Im a newb too but wouldn't the general concept be the same as mining alt coins? Why discourage? ??? Title: Re: Could someone make a thread explaining mining to newbs like me. Post by: Daisy14 on August 13, 2016, 06:36:23 AM If you want to venture in something, you have to ignore the discouraging words you hear from people.
At the moment, mining ETC/ETH makes more profit - unless you have cheap electricity costs: less than $0.10/Kwh. Title: Re: Could someone make a thread explaining mining to newbs like me.

Why discourage? ???The concept is basically the same. The implementation is different. Mining an alt coin with a GPU is achievable. Mining bitcoins with an ASIC is a big step up from that. I would prefer that someone's first experience not be trying to mine bitcoins and wasting time and money. There are lots of things going on in Bitcoin. Do some research. For example, did you know that you can buy stuff on Amazon at a big discount using Purse.io? |
