RandomX Mining Coins — Solo Mining Calculators
The easiest RandomX coin to solo mine right now is Dagger (XDAG) — a block roughly every under 1 min per GH/s of solo hashrate.
Every Proof of Work coin that uses the RandomX algorithm, in one place. Because they share an algorithm, the same RandomX-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 RandomX algorithm
RandomX is Monero's proof-of-work: a memory-hard algorithm that compiles and runs random programs inside a virtual machine, deliberately built to favour general-purpose CPUs and to make ASIC or GPU acceleration uneconomical. It leans on a large 2 GB dataset (or a 256 MB light-mode cache) and CPU-cache behaviour, so a modern many-core processor with fast RAM is the right tool — not a graphics card.

Frequently asked questions
What's the easiest RandomX coin to solo mine right now?
Dagger (XDAG) — a block roughly every under 1 min per GH/s of solo hashrate. This ranks RandomX coins by how much solo hashrate it takes to find one block, recalculated from live network difficulty on every update.
How long would a AMD Threadripper PRO 7995WX take to solo mine a Dagger block?
About one block every 13 min on average at 98.14 KH/s, using Dagger's live network hashrate. Real results are random (Poisson) around this mean.
What hardware mines RandomX?
RandomX coins are mined with the ASICs, 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 RandomX coins?
Yes. BackPoW computes the Poisson-based solo block-hit probability for every RandomX coin from live network hashrate, so you can see your realistic chance of finding a block.
