What to mine for 2060, the most profitable algorithm
Let’s see how profitable mining of ether and other cryptocurrencies is in 2060.
| Algorithm | Cryptocurrency | Mining speed RTX 2060 | Hashrate GTX 1070 | Hashrate GTX 1060 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cuckaroo 29 Gh/s | Grin | 5.6 | 4.4 | 3 |
| Eqihash 144_5 sol/s | Bicoin Gold | 54 | 56 | 39 |
| BeamHashIII h/s | Beam | 20 | 17 | 10 |
| Eqihash 192_7 sol/s | Zero | 22 | 23 | 2 |
| ProgPow Mh/s | Bitcoin Interest | 15.7 | 12 | 9 |
| BCD Mh/s | Bitcoin Diamond | 24.1 | 19.9 | 16 |
| KawPow | Ravencoin | 18 | 14 | 9 |
| TimeTravel10 Mh/s | Bitcore | 34 | 26.5 | 16.8 |
| Tensority Mh/s | Bytom | 8.7 |
As expected, the RTX 2060 in mining could only be surpassed 1060… Compared to the 1070 model, there is no big difference in the production rate, and in some algorithms it even lags behind. There are materials on the network in which even lower indicators of this video card are published.
Some, it is not clear why, test the video card only at the factory parameters, while others faithfully copy the numbers and then consider what mining income brings in 2060 and why so little. There are quite a few tests on YouTube and on the forums of crypto-raiders that clearly confirm the numbers indicated in this article. However, even with full overclocking, the situation has not fundamentally changed.
So, what to mine for 2060, a list of profitable crypto coins. Profit per day in US dollars excluding electricity costs:
- Nimiq (Argon2d-NIM) – $ 0.93;
- Sero (ProgPow) — 0.92$;
- Beam (BeamHashIII) – $ 0.9;
- Ravencoin (KawPow) – $ 0.89;
- Swap (Cuckaroo29s) — 0.84$;
- Zeal (ZelHash) – $ 0.83;
- Ethereum (Ethash) — 0.79$;
- Zcoin (MTP) – $ 0.77;
- Zclassic (EquihashZero) — 0.72$;
- Ryo (CryptoNightGPU) — 0.71$;
- Vidulum (EquihashZero) — 0.71$;
- Zano (ProgPowZ) — 0.68$;
- Aeternity (CuckooCycle) — 0.67$.
As the mining calculator shows WhatToMine, the Ethash algorithm brings the minimum income, there are more profitable pools. Greens have always worked better on xx and zikesh. Run dual mining at 2060 only with Handshake coin (HNS).
It makes no sense to turn on the traditional dual on claymore, you will only get increased heat dissipation, and not benefit. The hashing speed for the handshake algorithm (hns / bl2bsha3) is almost independent of the device’s memory performance, and therefore the HNS coin can be mined in dual with digital currencies that use memory intensively, but weakly use the GPU core. The most convenient way is to run Handshake (HNS) dual mining in NBMiner (version 27.0 or higher). Sample batch file:
@echo off :loop setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0 setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100 setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1 setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 nbminer -a hns_ethash -o stratum+tcp://hns.f2pool.com:6000 -u hsWALLET.dm -do ethproxy+tcp://cn.sparkpool.com:3333 -du ethWALLET.dm echo restart miner... goto loop
At the current Handshake rate, you will not get serious profit. So this information is laid out for the purpose of acquaintance.
As for the list of profitable coins, if not in a week, then in a month it will be completely different. The market situation is constantly changing, new projects are emerging and crypto-mining software is being improved.
