Why would I rent your rig, instead just buying Stellite on exchange?

Mine Loki

Stellite coin are one of the best speculative. And to help,

Personally I think Ravencoin and Pigeoncoin have great potential for 2018 and are both easy to mine.

Most solid blockchain and project of 2018.

WHY DERO AND WHY SMART CONTRACTS NEED PRIVACY ?
In very simple and few words:
Assume you design a smart contract and integrate to access/authorize a building/open a door or any other service like asset-management/tickets/shares distribution based on smart contract.
Many would not like like to share/view details of all other users/customers who used/participated/access that contract/service.
I hope you too would like transparency in contract details but would not like to share/disclose your details to rest of the world.
On DERO blockchain smart contracts details are transparent on blockchain but not user details.

I think you should also be looking at speculative coins which are ALREADY LISTED on exchanges. Its so difficult to rely on a coin to actually get listed. Just take a look at BitcoinPrivate (BTCP), it was developed by the team behind ZClassic and they ran everything professionally but in the end no other exchange listed them. Up to today, the value of the coins is going down because the only place they are listed on is TradeSatoshi. This is a decently well-known team which had problems getting listed, what more for those shitcoins.

I'm also wondering what is good at the moment.
Any sites that are good for keeping up to date about mineable coins?

Thank you in advance.

Look at the Monero after fork (change V7 algo). It is really promising several days after fork. It's like picky cherry 
Then comes band wagon from ETH miners  then the difficulty jump very fast and not so profitable anymore.
It seems that when miner from ETH migrate to Monero, mining ETH becomes more profitable again. You should try before it's too late 

I'm mining Stellite.  Very new CPU coin and the team is excellent.

https://stellite.cash/

Still very very undervalued but growing

You can mine Pegascoin. Has low difficulty, still making many coins, and has 2 unique projects rolling: DOB 1.0 and DOB 2.0 with active development.

Example : ESTIMATED DAILY DAC REWARD is 81 PGC @ http://dob2.pegascoin.com/

Undervaluated until is really discovered.

Any new coins that have been good for anyone?

if you want to exchange your coin in money directly after the payout, you should aim for the most profitable coin (and probably change every day). If you want to hold, then you should select a coin that has the highest chance of survival because there are already too many different coins on the market and many of them will fail sooner or later (if not all of them at some point). I believe coins like ETH have this longer term potential.

What I also did is investing a low amount of money every month buying some low value coins knowing that they may disappear but if one of them hits the roof, you easily get the money back. I bought XRP when it was below 1$, went up to almost 3$, good deal. With the benefits I bought other coins of a lower value.

I was mining ELLA and UBIQ for a little while before. It was easy since I had an ETH mining rig anyway, and those two coins use the same algo. The thing is even though its easy, its kind of a waste. The best thing to do is just mine the most profitable coin for your set up, sell it every payout and buy the one you think will increase the most. A little bit more work but you'll get more coins of whatever currency you want that way.

Bringing up an oldish thread, but I found it useful. Any more info?
Ideally I'd like to find PoS coins in the early stages where mining could be profitable if the coins take off.

If you want ground floor... BTCZ is a solid project with a lot of potential. The community support behind it is awesome.

I use ZECminer (equihash) and miningspeed.com, it goes around 50$/day with my setup but ZCL is an annoying coin because before you can transfer it, you need to sync with the blockchain, it took me some time to finally access my coins.

I dedicated one of my rigs to ITNS and seeing great results. Very active community and bright future ahead. I am very happy that I got to know this project

What would be the best algo and pool to mine zclassic on with an nvidia rig for maximum steady income?

Intense coin and sumo koin are a good to mine, if you are mining cryptonight algo coins.I mined etn too, the project looks promising and the team behind it is making good effort.

u know if u are mining 250 electreum per day why don't u mine zclassic now which is about 65-70$ a day depending and then change it to electreum at the moment of this post is 19cent each will give u about maybe 340 90 more, a day isnt that a better way? mine what's profitabe per day and then change it to a coin u believe in

Gah, it's so uninspiring hearing the guys like "Yeah I'm not pulling enough with my 5000 videocards" lol
As a rookie miner who just got in the game 3 weeks ago with his old Gaming computer (2x 2G Radion HD 6950s  overclocked and undervolted and an 8 Core AMD processor,) I'm just keeping an eye on pretty much ANY mineable coin that is NOT on the first page of coinmarketcap.

