Straight, no-hype guides to mining profitably — by the people who build the HydraX miner.
GhostRider on your CPU, solo or alongside a GPU coin. Wallets, pools, setup, and how to tri-mine Pearl + modelOS (MDL) + Yerbas on one rig.
The proof-of-useful-work coin everyone's GPU is chasing — wallets, pools, miners and fees, plus honest profitability after the launch rush.
SRBMiner vs AlphaMiner vs the rest — dev fees, real side-by-side speed, and why effective hashrate (speed × fee) is the only number that matters.
Launch revenue halved in two months — the honest math on power, fees and difficulty growth, and how to run your own numbers.
A memory-hard, CPU-only coin your GPU rig can mine on the side — setup, pools, the X3D advantage, and a blunt look at the payout.
Four KawPow coins, one NVIDIA GPU, one free miner — pools, config, tuning, and how to dual-mine Monero on your CPU at the same time.
