Read moreBuying and setting graphics cards up is not enough to start mining. At all times, you need to know a lot about different cryptocurrencies: their mining difficulty, overall network hash rate, and even potential hacking issues. 2CryptoCalc helps you save time and find the most profitable cryptocurrencies for mining. Let’s see how to use this tool to its full potential, with screenshots and examples.
Read moreIn October 2020, Ethereum Classic miners got a pleasant surprise. ETC will enable cryptocurrency mining on 3GB GPUs (relatively old models). Plus, ASICs as well as NiceHash will not support ETC mining anymore. All of it is going to be possible thanks to the Thanos hard fork at the end of November. Let’s see what to expect from it.
Read moreThe 2Miners pool lists 19 cryptocurrencies with 10 thousand online members. There is Ethereum with at least 4 thousand miners, Ravencoin, Bitcoin Gold, Zcoin, Ethereum Classic, and other popular cryptocurrencies. However, the pool often gets requests about adding Zilliqa that supports dual mining (mining two cryptocurrencies at the same time). We decided to put its profitability to test.

Read moreMid-2020 wasn’t the best time for Ethereum Classic. The network suffered from several 51% attacks in August and September. As a result, miners lost a lot of their earnings. ETC took action by decreasing the DAG file size. This way, even 3GB GPUs can mine ETC and the hash rate is significantly higher. But this is not the only positive change. Let’s see what to expect from ETC in the future.
