First of all, they are Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, MOAC, and other popular coins. The program works with both Nvidia and AMD graphics cards. According to the developers, it\u2019s the fastest Ethereum\/Ethash miner with the lowest fee.<\/p>\n<p>The fee is just 0.65 percent, which means that out of 90 minutes of GPU mining, you \u201cwork\u201d for developers only for 35 seconds. For reference: Claymore\u2019s miner devfee is 1%.<\/p>\n<h2>What to Mine on PhoenixMiner. Available Algorithms<\/h2>\n<p>People mostly download Phoenixminer to <a href=\"https:\/\/2miners.com\/blog\/how-to-mine-ethereum-mining-and-profitability\/\">mine Ethereum<\/a>, but it supports other algorithms as well.

Older versions only support DAG (Directed Acyclic Graph) epoch up to 265, so you can\u2019t use them to mine Ethereum or Ethereum Classic.
