2Miners Crypto Mining Blog

Pirl is one of our favorite Ethash coins. Unlike many others, Pirl developers didn’t just copy Ethereum code, they’ve created something new by introducing masternodes into the network.

Hush is a new Equihash coin that has low mining difficulty and a high potential for growth in the future.

Unlike other cryptocurrency projects, Musicoin develops tremendously fast. MUSIC launched in February 2017, and the exciting thing is that they did not create the plan for the sole purpose of making a quick buck but instead taking advantage of another Ether fork, rewarding musicians, allowing music lovers the ability to listen to music for free!

Let’s see how to choose the right hardware and build a universal mining rig for the Dagger Hashimoto (Ethash) algorithm for such coins as Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, Callisto, Metaverse, Expanse, Equihash 144.5 (Zhash) algorithm for Bitcoin Gold, Cockoo algorithm for Aeternity, Grin, Cortex, KAWPOW algorithm for RavenCoin, BeamHash for Beam and MTP for Firo (Zcoin). Unfortunately for rig owners, ASIC miners have killed the GPU mining of Equihash algorithm in 2018. The same story has happened with Nervos CKB recently.

Before getting to Hive OS, let me start with a short preface about Windows. When computers came into my life, there was MS-DOS. Then I remember how excited I was about OS/2 by IBM, but later came Windows and ruined it all for me, so I switched to Mac OS and forgot about Windows for a long time.

Everyone has probably heard about dual mining. Let’s talk about its advantages and drawbacks.

Bitcoin and Ethereum keep rising, as well as all other cryptocurrencies and the new wave of mining is coming. All of those, who did not become miners in 2017, will undoubtedly try their luck in 2018.

Mining nature is probabilistic. Is it possible to be luckier than others? Why mining is sometimes perceived as a game?

Just simple math. Not magic. Come in, sit down, let’s make some calculations together.

Let’s make it clear what mining is and how the mining pool works. We will try to explain it in a simple “For Dummies” way.
