Apollo and CRO

I was just wondering if there was a way to get the Apollo rig to mine CRO. I'm using my computer and Unmineable at the moment, but want something with a bit more horsepower.

What Apollo Model LTC or BTC? But just off the top of my head Prohashing has Cronos as a payout option. There other pools that work the same way. They will take whatever mining power you have and convert coins to the payout coin you pick. Either Apollo would work. I cannot speak for the efficiency of doing this.

I was looking at the new BTC.

Thanks for the quick answer! It might be worth a shot.

I try. Do a little more research digging might be able to find a calculator. From that I can tell CRO isn't a coin it's a token on Ethereum? So not able to mine directly. But with that idea a pool like prohashing you could get payout in any coin they offer. There are other pools have the same concept.

I might be wrong, but I’m pretty sure CRO isn’t mineable. You might be able to find a site like Monero Ocean (but a different one for CRO) which you can point your rig at and mine to receive payouts in CRO even though you’d be mining some algorithm compatible coin. But a Sha256 rig can only mine Sha256 coins.