Sucks that most you guys are talking about nVidia cards. 1 Being the different algos and 2, didn't you guys hear Windows finally admitted AMD is more superior? But none the less....

Any tips on some good algos for AMD cards? I'm rocking Claymore for fkn Bytecoin (still have a feeling it could reach the $1 in a couple years), Marlin for Siacoin (For now until like buddy said on the other page, the Asic miners are released in June) and using Blaggo miner for some Burstcoin HDD mining.

you cannot mine Ripple.

Pirl looks pretty good. Worth mining a bag, it is regualy top 5 in what to mine often number 1(whattomine). Strong growth. Ripple maybe, GOByte maybe, expanse maybe. It might be BTC or ETH that rockets again so it might still be worth mining a bunch of those with nicehash(BTC) or claymore(ETH).

Look here for some inspiration or reaserch ideas

What is the best pool (or pools) for mining XSH right now using the blake2s algo?  My rigs (nine nvidia 1070s) have been crashing while using the x17 algo, and I have had much stable success with the blake2s algo.

I've been using bigmine pool for blake2s, but recently the # of people mining balek2s on there has dried up.  Is there a better pool?  I've been trying the x17 algo on bsod, but I keep getting "illegal memory access" crashes with my .bat file on my rigs when I use that....

Also, none of the pools that I've found offer the ability to get email notifications when a rig is down ---- is there a good pool for mining XSH that has this feature? 

That sounds about right.  I think x17 is the best right now.  I am getting around 130 a day with 2 1080s, 2 1070s, and a 1050ti.  Keep in mind that the price has also doubled in the past 2 days, and its one of the only coins in the green today.  You can find a calculator here that will give you estimated payouts on all of the algos.  I am sticking with x17 since its not an option with nicehash.

What was your hashrate and what miner were you using?

I was mining a bunch of XSH for a few days, around 400-500 per day with nine 1070s, but now am getting less than 200 per day................this is on bigmine pool.  Is there a best pool and best algorithm to use with nvidia cards for maximizing XSH (Shield Coin) profits these days?  I see a lot of people using x17 on the bsod pool.  Is that the best route?

Also, this could be due to the price increase of XSH...............that was a good, solid coin to get in early on.  I only got in a few days ago, so missed a month or two of mining to build up a stake before the big rise.

Are there any other great prospective coins like Shield (XSH) that are in the *VERY* early mining phase, prior to any major runup?  I'm looking to get in at the ground floor before the major bull run happens. 

Hey, Im new to mining. Could you tell me how you mine so much XSH? For example what are the stuff I need in order to mine like you?

Mining xvg and electroneum, think they'll be big!

The best today is a multipool like miningpoolhub or ahashpool ( best for me )
for 1070 i recomend Nemos Miner.
Enjoy

Yah I unfortunately noticed that when I got to work this morning, did a remote desktop to my miner, and noticed it hadn't been mining for hours!      I got on their discord and they said the XSH wallet i under maintenance (due to double payments).  They also haven't paid out for the past 6 hours (haven't checked to see if they have resumed yet).  They didn't specify exactly why they left the x17 and removed the blake2s, so thats kind of weird, but I guess its somehow related to their wallet issue.

I switched over to bigmine and have gotten about 40 coins in a the last hour and 20 minutes, with a hashrate of 20 Mh/s.  If that trend continues it will be a 700 coin day, lol, but I'm guessing that won't hold.    Their stratum difficulty is all crunked up though, so if by unproductive you mean they are showing half your real hashrate, that is why.  Really all that matters is the shares you submit, the hashrate is just a guess.  When I first connected it was sending like 20 shares a second, now the difficulty is cranked up to 96 and I'm submitting about 4 shares a minute.  Also keep in mind the hashrate at bigmine is a lot less than it was at bsod.  BSOD was finding a lot of blocks.

I was mining XSH on bsod.pw pool very successfully for about 10 hours using the blake2s algo & pool port, but then it abruptly halted and it looks like the blake2s port has been removed from the bsod.pw site?

Does anyone know anything about this?  Their site doesn't have any notifications about it being removed....

I'm on the x17 algo now but it is noticeably less productive for me than the blake2s one, on the order of 15-25% less productive.  Will the blake2s algo return to bsod.pw?

I tried switching over to bigmine, but for some reason, it is just painfully unproductive for me.  I'm talking over 50% less productive.  Not sure why.....

