What is
GPU‑майнинг?
GPU‑майнинг — добыча криптовалюты на видеокарте (GPU), часто доступная обычным пользователям.
В алгоритмах, рассчитанных на GPU, важны VRAM, энергоэффективность и стабильность. GPU‑майнинг обычно более доступен, чем ASIC‑майнинг, и может лучше распределять участие в безопасности сети. Доходность зависит от цены актива, сложности, электричества и настроек.
Key Points
- Доступен на потребительском оборудовании
- Важно соотношение хешрейт/ватт
- Следите за температурой и стабильностью
- Доходность меняется со сложностью и ценой
Use Cases
1
Участие в безопасности PoW‑сетей
2
Получение вознаграждений за добычу
3
Поддержка децентрализации майнинга

Common questions about this topic
What can I do with Ergo?
Ergo supports a full ecosystem: trade on Spectrum DEX, use SigmaUSD stablecoin, mix transactions with ErgoMixer, collect NFTs on SkyHarbor, mine with GPUs, lend/borrow on DuckPools, bridge to other chains via Rosen, and build dApps with ErgoScript. It's a complete platform for decentralized finance and applications.

What is Autolykos and how does it work?
Autolykos is Ergo's memory-hard Proof-of-Work algorithm designed for GPU mining. It requires significant RAM (currently ~2.5GB), making ASIC development uneconomical. Autolykos v2 (current version) allows pool mining while maintaining ASIC resistance. The algorithm promotes decentralization by keeping mining accessible to consumer hardware.

Why is Ergo sustainable long-term?
Ergo is designed for 100+ year sustainability through three pillars: Autolykos mining (fair, ASIC-resistant), NiPoPoWs (efficient light clients), and storage rent (prevents bloat, funds miners). Unlike chains that depend on infinite growth, Ergo's economics work even with stable or declining usage.

What is the best GPU for Ergo mining?
For Ergo mining, GPUs with high memory bandwidth perform best. Popular choices include NVIDIA RTX 3060 Ti, 3070, 3080, and AMD RX 6800 XT. Minimum 4GB VRAM required. The best GPU depends on your budget, electricity cost, and availability. Efficiency (hashrate per watt) matters more than raw hashrate.
