Frequently asked questions
What coins can I mine with the Goldshell KD5?
The Goldshell KD5 (ASIC) can mine 1 proof-of-work coins on BackPoW, including Kadena. Each coin shows its estimated hashrate, daily revenue and solo block-hit probability.
How profitable is the Goldshell KD5 for mining?
Profitability of the Goldshell KD5 depends on the coin, its network difficulty, the coin price, your electricity cost and pool fees. BackPoW ranks every mineable coin by daily, monthly and annual profit so you can pick the best target.
What is the best coin to mine with the Goldshell KD5?
Right now the single highest-earning coin for the Goldshell KD5 is Kadena (KDA), at about $0.3330/day gross (gross, before electricity). BackPoW re-ranks every mineable coin daily using live network difficulty and prices, so this can change.
Can the Goldshell KD5 solo mine?
Yes. BackPoW computes the Goldshell KD5's solo block-hit probability per coin using a Poisson model based on live network hashrate, so you can gauge your realistic chance of finding a block.
How long would the Goldshell KD5 take to solo mine one Kadena block?
About one Kadena (KDA) block every 18 min on average at the Goldshell KD5's rated hashrate, using Kadena's live network hashrate. Real results are random (Poisson) around this mean, recalculated every update.