I'm using lyra2v2 algo by the way. Here's my config line for miner:

-a lyra2v2 -o stratum+tcp://bigmine.org:4533 -u YOUR-ADDRESS -p c=XSH -i 22

Try it out. Last 24 hours still going strong with 50+ USD with 8 cards.

The QT wallet:  https://github.com/ShieldCoin/SHIELD/releases/tag/v1.1wqt

which wallet are you using for xsh?

No but you can park it in your own wallet.  Luckily I don't judge a coin's merits based on whether you can mine it at MPH or trad it at bittrex.

I see you can mine XSH with x17 which should work well on nvidia hardware.

One thing about XSH and other less known and newer options like it.  Bigger exchanges like bittrex and cryptopia don't trade it.  You can't park anything in a wallet up there or mine directly to the exchange.  And some of the bigger pools like mph for instance don't host it.

Takes some extra effort.  Might be worth it though who knows.

Thanks!  I'll give that one a try and see how it goes ---- I'd love to get some solid, steady income of XSH --- it does have a lot of potential.

My blake2s hash rate on bsod for XSH is about 34 GH/s ........hoping this yields good results....

http://bsod.pw/   I think this is where most of the hashrate is for blake2s.

What pool are you using???  Using Bigpool blake2s algo for XSH, I only mined about 70 XSH in 12 hours using nine 1070s...............

Proof? Reasoning?  I started mining XSH about 16 hours ago.  I have 2 gtx 1080s, 2 gtx 1070s, and 1 gtx 1050ti.  My blake2s hashrate is about about 20 Mh/s. So far I've mined 194 coins which is about $25.  If the trend continues I will have made $35-$40 today.  I don't think its unreasonable for someone with 8 cards to claim they make $20 more than me.  Imho there is nothing interesting about Neoscrypt beyond the sheer number of crappy masternode coins that it has spawned.  If you know of a coin that is more profitable though I'm all ears.

A pretty good thread, I really like the really really new coins that no one is touching.

ETC is showing signs of recovery and ETH is in a very positive trend, let's watch those!

I'm mining EXP for this reason, but so far nothing spectacular happened

Giving it few more months before I give up, technology looks interesting, but

I guess their PR is lacking...still, low priced, small number of coins, low market cap

You made Eurobit? This is not a promotion thread for your fork coin, its a speculative thread based on facts and opinions.

Check out EuroBit, just came out yesterday.  Can only mine with CLI atm, but gpu should be out very soon.

have a great day.

What the heck is that? Did you add your own ZCoin address inside the source code for a 20% tax?

Its cant be the truth. This coin is not the most profitable for nvidia rigs. Neoscrypt coins are much more interesting

tpruvot's ccminer, windows 10 on NVidia's

What miner do you use for LUX? Tried to mine it but I did not get the miner working.

I've been mining LUX for a while now. The difficulty was quite low for a while and it seems like a nice project

Are you sure? I am using tpruvot ccminer with no issues.

Use DJM34 fork ccminer for Zcoin guys and nanaishi ccminer 2.2 for lyrarev2. Using the wrong miner makes you lose alot of shares and profit.

can someone give links about the topics that you mention

I am now mining ETN, while the complexity is low. I hope as soon as they are launched, there will be a good pump

Lyra2v2, I think it's possible to use Blake2s too? (didn't bother to figure it out)

What algo are you using for XSH?

I'll be mining ITNS full steam on my RX rigs and XSH on NV rig. ETN used to be easy to mine, but not anymore.

Why not stick with ZCASH or ZEN  or ZCLASSIC?

I must be mining on the wrong pools or pool port or with the wrong program or something................after only pulling in about 70 XSH in 12 hours, I switched to ZCoin on SuprNova pool.

On that pool, I only mined approximately $8 worth of XZC in 12 hours...................with nine 1070s chugging away......

What is going on? 

In the  meantime, I'm going back to mining ETN, but would really like to maximize the efficiency of my nine 1070s with an nvidia-optimized coin...........

I'm going to try the spacepools ETN pool and see if I pull in more than 250 per day.

I also purchase smaller coins directly because I can't mine them all with my rig and focusing my rig power on one single coin is increasing the chance of missing the next big increase. I try to use my mining power where I have a more solid base to start with. Of course, it's all about a personal choice, I can be wrong, only future will tell.

I use CMC and look for coins that are minable and somewhere around top 300+ .

@bartjeyayo
Where did you find XSH ? It's not listed on whatomine so it's like they are missing interesting coins. Where can you trade it? Before mining a coin I always check if I can swap it against another coin or currency afterwards otherwise you're stuck with a virtual currency you can't use anywhere.

