Antminer L9 Profitability Calculator
The Bitmain Antminer L9 ships in 15, 16 and 17 GH/s batches and merge-mines Litecoin (LTC) and Dogecoin (DOGE) simultaneously on the Scrypt algorithm. The calculator below is pre-set to the L9 with live network difficulty and prices — switch between batches to compare, or check the L11 for the higher-hashrate option.
Litecoin + Dogecoin
Scrypt · merge-mined together
◆ The same Scrypt hash power mines Litecoin and Dogecoin at the same time — earnings from both are combined below. Figures reflect mining on the ViaBTC pool, the pool BORED runs on. Energy cost is your flat monthly hosting fee per miner.

Frequently asked questions
How profitable is Litecoin and Dogecoin mining right now?
Profitability depends on your miner's hashrate, your hosting or electricity cost, and the live LTC and DOGE price and network difficulty. Because Litecoin and Dogecoin are merge-mined on the Scrypt algorithm, the same hash power earns both coins at once. This calculator pulls live network data, assumes mining on the ViaBTC pool (the pool BORED runs on), and shows your estimated daily, weekly, monthly and yearly profit in USD.
What is Litecoin + Dogecoin merge-mining?
Merge-mining (AuxPoW) lets a Scrypt miner secure the Litecoin and Dogecoin networks simultaneously with no extra energy. You submit the same work to both chains, so a single miner is rewarded in both LTC and DOGE at the same time — effectively two revenue streams from one machine.
Which miners can I use for hosted Scrypt mining?
This calculator includes the hosted Scrypt miners offered by Bored Mining: the Antminer L9 (15G, 16G, 17G) and L11 (20G). Select your model and the calculator fills in the hashrate and monthly hosting fee automatically, then estimates your net profit.
How is the mining profit calculated?
Revenue is estimated from your hashrate relative to each network's difficulty, multiplied by the block reward and live coin price, minus pool and firmware fees (5% by default). Figures assume mining on the ViaBTC pool, the pool BORED runs on. We then subtract your flat monthly hosting cost to show net profit. Estimates assume constant price and difficulty and are informational only.
How do I start mining Litecoin and Dogecoin?
The simplest way is hosted mining: Bored Mining runs and maintains the hardware while you monitor hashrate, earnings and miner health from the iOS or Android app. Pick a miner in the calculator, check the estimated returns, then start mining with Bored Mining.
