 Also what are the best software miners on Linux for Nvidia? Just to mine, not win.

 Nicehash is great. Mines whatever, pays out in bitcoin, withdraw with lightning  (fee for me is usually less than 10 sats). Only cpu mining is really worth it, but my cpu has been doing 8K sats a day recently lol

 Ah. Thanks. I would like to calculate hashes verifying transactions for my own Bitcoin node. Already running the node on start 9. I would like to use Nvidia graphics card I have when not using for something else. What miner can I instal to calculate hashes on a Nvidia card?

 No its just going to be extremely electricity inefficient. Its like mining with a CPU on a chain that GPU mining is normalized (actually its way worse than that)

 You don't mine Bitcoin with GPUs. You need an ASIC

 Thanks. Mining for heater. So efficiency doesn’t matter. Can you share some links to some open source software that still work for mining both on cpu and gpu?
