About Electroneum: http://electroneum.com/
Electroneum: More accessible and more understandable for the average person.
Even though Electroneum utilizes a tried and tested blockchain (the same blockchain model as the 9th largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization - Monero, and the
12th largest - Bytecoin 1) it has been developed to have some unique features which make it far more accessible for the average person.
Breaking down the barriers to cryptocurrency entry.
Current cryptocurrencies are new (relatively!) and exciting, but beyond the reach of your everyday person. To access cryptocurrencies you have to make or buy a G.P.U. mining rig or send copies of your passport and personal documents to a website that you have probably never heard of.
Electroneum has all the great security.
and anonymity of the leading crypto coins but it’s controlled by a free, easy to install app, which gives instant access to Electroneum with no Card details or ID!

Hard to say. I recommend to start mining and see what your hash rate is then check that on the dashboard
https://electroneum.hashvault.pro/en/#!/dashboard it has a Profit calculator you can enter your hashrate to see what you be getting for that hash rate.
Thx
