2Miners Crypto Mining Blog

Ethereum is the top altcoin. It is a blockchain based platform for decentralized applications created by Vitalik Buterin and also the second best cryptocurrency in the world. Let’s talk about Ethereum mining, ETH profitability, and the future of the project.

Cryptocurrencies are on the rise all around the world. Mining power grows by leaps and bounds, which causes serious environmental concerns. Cryptocurrency enthusiasts create more and more PoS-based blockchains that in contrast to PoW operate without wasting an enormous amount of electrical power.

On May 3, Bitmain announced the release of Antminer Z9. The ASIC miner works on Equihash, so in theory, it can be used to mine Zcash and other Equihash-based coins. In this article, we will talk about ZEC mining on GPUs. Here you’ll find information about the currency, its mining, wallets, as well as the future of the project.

Ethereum Classic appeared in June 2016 after accounts in the DAO were hacked. Ethereum hard fork was supposed to prevent hackers from moving the assets to another account, but some users rejected the fork considering potential human intervention in the blockchain operation unacceptable. As a result, ETC came into existence.

“Transaction Failed – Out of Gas. What does it mean? What to do?” — these and other similar questions are frequently asked by Ethereum users. Gas, Gwei, contracts – indeed, it’s all overcomplicated. Let’s get into it!

We are proud to present our US servers. We’ve spent a lot of time to find the best solution and now it is ready. 4 coins are already working: ETH, ETC, EXP, Music. Both PPLNS and SOLO. 8 pools in total. It’s easy to switch to these pools. You just need to add “us-” in front of the URL. Port is the same. For example for Ethereum pool: “eth.2miners.com:2020” -> “us-eth.2miners.com:2020”

Expanse is a unique coin. The primary goal of its creators was not to take advantage of investors and earn a fortune but to help others. As a result, the Ethereum fork gave birth to an open blockchain platform where anyone can create decentralized applications. Let’s talk about this coin and its mining.

If you want to start mining some rare coin or after 15 minutes on the pool you still have a zero balance, this tutorial is for you.

Most miners choose Nicehash for mining because they want to get rewarded in bitcoins regardless of what they use – ASIC or a GPU mining rig.  Usually, GPUs are used to mine Ethereum, Zcash or their alternatives, which means that miners get rewarded in ETH, ZEC etc. Nicehash pays in bitcoins even if you mine with GPUs. Getting paid in bitcoins is believed to be more profitable and stable.

Sooner or later every miner wants more GPUs and one big mining rig. Indeed, it is very convenient to have all the graphics cards on one motherboard – you can save on the hard drive, RAM, and CPUs.
