Sorry if this is out there but I couldn't find it.
What is the best way to set the miner NOT to mine a coin?
I found out that I can do that by not selecting the algorithm of that coin, but I don't wanna miss other coins of the same algor.
I just want the miner not to mine just that one coin, not the whole algo.
Please help, or link me to the old topic of this.
I appreciate your help.

I'm assuming you are using a profit miner?  If so, which one?  If you want to exclude a certain coin on an algo, then you will have to setup a pool for every coin you want to mine at that site, and put them in a pool group.  It's a lot of work, if there's a few dozen coins in that algo.

But... if you are using a profit miner, then you are generally at the mercy of what the multi-algo pool says is most profitable.  I know that some pools like zpool can switch you to non-profitable coins in order to keep performance up, or to reach a minimum amount of coins so that they can send it to an exchange.

Can't we just go in to Options then Algorithms and uncheck the ones we don't want?
That's what I was mentioning. It's not about the algo, it's about the one coin in that algo. Let's say in Equilhash, u just want to mine Zencash, not zcash, how do u exclude zcash?
