As far as mining programs are concerned, there's only two types of coins - scrypt and SHA256. The miners don't care what the actual coin is.
Cool, can I use my account at cryptsy (which has a wallet for every currency) to enter for the outputs of my miner?
The main issue is the multipool I want to join has far too many currencies for my current miners, I might want to mine four of these, but the most MacMiner gives is two mining options, and my others only one. Could it be setup in anyway to mine my four alt currencies with a better miner of some sort?
