VerusHash algorithm added to NiceHash

For Buyers of Hashpower

VerusHash has been implemented on our stratum servers and is now available on our hashpower marketplace. You can now purchase hashpower for mining Verus coin (VRSC).

Verus is a hybrid blockchain based on both Proof of Work and Proof of Stake. It is a zero-knowledge technology, privacy-oriented project working to offer Public Blockchains as a Service (PBaaS). Verus Coin introduces a new consensus algorithm called Proof of Power, a 50% PoW / 50% PoS algorithm, which aims to solve weaknesses in other PoS systems. Verus uses VerusHash 2.0, a quantum-resistant hash algorithm that aims to bridge the performance gap between CPUs, GPUs, and FPGAs. You can read more about it here.
