Say I can do 8MH of Scrypt or 32MH/s of X13 with my rigs,
which should I be mining because of the difficulty? Do the Scrypt and X13 difficulties
even mean the same thing or do you have to multiply the Scrypt diff x 3.9 to
get the X13 diff equivalent? Or do you just mine the lower diff version. It is very
confusing.
This should clear it up, mine the algo that has the least difficulty, it is really that simple. Right now x13 should be best but it fluctuates, the difficulty of x13 is programmed to be higher simply because you have greater hash. In the scenario we have at the moment though, x13 is the easier choice.
