Users wishing to upgrade their computer know firsthand about the shortage of video cards. One of the reasons for this phenomenon is miners who buy video adapters almost at the stage of delivery to stores. A similar fate may await SSD-drives.
So, the developer of the BitTorrent protocol and the cryptocurrency of the same name, Bram Cohen, has developed a fresh algorithm, reports Sina. With its help, you can mine Chia cryptocurrency using SSD drives instead of video cards.
True, his method has a couple of limitations. First, the storage should be about 10 TB. In this case, the device for mining must be connected to the Internet via a high-speed connection.
According to the publication, in order to recoup the investment, miners will have to spend about 2 years mining Chia.
