Zhash Mining Coins — Solo Mining Calculators
The easiest Zhash coin to solo mine right now is Gemlink (GLINK) — a block roughly every under 1 min per GH/s of solo hashrate.
Every Proof of Work coin that uses the Zhash algorithm, in one place. Because they share an algorithm, the same Zhash-capable hardware can mine any of them — pick a coin to calculate your solo mining block probability, expected time-to-block and revenue with your own hashrate.
About the Zhash algorithm
Zhash is the Equihash (144,5) variant used by Bitcoin Gold and BitcoinZ, sometimes called Equihash-BTG. Its higher memory footprint than Zcash's (200,9) is meant to keep the algorithm ASIC-resistant and GPU-friendly on cards with ample VRAM.

Frequently asked questions
What's the easiest Zhash coin to solo mine right now?
Gemlink (GLINK) — a block roughly every under 1 min per GH/s of solo hashrate. This ranks Zhash coins by how much solo hashrate it takes to find one block, recalculated from live network difficulty on every update.
How long would a GeForce RTX 4070 Ti take to solo mine a Gemlink block?
About one block every 17 min on average at 135.00 H/s, using Gemlink's live network hashrate. Real results are random (Poisson) around this mean.
What hardware mines Zhash?
Zhash coins are mined with the GPUs or CPUs listed in the BackPoW hardware database, ranked below by energy efficiency. Open any coin to see its estimated hashrate per device.
Can I solo mine Zhash coins?
Yes. BackPoW computes the Poisson-based solo block-hit probability for every Zhash coin from live network hashrate, so you can see your realistic chance of finding a block.
