Best GUI miners for cryptomining at home ⛏
Do you have an old computer laying around that is no longer in use, or have you considered beginning cryptomining with your brand new computer? I have been researching the various alternative for cryptomining at home and have compiled a list of the best GUI miners out there.
Nicehash Miner / Nicehash miner legacy
Nicehash Miner is a highly customizable GUI miner that's easy to install and use. This miner allows users to benchmark the computer to find the mining algorithm that is best suited for your computer, and also selects the most profitable algorithm for your system while mining.
Nicehash Miner recently released a new and updated GUI miner (currently at version 2.0.1.1), which is linked directly with their website, so you easily can monitor the progression of your mining on the dashboard of their website. Nicehash also allows user to sell their hashing power to other users for bitcoin.
Nicehash Miner can be downloaded from https://miner.nicehash.com.
Computta
Computta is another easy to use network mining service that features mining on multiple devices. It has a built-in dashboard in the miner to monitor the mining capacity of all your devices, and comes with an affiliate system to boost your profit.Computta also selects the best mining algorithm for your system to maximize your earning.
Computta has a ranking system, which starts at newbie and increases with earnings and affiliated people in your network.
Computta can be downloaded from https://computta.com/.
Minergate
Minergate is also an easy to use option for mining on your computer, and allows mining various altcoins like Monero and Ethereum. Minergate features a recommendation to select the cryptocurrency with the highest return for your computer setup, and allows customization of mining intensity based on the altcoins you want to mine for.
Minergate is also connected directly to the dashboard on their website to keep track of all your mining activities.
Minergate can be downloaded from https://minergate.com/downloads/gui.
Please note that most mining software only allows withdrawl after you have mined a minimum amout of cryptocurrency.
NB! Mining at maximum settings can overheat your computer, and can reduce your battery life!

I’ve recently started mining with Minergate simply because it seemed the easiest program of them all. It will never make me rich but I had some system collecting dust and I was bored so one day I just went for it.
I tried Minergate myself, and have the same experience. Thank you for commenting!
quit using minergate....
minergate is robbing your hashrate, you could earn more if you have a time to learn how to mining the coin directly from the mining pool and sell it on exchange....good luck pal....
This is a great list of GUI miners. Thanks for compiling these, because they're definitely the easiest for new miners to get started. I'd offer a couple of supplement posts to this:
First, here's a step-by-step guide to setting up Minergate.
Second, if you want to learn more about mining and mine directly to your own wallet, check out this post.
I'll definitely check out some of your other content. Thanks for sharing this!
