dave_boo Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 (edited) With ASIC miners coming online chasing crypto currency is a bit of a fool's errand using commodity hardware.

Sent from my GT-N7100 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app could be right if it is your primary objective but for me it would be just backgrounded to other things so no extra cost/outlay only potential gain from unused/excess resources. when i am just playing local or even some online games my computer resources are mostly wasted, this would possibly show a return from that waste..

DrTuner Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 It's not totally free, mining causes CPU/GPU load and it'll show on the electric bill. The "gold rush" is already over. You can use this to count if it's worth it: http://www.bitcoinx.com/profit/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can use this to count if it's worth it: http://www.bitcoinx.com/profit/ yes something like that is needed but that one outputs nonsense. change nothing but the value of the coins a few times and see for yourself.

raro Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I heard someone saying (and please excuse my nativity know nothing about bit coins) that every transaction gets slightly more complicated caused by the algorithm of the bitcoin. Wouldn't this make this currency impossible to handle at a certain point? Sent from my GT-N7100 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aqua97 Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 a linux miner machine :P cool... but worth only if you work in a datacenter as this datacenter OWNER or top engineer who has access to all servers... installing a background miner that will use only idle CPU would be awesome... i guess some people already do it. one of my friends bought a house in Spain for money earned in btc (btc skyrocketed to 1000$ per 1. couple months ago. i was stupid to sell my coins when price was 200$ :( though i still earned a lot by buying them for 30$, i could get 5 times more :P ... if only i could know crazy chinese will jump on it and rise the price to 1k$ :D ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aqua97 Posted August 5, 2014 Share Posted August 5, 2014 no point mining on one or 10 'home pc' and laptops. dont even try. 1 year of mining will give you maybe 5$. :D lol only if you have ASICs you can do some $ now. even older ASICs (that is 10x-20x more effective than best GPU\CPU pc) can't mine enough to cover electricity cost. something like 0.001 btc a day. only new and strong ASIC farms give results.
