The major event in the mining industry in 2022 is Ethereum’s shift to the PoS consensus algorithm that has put an end to ETH mining on GPUs. Computing equipment owners have to figure out what coins would be the most profitable for mining as an alternative to ETH. One such alternative is Neoxa, targeted at the gaming industry. Let’s get to know this cryptocurrency better and learn how to mine it.

At the beginning of September, Bitmain’s Antminer E9 learned to mine Ethereum Classic (ETC), which became quite popular due to Ethereum’s switch to PoS. Bitmain managed to do that by upgrading the firmware, which was possible thanks to Ethash’s similarity to Etchash. As a rule, ASIC miners can’t change their operating algorithm. For example, ASICs built for Equihash can mine only Equihash – primarily we talk about Zcash ZEC and Horizen ZEN. In this article, we are going to cover the current situation with Equihash devices.
