Litecoin Mining Calculator
Network Data
The special feature: one device, two yields
Litecoin and Dogecoin share the Scrypt algorithm, and thanks to merged mining the same computing work secures both networks at the same time. In practice this means a Scrypt ASIC such as the Antminer L9 earns LTC and DOGE in parallel - and the Dogecoin share regularly makes up the larger part of the total yield. A Litecoin calculation without DOGE therefore significantly underestimates the result; this calculator always brings both sides together.
How to use the calculator
Select your Scrypt model, or freely enter hashrate in GH/s and power consumption in watts, plus your electricity price per kilowatt-hour. The calculator shows the estimated daily yield in LTC, DOGE and euros, the electricity costs and the break-even electricity price. All outputs are a calculation example with no guarantee, based on current network data - a snapshot, not a promise of earnings.
What determines Scrypt yield
Your share results from the ratio of your hashrate to the Scrypt network hashrate, multiplied by the daily payouts of both networks and their respective prices. Litecoin halves its block reward at fixed block heights - the next halving is calculated to fall in summer 2027. How the network hashrate develops is shown on the Litecoin Network Hashrate page.
Mining at home or with hosting
With Scrypt too, the electricity price decides. With low-cost energy, operating at home can be viable; for professional operation, Cryptohall24 hosts Scrypt ASICs in its own partner data centres. More on this at Mining hosting at Cryptohall24.
