Bitcoin Gold, get ready to mine it with your GPUs
Before the imminent bifurcation of Bitcoin only 2 days (October 25), we are preparing to mine Bitcoin Gold. This time with graphics cards (GPU) and algorithm Equihash, one of the most powerful and safe.
But what is Bitcoin Gold really?
Bitcoin Gold is a bifurcation of Bitcoin’s blockchain that will occur on October 25, 2017. At the height of the predetermined block, Bitcoin Gold miners will begin to create blocks with a new algorithm. It is also POW, work test until all blocks are completed. Therefore, it will be what will provoke a bifurcation of the chain Bitcoin. Bitcoin’s blockchain will continue unaltered, but a new branch of the blockchain will separate from the original chain. The new branch is a different blockchain, with the same transaction history as Bitcoin to the bifurcation.
Then it diverges from it and as a result of this process, a new criptomoneda will be born.
Equihash algorithm, the most powerful and safe to mine with GPU
It is not surprising that the development team has chosen this algorithm. It is, to this day, the safest, most powerful and private of all to date. Ethereum is worth mentioning is already using its technology to perfect its transactions and put the layer of security and anonymity that it lacked.
ZenCash, Zcash, Komodo, BitcoinZ and Zclassic are crypto coins that we were already mining with graphics cards for their great efficiency and profitability. AMD and Nvidia are the two brands of graphics processing with which we can currently work this algorithm. His generous hash and minesweak stability have made him the hero for his ease of setup and performance. In addition, it is modern and preferred by new crypto coins that are emerging.
The mine guidance data are:
AMD rx 580 8Gb 310 solutions / s with 160 watts of consumption. approx
Nvidia 1060 6Gb 315 solutions / s with 110W of consumption. approx
