I've been searching for a definitive answer to the above question, but somehow only seem to find semi-true statements (according to replies to these statements), or very outdated answers (for example this question on the Bitcoin SE).

So I hope you can help me out here:

What is the achievable hashrate of the Raspberry Pi 2 and Raspberry Pi 3?

Clarification: I do not want to know if it's feasible to mine using the Raspberry Pi.

My Raspberry Pi 3 Seemed to mine at about 400(ish) kilohashes per second.

This is on Einsteinium with the algorithm called Scrypt. I am running a program called m-minerd and am mining on the pool emc2.suprnova.cc. I have set this program to mine on all four cores at 100 percent!

If you want a more profitable coin to mine try mining the Magi coin. The official website is here. Magi is made to only be cpu mined and is more profitable for small devices. Here is a good mining pool. Hope this helps!

I'm running a Raspberry Pi 3B+ Monero miner 24/7 (no power costs so profitable more or less...)... I'm getting ~10H/s. Monero is CPU mineable so 10H/s isn't ver y bad at all... If I calculate my earnings on webpages like this one it seems like I would earn about 3.50$...

Hope I could help! :)

https://alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculator. You will need to calculate that question yourself. The cost of mining and hash rate is unique to every miner. If this is endevor is a must for you I suggest you look at pooling if that is still an option. Keep in mind the calculations that are trying to be solved to actually get any bitcoin are very complex and take alot of power That needs to be apart of the equation. Join a bit coin forum they can help as most of the users are currently mining.