@all
what site do you use outside whatomine to find interesting coins?

I've been mining ETN with RX Vega. But now nicehash is paying more and I can't find which coin generates excess returns for Vega. Any ideas ?

It's getting harder to find cheaper coins that could go up a lot due to the recent price jumps, I did mine ETN for a while but i'm not too optimistic on its future, i've started looking into Pirl and Ubiq as there still relatively cheap and Pirl has a low MC.

zcoin is really amazing
i am mining zcoin since months when it was 9usd
now it is 130usd and i think it can go heck of the further in future

But r u shure this is the best pool? give me the link to try it.

With your hash you should mine 400 per day..


Regards

Last 24 hours the difficuly was a bit down as i can see. I still managed to get 391 XSH. Some days before that i got 40~70 XSH per hour, leaving me with 700+ XSH per day The cards are mining with 36 MH/s, nothing special really.

This would be great to achieve, but I just tried mining XSH with nine 1070s on bigmine with ccminer, blake2s algo and received less than 100 XSH for 12 hours of work.

To get 60-80 USD XSH per day, I'd need results that are more than double that ---- what is your secret?  How are you pulling in so much with just eight 1070s?

My total has rate was on the order of 33 GH/s on bigmine XSH, blake2s



My hash rate was on the order of 6-7 kH/s on the Nanopool ETN pool.  

WTF? im using 2 rx 580 (1800 h/s both) and im getting almost 90 -100 per day in https://etn.spacepools.org/ ,

What is your hasrate?

I note a diference between pool payments, Anyone note it too?

If you estimate your earnings for example in http://electroneum.vip/#  got 92.61 ETN/day
in https://easyhash.io/pools/etn   got     46.30  ETN/day
in https://etn.spacepools.org/ doesn t have paltform calc but i got the 90 per day..

Why such a big difference?  The pool fee?

Regards,

zeef

Also, what is COOCH?

I think intensecoin is a better alternative to ETN.  As someone already pointed out though, cryptonight is best mined using an AMD card.  I mine zcoin with my nvidia cards and ITNS with my processor.  Either way I think ITNS is the best cryptonight coin to mine currently.

I have a good bit of power sitting on ITNS... 3-4 cents now.

Realistically I think 10 cents or more is no issues within a short time. Beyond that I don't pretend to be qualified to speculate specifically... but it has alot of potential if the road map is followed, IMHO.

Is this the complete truth? Please post a screen shot.

I'm currently mining XSH with my 8 GPU 1070 rig and doing around 60~80 usd a day. I believe this coin still have potential to rise to 50 cent each this year. I'm using bigmine pool with ccminer 2.2 @ SMOS.

Thanks for the tip --- what would be the best coin(s) to mine with Nvidia cards?  I've got my eye on XZC but would love a much lower cost, under-the-radar coin that has more potential for exponential growth like ETN.

Are there any great low-cost coin prospects that are best mined by Nvidia cards for 2018?

You are better off mining an Nvidia optimized algorithm coins and trading for ETN than mining ETN with Nvidia as its best mined with AMD.

I think nobody has a clue, it's a question of believing in something. I mined ETN too (not much as you), but also PIRL, MONA, ZCL. They are not so small but value has increased a lot already and might still be some potential.

LOL, that's the reason for starting this post!  What are some of the best under-the-radar coins ripe for mining in 2018?

ETN is my big one, but I'm sure there are many more coins that are low on the "whattomine" price index, but could grow exponentially over the next year, making every month mined exceedingly profitable in terms of later value.

What other coins should be added to this list and why?

why do you put all your eggs in the same bag? There are plenty of coins to mine and nobody knows which one is the next big thing. You might be luck or...not.

Currently am mining about 250 Electroneum per day using nine GTX 1070s. I'm mining ETN as a speculative coin, anticipating it to go well above its present value of 8 cents per coin.

Are there better speculative coins to mine? I'm talking about coins that are in extremely early stages and at extremely low values that may not yield much mining profits today, but if accumulated could yield massive profits down the road.

For example, I would have loved to have mined plenty of XVG, XRP etc. last Spring, or some ETH in 2016.

So for 2018, what are the best low-value but high potential coins that you can pull in at high quantities per month?

Right now, I am saying:

ETN
COOCH (windows miner currently broken)

It would be great to add more to this list. Perhaps there are even better speculative coins than ETN to mine right now?
