Quantum (QRL) is another crypto project that has recently successfully forked to the RandomX algorithm, the project initially launched with CryptoNight algorithm. Now with the fork to RandomX mining QRL is viable only with CPUs as although there are GPU miners available, the performance of CPU mining of RandomX, especially with the latest AMD Ryzen processors is significantly better in terms of performance and efficiency compared to GPUs. Of course the latest hardfork brings some additional new features to the Quantum project besides the switch to the RandomX algorithm that you might want to check out as well if interested. There are a number of RandomX miners out there available for you to use for mining Quantum such as XMRig, SRBMiner-Multi and XMR-STAK-RX. If you are looking for an exchange where you can trade QRL, then Bittrex is probably the one to go for, although it might not have the largest trading volume.

Upcoming Popular Crypto Coins Halvings This Year
14 Apr2020
Everybody is waiting for the most important Bitcoin (BTC) halving that is happening in a bit less than a month from now, but this is not the only popular crypto coin that is going to have its halving this year (4000 blocks remaining), tough without a doubt the most anticipated one for sure. Bitcoin started at 50 BTC per block, then the first halving after 4 years reduced it to 25 coins, the second halving in another four years further reduced it to 12.5 BTC (the current block reward) and the upcoming next one will reduce he reward in half once more to 6.25 BTC per block. F2Pool has a list of upcoming halvings for this year with interesting information about the coins listed that you might want to check out if interested and below you can find a bit more information about what other popular crypto coins will have their halvings by the end of the year.
In just 12 days the closest upcoming halving or more specifically block reward reduction is for DASH where the current block reward of 1.55 DASH will be reduced to 1.43933 DASH after about 7100 more blocks expected to happen near the end of this month. In 18 days there will be a halving of PascalCoin (PASC) from 50.0 PASC down to 25 PASC per block, then there is Bitcoin Diamond (BCD) halving in about 107 days with block reward dropping from the current 125 BCD to 62.5 BCD. ZelCash (ZEL) will follow next in about 110 days with block reward going down from the current 112.5 ZEL to 56.25 ZEL, then Monacoin (MONA) will also half from 25 MONA to 12.5 MONA in about 139 days. Zcoin (XZC) also has a halving this year in 161 days with block reward going down from 14 XZC to 7 XZC, Callisto (CLO) will half in 182 days, then Zcash (ZEC) halves in 216 days and then in 229 days Horizen (ZEN).

The latest SRBMiner-MULTI CPU and AMD GPU Miner version 0.4.3 has added support for the Tellor (TRB) algorithm for GPU mining, though not all mining pols are apparently supported as the miner is compatible with trb.uupool.cn and other pools that use the same stratum implementation, but will not work on hashpool.com. Do note that Tellor (TRB) can also be mined using the latest NBMiner 29.0 that also supports Nvidia GPU mining. However GPU mining for this algorithm may already be not be profitable for GPUS having in mind that the Tellor algorithm has recently been made available for Blackminer FPGA miners. Below you can find the full changelog for the latest SRBMiner-MULTI and a download link.
SRBMiner-MULTI CPU & AMD GPU Miner 0.4.3 changelog:
– Added ‘tellor’ algorithm (trb.uupool.cn compatible stratum)
– Improvements on ‘minotaur’ algorithm
– Guided setup fixed & simplified
– To download and try the new SRBMiner-MULTI CPU and AMD GPU Miner 0.4.3 Beta…
