How to Mine Cryptocurrencies with BetterHash

BetterHash is a cryptocurrency miner that takes care of everything: selecting the best-performing coins, switching between algorithms and even creating a wallet in case you don’t have one. In short, BetterHash is a good tool for entrant users.

(Some miners can be incompatible with your rig. For example, in our case, we can only use the Cryptonight and the EWBF miners because for the Equihash miner only CUDA devices with SM 5.0 and higher are supported and for the claymore ethereum miner, it is no longer possible to mine with 2gb cards)
