Title: Is Dual Mining DEAD? Post by: davemanet on January 20, 2018, 07:31:59 AM Hi All,
I mine ETH + alt coin like sia or DCR. With Bitmain releasing the A3 sia miner, and the obelisk coming out soon, sia coin gpu mining is over. That means all the gpu hash power going to sia coin will now move somewhere else.. such as decred. Is there any other good coins to dual mine? Or are we nearing the end? Title: Re: Is Dual Mining DEAD? Post by: adaseb on January 20, 2018, 07:56:44 AM SIA is already not profitable for GPUs.
Its either PASC or DCR. If Bitmain announces a DCR ASIC next month then its only PASC coins left. Both of those PASC coins are thinking of switching algos. So nothing left to dual mine... Title: Re: Is Dual Mining DEAD? Post by: Branko on January 20, 2018, 08:14:40 AM Yes

Post by: The Demon Slick on January 20, 2018, 09:54:52 AM I'm doing dcoin SIA, it's not really about profitable for me, just free coins while I bang out music or pirl or whatether. I'm small time dual 580, so nothing is going to be all that profitable, but it's better than letting my gaming rig do nothing all day. With the upcoming increase in difficulty I might never get a payout, the pool I'm on is minimum payout 500. I like sia though, if it takes off I want to be holding some.

Of course your power usage will go up, thats unquestionable |
