Added a new coin: Fonero Coin (FNO), you will get about 6 tokens/day. Happy mining

There is an unofficial discord for SPOTmeCoin here : https://discord.gg/nCsxdMf The low diff makes this a great coin for CPU mining.

Ok, this one seems promising from what I can see. Added it to the first post in this thread. There is an unofficial discord for SPOTmeCoin here : https://discord.gg/nCsxdMf The low diff makes this a great coin for CPU mining. Do you have any other info on it? Are you mining it now? What pools are you using? Although this coins was launched at the beginning of January it has not gained enough traction & attention from users on BCT. I would be a bit cautious to mine it at this time, it may be a waste of time.

But you should mention another pool like http://cryptoknight.cc/haven/ with 0% fee. xhv.luckypool.io is a good one too but the majority of minners are on it which is not a good thing for crypto. I've selected that pool because it's more popular and it has more miners on it. I have tried multiple pools in the past but it seems that you get more consistent results when you join large pools. Not to mention the importance of the pool having a high uptime. From what I've seen until now, mining on a pool that has a lot of members is not a bad thing at all, especially when resolving a block takes more than 100% effort. Another good point is that blocks are found very fast - about 4 min on luckpool.io rather than 4h on cryptoknight.cc Of course, the block reward will be split between more users but I think it's a good compromise because there will be more blocks. What was your experience with pools?

For now it seems I'm getting more XHV per day on this one. But at the end it should be equivalent. It's more to have at least 2 large pool than a big one.

I usually don't recommend joining 0% fee pools because they either have bad uptime or they steal your good shares. When it comes to the effort used to mine a block by the pool, I have been lucky in the past on smaller pools and mined blocks with 20-40% effort and got the rewards fast but once you get a few 200% effort blocks (which will happen sooner than you think) all that advantage will be lost.

Yes I understand that, but what I was saying is to avoid having all minners on the same pool. By the way this pool get down and here is what happened:

I recommend the use of pay pools. They are more powerful and there are no scammers. But now you need to start looking for other algorithms. If you do get X3 Antminer on the cryptonight mining algorithm using GPU will be forgotten. The first deliveries are scheduled for mid-may. You don't have much time left. May be better to look for other options?

I doubt they will start mining the coins I have listed here with ASICs and it seems the coin developers have started to hard fork in order to introduce ASIC resistance. Like I said in other threads, I doubt the small trade volume coins with survive the ASICs.

I hope that most of the new coins will be ignored by the ASICS crowd as they'd be able to fuck it all up in seconds. On the bright side, most of the cryptonote devs I've seen who've posted are fairly anti ASICS.

Indeed, they are anti-ASIC, that's why I chose this algorithm for CPU mining in the first place At the time I created this thread, CryptoNight coins were not minable with ASICs (or at least it wasn't known yet that it's possible) and now that someone has found a way to do it, the majority will hard fork to maintain the ASIC resistance. To keep everything back on topic, what coins are you mining with your CPU?

At the moment I've mined ITNS and DCY, then for a potentially good upcoming coin I'm mining PinkStar, as per your 1st post at an average of 150Hs you should get around 900 PNKS per 24Hrs https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2723196.0

I'm really confused about ByteCoin (BCN). Half of the people here seem to despise it and tell me to stay far away from it. But it looks like it's doing alright. I only know a little bit about the story behind bytecoin too.
I was also put off with Bytecoin after reading up here but I suppose it doesnt hurt to hedge your bets so I may start digging, I know this thread is about Cryptonight coins but could I ask has anyone any opinion about the Yescrypt coins, sorry to slightly go off topic but they are only for CPU mining

As for mining Software I use XMR-Stack although I have used Xmrig but defo get better Hs with XMR-Stack, Xmrig is availble for 32bit aswell whereas XMR-Stack i'snt which maybe a advantage to some, but I guess it all depends on the PC you have and your own preference. There is some nice GUI software but its only in Beta so is a little buggy and you may need to uninstall and reinstall to get it working ok, thats called Sumo Easy Miner, the default is setup for sumo mining but you can add in your own pools to mine other coins, if you where too mine more than one coin at a time you can select how many cores you want to use per coin which is quite cool, hope a update for it comes along soon https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2163270.0

Ok, I have added it to the main post. The current estimate says you can get 1200 tokens/day with that hash rate, even better This one looks interesting, I see it has some activity on BCT. Let's hope it's going to be a winner in the long run.

I think cryptunit calculates ETN wrong. Its way off compared to whattomine and what I tested the last days whattomine (adding 35% for the pool-luck factor) is far more realistic. I tested on nanopool and spacepools.
Any thoughts?
Cheers
