- XPM PrimeCoin- for now cpu-only.
- QRK Quark - Sifcoin clone. CPU only.
- SIC Sifcoin- CPU only.
- CL Copperlark- CPU only.
......
- LTC Litecoin - second only to BTC in numbers of places accepted and market volume, faster than BTC, CPU friendly, GPU -
unfriendly For the test, I started mining on 3 powerful servers (Xeon X5570) at once. Mined 0.03LTC in an hour.
A counter question: do cryptocurrencies exist so that you can calculate them in your mind? Here is happiness: I came to the store, thought for a while, figured it out in my mind, and bought bread.
The complexity of the calculation affects the cost: what's the point in an easily calculated currency - after all, what can be counted on the CPU can certainly be calculated even faster on the video card.
ProtoShare (PTS) is also only mined on cpu, but it’s already difficult, so 50% of the currency reserves were mined in almost a month of appearance.
