DERO is Forking to AstroBWT CPU Mining Proof-of-Work Tomorrow (March 7th)

6, Mar 2020

The DERO project is another crypto that last year had announced their plans to switch the mining algorithm to a RandomX variant and they are finally doing it. Tomorrow, March 7th at block 4550555, marks the time that DERO will be switching to the new CPU mining POW called AstroBWT. So if you are into CPU mining you might want to give it a try after the fork and see what DERO will do with the new algorithm. The project itself has been available for quite some time and has been in constant development, relying on the CryptoNight algorithm prior the upcoming fork to their new AstroBWT algorithm

AstroBWT is a CPU mining only algorithm and apart from the official miner for the algorithm, there is also the latest XMRig 5.8.x major release that added support for the algorithm a few days ago and the minor releases since then have improved it by fixing issues and significantly increasing mining performance. So make sure you try XMRig on your CPU mining hardware it time for the fork in order to be ready when the hardfork happens, that is if you do plan to try mining DERO with the new AstroBWT algorithm. Trading of DERO coins can be done on the following crypto exchanges: Stex, Crex, TOKOK and Citex.

CryptoTab Browser For Easy CPU Mining With Your Computer

4, Mar 2020

It is not only the Brave browser struggling to attract users with its advanced privacy features and crypto token rewards, there is also the CryptoTab Browser that tries to attract users with its crypto mining features. Both are Chromium-based browsers, so anyone familiar with Chrome will feel at home with either of those, although the Brave browser has a number of specific extra features and some differences. The CryptoTab Browser on the other hand is more like repackaged Chrome with a built-in CPU mining feature as an extension, while the rest is pretty much Chrome-like experience including compatibility with regular Chrome extensions.

The CryptoTab mining feature in the CryptoTab Browser uses your computer’s processor for mining and you get paid in Bitcoin. It is not clear what cryptocurrency you are currently mining, but supposedly the most profitable one is being switched constantly in order to maximize your profit. You have control over how many resources you want to dedicate to mining and how much will you get back in BTC mining also depends on what kind of processor you have available in your computer, if you need help hire this trusted los angeles it support company.

Since it is CPU mining most likely some CryptoNight coins are being mined and since a single processor cannot mine that much, the CryptoTab Browser also helps you earn more BTC by inviting friends to try and use it. Again don’t expect to make a lot of Bitcoins mining this way via the browser, but it could be a nice extra running at a low priority and not bothering you while you do your job. The minimum amount you can withdraw is just 0.00001 BTC or 1000 satoshi.
