Re: Mining on a Ten Year Old Motherboard

Thanks! From what I got from the link it should be fine.

I will try smOS first. Simple Miner...

Blame VoskCoin (youtube) for getting me into all of this...

$2.37 in my wallet and I'm hooked.

no probs! if you just started, also look at staking coins since its almost resources to mine comparing to pow. you can run a few pos wallets along with your gpu miner

Charlie I don't understand. I get pos and pow. Staking coins? Was that stacking? Even then I still wouldn't understand.

with pow/pos hybrid coins you can mine to your wallet, and then also stake mined coins with same wallet. staking is the way to mine on some algos. more coins in the wallet = higher chance for higher pos block reward

Ok so what I'm getting is mine pow and pos coins (or a hybrid coin) at the same time? Charlie can you give me a spoon-fed example? Which coins would be pow/pos hybrids? I don't see much on that in a google search.

Right now I am mining zPool or MPH through AM with a GTX 750Ti. Just learning all of this and planning out a first rig.

Can you point me to a resource about what you are saying?

Going down that rabbit hole now...
