Frequently asked questions
What coins can I mine with the GeForce RTX 3060?
The GeForce RTX 3060 (GPU) can mine 56 proof-of-work coins on BackPoW, including Kerrigan-EqZero, Quantus, Pearl, Satoxcoin. Each coin shows its estimated hashrate, daily revenue and solo block-hit probability.
How profitable is the GeForce RTX 3060 for mining?
Profitability of the GeForce RTX 3060 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 GeForce RTX 3060?
Right now the single highest-earning coin for the GeForce RTX 3060 is Pearl (PRL), at about $0.8542/day gross (gross, before electricity). BackPoW re-ranks every mineable coin daily using live network difficulty and prices, so this can change.
Can the GeForce RTX 3060 solo mine?
Yes. BackPoW computes the GeForce RTX 3060'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 GeForce RTX 3060 take to solo mine one Pearl block?
About one Pearl (PRL) block every 8.2 years on average at the GeForce RTX 3060's rated hashrate, using Pearl's live network hashrate. Real results are random (Poisson) around this mean, recalculated every update.
Where can I solo mine with the GeForce RTX 3060?
You can solo mine Pearl with the GeForce RTX 3060 by connecting to verified solo stratum gateways such as herominers.com, pool.kryptex.com, grandpool.io. These pools forward 100% of the block reward directly to your wallet upon discovery (minus standard pool fees).
What is the breakeven electricity rate for the GeForce RTX 3060?
The GeForce RTX 3060 breaks even at approximately 0.3559 USD/kWh. If your electricity tariff is below this threshold, mining is profitable at current coin prices and network difficulty. Above this rate, power costs exceed daily revenue and the miner operates at a loss. BackPoW recalculates this figure every update.
