It is quite amazing how far mining has come.
From obscure command line and potential graphics card driver issues, to suddenly a simple UI and auto-mine capabilities.
I'm curious if these coins will have a higher likelihood of success because of things like Minergate, or a lesser cap because they are much more widely accessible immediately.
Been running it for a week now in the background of my desktop:
I downloaded MinerGate last summer - it's got a great interface, and is ridiculously easy to use. But, just a friendly reminder - if you have a standard laptop (which, by those numbers, it looks like you do) - and you pay standard power rates, you will actually be running a deficit. (ie- your power will end up costing you more than the value of all the coins you can mine.)
So, I don't want to sound like a Negative Nancy - but just a heads up, is all. Happy Mining! :-)
hell yes they will, bytecoin is basically rockin because of minergate and it created SO much advertising for it! Bytecoin doesnt spend anymoney on ads so imagine what minergate did for it! peopel already knew Monero but it also got quite popular because of #minergate and etc and eth of course theyd ont need minergate HOWEVER if u look at the total ETH mining on minergate it oes mke up a pretty nice lil chunk of total ethereum mining in the world!
Also Monero is definitly getting free advertising with minergate just being on here, and DigitalNote also , i didnt mess with any of the non BCN, XMR, ETC or ETH coins becase i didnt know about @bittrex i oonly saw the four cins that @poloniex has, but now i know all of the coins onminergate can be sold for BTC easily on bittrex
anyway u should install it on ur android tablets if u have some old ons laying aroound, i trid installin minergate onan old laptop but it was Vista and u do neeed at least windows 7 for minergate lol i love minergate! they also have a affiliate progam when ur logged in on the main website u can see some cool data abdout the ntwork and ur cooin US dollar worth and how much uve mined so far etc and also LEAVE the little awarrds and letthem show up! they REALLy make u feel good when they give u acomplihsments for mining multiplle coins or for more than 3 days straight etc its so fun!
Here are my Achievements Ive earned from the last 3 months of mining on an old laptop from 2009 but recently for last few weeks Ive had the new HP desktop....
