miner on it (if it exists).

Title: Re: Low power cunsumption coins Post by: Degolep on April 01, 2014, 05:31:55 AM Yes I know that already i'm just looking for any other than x11 that uses 50% less than scrypt
Title: Re: Low power cunsumption coins Post by: wasamata on April 01, 2014, 05:39:48 AM MINT
COMM ECC NXT TEK PPC BC HBN All are POS coins that produce coins without power. I could go on, but I dont want to take all your myriads ;D Title: Re: Low power cunsumption coins Post by: presstab on April 01, 2014, 05:44:28 AM I suggest staking with HoboNickels. No GPU required, as it would be utilizing the proof of stake coin generation. Easy for beginners because stake starts at 10 days.
Title: Re: Low power cunsumption coins Post by: Munken on April 01, 2014, 07:07:44 AM Either you go with POS or then your out of luck. How can people even think there is something like low power consumption coins? Either you want to mine at full power(100%) or you decrease your power consumption = fewer coins. If X11 is said to use less power that's just bullshit, you realize that this means that mining X11 coins is not optimized and your basically mining at less efficiency.
Title: Re: Low power cunsumption coins Post by: shtako on April 01, 2014, 09:19:58 AM When you use less energy/generate less heat while mining these coins that mean your mining software is not efficient. It is very likely that more efficient software already exicts for these algorithms that take advantage of the full potential of the GPU which mean the same temperature and energy consumption as scrypt, and a significantly higher hashrate.

Like Litecoin where designed to be CPU only? :) groestl actually doesn't tax the gpu as much, so while you can make an asic for it, you're probably not going to because of how unpopular it is and nobody is wasting their time trying to optimize the last 1% of the mining script |
