RE: CPU & GPU Mining from your laptop

in #altcoin7 years ago

I forgot to mention, mining is often not profitable in the short term, but if one of these coins becomes worth $10,000 USD or $20,000 USD - you will end up looking back saying "Why didn't I mine when I could" even if it costs you. But always the choice and risk is yours to make. If you have attempted it, at least you understand the concept of it and I think thats whats truly important.

Sort:  

If it costs you more (energy) to mine, you can also buy the coins with the amount you would have spend on energy bills

thats definitely true, but depending where you live, for example in the US, that can be seen as a taxable property vs mining a taxable income. There are still many factors to weigh in.
