are there any Sha256 alt coin pools they let us set the pay out as eth ? That would give me a reason to use  my old sha256 miners for a while longer or put it to use for a little longer .

remember I said lets me set my payout to eth not can I mine eth with a bitcoin miner .I know you can not mine ETH with a sha256 miner but is what I'm asking possible ? .or are  there any pools that do it yet ? .

it is possible with a scrpt miner pool i use Smiley.

these guys do you can also use your own X11 and Scrypt to mine ETH

For ETH and ETC i use https://prohashing.com/ with my Alchemist but that's a good pick but shapeshift would be a better one for me to let my A4 last a little longer by mining sha256 ALT coins that are trade able on shapeshift then trade them up for eth then send them to coinbase sense coinbase now lets you by and sell eth's for cash .


and I'm slowly building my GPU farm something i thought i would never do.

Just use shapeshift.io - I do that for all my alt mining to have it come back to me as BTC.  I typically won't even bother mining something that isn't supported by them.  Wink

So just mine on whatever pool you do like normal, but generate a BTC -> ETH wallet on shapeshift.io, and set that as your wallet on the pool you're mining with SHA256 hardware.  Done!


thanks forgot about shapeshift Smiley.
