What is merged mining?

Merged mining is a cryptographic mining operation where proof of work and hash rate is submitted to more than one blockchain network at the same time. The same mining activity used to solve blocks and add transactions to one blockchain can be simultaneously used to complete the same task for another blockchain.

How do I start merged mining?

To start with merged mining, you will need to find two cryptocurrencies that have the same hashing algorithms. SHA-256, Scrypt, Equihash are just some of the most popular PoW algorithms out there currently used by major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Litecoin, Zcash, etc. Popular merged mining pairings include:

Can merged mining be added or removed?

Typically, adding or removing support for merged mining requires a hard fork. In theory, merged mining can be an interesting method for a small (low-hash) blockchain to increase their security, by leveraging the hashing power of Bitcoin or another bigger chain.
