I just started three days ago using my cpu to mine not asic will it be worth it? With three pc's running 2 laptops and 1 desktop i earned almost 8k satoshi :( should i continue or no?

You can calculate profit from here.

You most definitely should stop.

How can i compute if i dont actually pay for the electricity plus its solar 😂😂

You can set either kWh or power consumption to 0, that will calculate pure profit from your miner without any electricity costs.  -ck said it best, you should stop as soon as you can, not worth your time or computing power.

8k satoshi is not even enough for a simple transaction fee mate, KH/s is good for altcoins, for Bitcoin you'll

Need not GH/s but TH/s and that's just for getting started, we need the current difficulty to drop %70 for KH

To be profitable. I'd like to suggest you visit nicehash.com and check their calculator based on your CPU/GPU

To see which coin is more profitable for mining.

just enter 0 as cost
and yes,stop ruining your equipment for nothing,mining on a laptop is a perversion
mining bitcoins on anything other than ASICS is a perversion
read mining section first

as far as i know cpu mining is disabled on bitcoin core, you can't mine with that, so you are mining something else and not bitcoin

and you are wasting your time indeed, you can do better with that cpu by pointing it at some altcoin, like monero


still you are making nothig with a cpu, waste of tiem and waste of free electricity

to mine bitcoin you need a serious hardware like the antminer s9

If you got good GPU´s you can look into altcoinmining. Bitcoinmining won´t be profitable and woth it if you mine it with anything else than ASIC´s.

I have mined some altcoins with my Laptop and I make 60$ a month. (With my GTX 980m)

And if you keep the temperature under 80°C the GPU is likely to not break. And if it does after 4 years instead of 5 you can easily buy a new one with your profit.

mine at mmpool.org 

with a 2pac stick

one time cost since you have free power

most likely you will never earn back the money but you have a small chance of earning good money

All i can say it would really be useless and you will end up busting up your cpu even though you have free electricity.8k satoshi would only be eaten up by transaction fee or even not sufficient amount just like been said above. Better to stop on this mining operation and better to seek out on another altcoin which is really more worth specially on GPU mining.

You are mining BTC with CPUs? Thats a losing endeavour.

Consider mining Monero instead or actually getting some GPUs or other mining hardware. Im sure youve read this posted here everywhere but mining BTC is only for ASICs nowadays.

Assuming you abandon BTC mining on your CPU (as you should) and switch to a different coin, you will almost certainly want to visit a different sub-forum. This specific sub-forum is intended for Bitcoin mining in particular. The "sticky" threads at the top may give you some guidance.

I think this thread has run its course so I'm locking it.
