Dual Mining

Memory-hard algorithms like Etchash leave GPU compute units partly idle. Dual-mining software (lolMiner, GMiner) fills that headroom with a second, compute-bound coin — historically ETC+KAS or ETC+ALPH pairings — raising total revenue 20–60% for a disproportionately small power increase.

The economics shift as coins migrate to ASICs (Kaspa already has; Alephium is following). Check current pairings in your miner's documentation, watch card temperatures — dual loads stress VRAM — and verify the combined power draw still beats single-mining profit at your electricity rate.
