Is the RandomX only algorithm to go?
I'm bit lost with some of many stuff around the mining. I'm using xmrig to mine monero with rx/0.
This is by default.
As far as I was able to understand, the pool has to support algorithm I want to ...

Monero address prefix creation algorithm
As I read in the monerobook:
uint64_t const CRYPTONOTE_PUBLIC_ADDRESS_BASE58_PREFIX = 18;
Monero's main network uses '18' to indicate a primary address (this is
why Monero primary addresses begin ...

What's the difference between the CryptoNightR and RandomX algorithms?
My understanding is that CryptoNightR randomly creates different calculations for each block, and that RandomX does the same, but using a system where any bytecode can be translated into a calculation....

Multiple CPU miners with low hashrate vs single CPU miner with high hashrate
I looked at the Monero algorythm (unfortunately not fully understood) and wonder if I could increase the probability of hitting a block with multiple CPU miners (low hashrate - for example 10 x 200h/s)...
