Best CPU Mineable Coins in 2019 and CPU Mining Guides [UPDATED!]

[juice_099]

Webchain is CPU minable coin, same as Monero and other coins mentioned in this topic. It's listed #1 (most profitable coin to mine) here http://minecryptonight.net/

Of course this changes, but that's how it is now, #1

and same as all other cryptonight coin it can be mined by GPU but without big advantage, please google about specifics of cryptonight and you will learn that GPUs don't have such huge advantage as for example when mining bitcoin or ethereum.

Check this page for example https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/CryptoNight to understand how it works.

GPUs don't have a huge advantage?

You mean you can cram 12 CPUs on a single board?
Even if you find a way to do it, how much power draw will they have?
How much space they are going to take? How noisy?
You can just go in any computer shop and buy these CPUs and a single motherboard?

I would agree that: CPU mining Cryptonight is also profitable, but GPUs will always have advantage.

No doubt GPUs have the advantage, even one 1080 has way more hashpower than most CPUs, not to mention you can have bunch of them in one rig, while multi-processor systems are only on high end servers. Although Webchain officially don't support GPU mining and altered the algo to even the level, community are doing it anyway.

Nobody will stop them from doing it. That's the beauty of decentralized system.

What JSE is doing instead is complete and total centralization, and they admit to it, let me quote them "The JSEcoin system is currently fully centralized. " taken from their page.

So the question is why they do mining at all? It's artificial mining that has no use case.

Normally mining is there to secure decentralized network. In centralized system like that, it makes absolutely no sense. They kept it as marketing trick I guess so people who earlier mined decentralized coins can switch and feel like at home, thinking they are doing same thing. But they don't.

Good luck with that aproach long-term.

I guess the JSE approach is more like a big "Airdrop"... something like Electroneum's mobile mining app.
Though JSE script really seems to compute / hash... and it does use some CPU.

Quite unclear, actually :/

Maybe it's time to ask that question on their forum?

There are many algorithms in which even relatively inexpensive CPUs show significantly better results than GPUs.

[CryptoFrancoQc]

What do you think about BLOC.money? Is it a good pick for CPU mining?

Perf per wat, price per watt, perf per dollar, GPUs beats CPU anywhere (unless algo is made specifically to cripple GPU performance).
I'm excluding specialized server CPUs as they are much more expensive and require special equipment which is not found in any
computer store. But even if you count them, they are still more power hungry than a well tuned GPU.

Anyone can open https://monerobenchmarks.info/ and see for himself how GPU and CPU perform on the same
algo and compare the hashrate, hardware price, power draw, etc.

Since Cryptonight is one of the best CPU/GPU minable algo, this is the best chance for you to show here
your bright (mis)understanding on how algorithms work.

I think he means that there are several algos that GPUs cannot mine which are CPU only. I've mined HODL, ROI, and a few of the Argon2d algos myself. I think it's a waste of time to try and compete with GPUs and ASICs to mine a GPU/ASIC coin with a CPU. You may as well mine BTC with your CPU if you insist on throwing money away for electricity and mining for a loss. You're better off to stick to a CPU only algo coin if you mine with a CPU. Trade those CPU coins for BTC and buy Monero or whatever coin you want in the end. It's not rocket science and you'll profit instead of lose.

Hi Guys,

I think the point of this thread is being missed....

"Best CPU Mineable Coins in 2018 and CPU Mining Guides"

We need to be suggesting the best CPU mineable coins out there, and helping each other to mine them, not debating the pros and cons of cpu vs gpu....there's plenty of other forums for that.

Having the need for someone to translate for what someone meant does not speak well for @astraleureka
If that is what he actually meant, than I agree. I also agree with minerja, so let's cut the crap and focus on
most profitable CPU mining coins (no matter how scarce they are nowadays).

Right now, we're focused on growing our mining community. The apps available prove our vision is very realistic but the apps themselves need more development before attracting additional users. We want to grow our userbase when the time is right, but in the mean time, we need more CPU miners to support and promote the network.

Plenteum (PLE) is doing well and growing.

- Awesome community
- Excellent dev, not only skilled actually great with people as well
- Unique idea with dust fund
- ASIC resist with CN-LITE V1

What to you think about X-CASH. Makes sense to mine?

[serhanni]

Anyone mining webchain? It's minable with cpu and web mining is available by coinimp. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3649170.0

[RinceWind84]

Cryonote, formely known as bitnote.

Had some problems back in march, and was paused.

New launch has been made and we are not even half way through instamineprotection/warmup phase.

New cryptonote-dark algo, massively favoring cpu's over gpu's.
