Title: Why are there no SHA-256 coins more profitable for mining than Bitcoin Post by: Gazza1 on April 16, 2014, 04:09:59 PM Scrypt Alts are more profitable than Litecoin so why aren't SHA-256 alts more profitable to mine than Bitcoin? All the ones I see are actually worse.

All the ones I see are actually worse. A couple reasons I would think. For one Scrypt coins are held up by the cost of mining since miners wont sell at a loss (or shouldn't). GPU mining is more expensive so the cost of Scrypt coins is higher. At least that would be my guess.

At least that is my theory.
