Best cpu coin right now is monero... but it won't last long as someone is developing extremely fast GPU miner for it..
XMR was good for CPU until the GPU miner came out. And then the price crashed and no longer worth the hassle mining

The stupidity of people here who automatically assume that CPU mining will automatically destroy your PC is too damn high.
Running your CPU at 90-95% with decent cooling (i.e. doesn't go about 80 Celsius - and stays in the mid-70s most of the time) won't noticeably hurt your laptop / desktop's lifespan.

I used to mine quazar coin since day 1 using my i7 CPU, but then I stopped mining as the difficulty keep rising. More discussion about CPU mining can be found here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/cpu-onlymostly-coins-775193
Theres only one coin that you can mine with cpu and make bank - MONERO.
CPU/GPU mining at the moment is 1/1. Mine while it lasts..

Try with the Jackpot coin, it should be one of the best coins you can mine with the CPU at the moment.
Nah, GPU miner is better for jackpot coin..

Don't know about profit but u will surely lose ur pc if u mine with it..
I think it's useless to use the CPU to mine, I fear we are rapidly damaged the CPU, is it better to buy a tool, or use the VPS for cloudmining
You are right it's useless and it can damage your your CPU too if you tweak the settings too hard.

Currently GPUs can mine on both SHA-256 and Scrypt so sadly there aren't any CPU-only coins.. Unless someone would like to make one up?
There are other algos beyone sha and scrypt.
Some coins claim they are CPU only, never stopped to verify if it is true or not
Sure there are other Algos but are there any coins based on any other than SHA and Scrypt?

You will find few and far between. Most cpu coins are able to be done with GPU's (don't want to say all becuse i could be wrong). I would do some roi as normally these day's most will run more electricity then you make on CPU / GPU.
That's what I mean - there have been a lot of development around 11x, 13x, 15x for GPUs and ASIC developments for SHA-256 and Scrypt, but what about CPU mining? Is it just completely unprofitable to CPU? Or is there an algo I'm missing?
Edit - Maybe a better way to answer my question is with a question; 'Is anyone CPU mining? And if so, what coin/algo are you mining?'

For a long time, Primecoin was 'the' CPU coin along with a few others. But, I haven't really seen much as far as the 'most profitable' cpu coins to mine; its all ASICs and GPUs.
Are there any coins worth mining with just CPU?

I think none? Maybe I'm wrong but it can't be profitable. Try to find here something that will suite you (http://www.coinwarz.com/cryptocurrency).
