No. Only ASIC mining is powerful enough for Bitcoin mining.

What you can do is try mining altcoins, but it won't be that profitable if you need to pay your energy bills. If interested, you can simulate your possible earnings here: https://www.nicehash.com/profitability-calculator

Scratch That Cheesy  I got it!
What was the issue? Probably a silly mistake, which is why you should have watched the video I linked above.

Another question:

So my Litecoin (sitting at an exchange) can be sent to my Ledger Wallet Bitcoin?
No. Bitcoin =/= Litecoin.

For that, you need to install the Litecoin app by using the 'Ledger Manager' chrome extension. Then, you can use the 'Bitcoin wallet' chrome extension to view your Litecoin wallet (BTC and LTC use the same chrome extension. For other coins, it will be different). The addresses will obviously be different.

Just select and open the LTC app on your Ledger display while you have the 'Bitcoin wallet' chrome extension opened (basically the same thing, but with the LTC app instead).
12323  Economy / Reputation / Re: A Famous Bounty Manager Has Multi account on: June 26, 2018, 10:38:08 PM
Is having multiple accounts really that bad? From what I see, it's not like he abused his power and participated in bounties ran by himself. He doesn't seem to be abusing any bounties. I would hardly consider him famous.

I have the "no multiple account" rule in campaigns I manage, but it's only banning people from participanting in the campaign with multiple accounts. I have the account DarkStar_alt; does that make me not reputable?
IMO, if you have multiple accounts, you should publicly disclose that you own them. The user above, used both accounts to join bounties, so he is clearly looking for money.

What guarantee does he have that he doesn't have more accounts and that he isn't using them to milk money with his own bounties?
12324  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Is Ledger Nano S really better than a free paper wallet? on: June 26, 2018, 07:30:21 PM
Have you tried with a different cable?

Also, you should contact Ledger's support at https://support.ledgerwallet.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

The advertisement makes it look like everything will work easily.
Normally, it will. I have a Nano S and it goes instantly whenever I connect it to my PC, and while in the Bitcoin chrome app, unlock it and select the BTC app.

Your case is an exception and not the rule.
12325  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Is Ledger Nano S really better than a free paper wallet? on: June 26, 2018, 05:50:26 PM
Because if you lose the Ledger device, all your coin is gone and cannot be retrieved?
That's what the backup seed is for.

If Google Chrome has some issue with your computer, you have to buy another whole computer just to use the Ledger?
No. You can use your Nano S with Electrum to manage your Bitcoin wallet and MyEtherWallet for Ethereum. And how would a computer have an issue with Chrome, which can only be solved by buying a whole new computer?

Or can you use a public computer to access with Ledgers?
You can.

And isn't Google typically intrusive with peoples information, if so, why did Ledger choose Google Chrome as the only way to operate the wallets?
A new wallet software that doesn't require Chrome will be released next month (July 9th). They will also release a mobile wallet in a few months.

The paper wallets do not require these complicated set-ups and there are no snafu's involved.
Plus if you lose your paper wallet you can just reference a backup paper wallet, but with Ledger's if you lose the device it is all gone for ever
Wrong. You can, should and need to backup your Ledger with the 24 word seed. Plus, you can't spend your coins from a paper wallet that easily without compromising them.

Plus a paper wallet is easier to conceal than this high tech looking Ledger thing.
You didn't get it what makes the Nano S different than every other wallet.

Plus you can just email the paper wallet address to yourself, for free, and have a digital copy right there.
Or you can just use your exchange! Why care about security, right? Cheesy

Plus if you drop a ledger in water or some other issue like that (fire, damage), your coin is gone for ever.
Again, no.

I can not even get the Ledger to work for me
I honestly don't see how. Have you tried Youtube? There is no easier thing than watching someone explain everything to you step-by-step.

I recommend this video: Ledger Nano S - Setup and Guide (Hardware wallet)
12326  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: Browser Support command in Ledger Nano S on: June 26, 2018, 04:43:36 PM
Are you sure? This looks extremely unlikely to happen. AFAIK the option only shows in the Ethereum app.

Open the ETH app -> press the right button to select "Settings" -> both buttons to open it -> press the right button to select "Browser Support" -> both buttons to open it -> right button to select "Yes" -> press both buttons to select it.
12327  Other / Meta / Re: Banned account says 7 days but is banned from January on: June 26, 2018, 04:33:54 PM
It's not up to you to decide. You broke the rules and got banned for this. End of the story.

We are very welcoming to new members that TRULY want to learn and discuss cryptocurrencies. The big difference is that you are just another SPAMMER who just wants to milk the forum with bounties, while shitposting all day. And we don't want those type of users here.

So, please... Can you just stop crying and move on? You will not get unbanned.

Not without your address private key or wallet backup seed. Undecided
12329  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: what is merit how to earn "Merit" easy? on: June 26, 2018, 03:05:29 PM
You can't buy, sell or trade merit. You get it by making high-quality posts.

Read this thread: Merit & new rank requirements
12330  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: NOT WORKING! Withdrawl From Cash App to electrum/electron cash on: June 26, 2018, 01:46:28 PM
This is Electron Cash. An Electrum fork for Bitcoin Cash.

Since what you received was BITCOIN and not BITCOIN CASH, you need to download and use the official Electrum wallet, which supports Bitcoin.

Download it at electrum.org and open your wallet file with it. The interface is pretty much the same.

P.S: Bitcoin =/= Bitcoin Cash. Bitcoin Cash is an altcoin and a fork.
12331  Other / Meta / Re: How does this account have an avatar? on: June 26, 2018, 01:41:44 PM
You could use an avatar at any rank back in the old days.

OP added his avatar when it was possible for him.
12332  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Robinhood on: June 26, 2018, 01:17:51 PM
Can you transfer crypto in and out?  Like if you purchase it on Robinhood then can you transfer it to another wallet you have that is not Robinhood?
Not yet. Only buy and sell. But AFAIK it's going to be possible in the future.
12333  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: 2018 List Bitcoin Mixers Bitcoin Tumblers Websites on: June 26, 2018, 01:12:46 PM
My goal is to thoroughly expose Smartmix.io and completely bury the service.
Then just post your evidence. I've checked your article and you didn't say anything about why SmartMix is a scam.

Who is going to believe in you? If you want to bury the service, then you need to publicly expose them.
12334  Other / Meta / Re: Banned account says 7 days but is banned from January on: June 26, 2018, 01:06:59 PM
And then you find people buying and selling accounts. Stealing and seling accounts.
Scams are not moderated. So this isn't against the rules.

Meanwhile, spamming (mainly to join a bounty/giveaway/earn extra stakes) is against the rules. And you can get banned for this.
12335  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Insert image tutorial on: June 26, 2018, 12:57:59 PM
Or is this tutorial worthless?
Pretty much this. We don't need a tutorial for every basic thing in the internet.

You can just right-click the image and select "Copy image URL" to get the ending jpg link.
12336  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How Merit System Works? on: June 26, 2018, 01:36:52 AM
1.Is merit comes automatically for forum activities?
No. You get it from other members.

2.Is someone give us merit ?
Yes.

3.Is it comes automatically when rank increased?
No.

Why don't you try to read the main thread? You clearly didn't get it yet.

12337  Bitcoin / Hardware wallets / Re: How to transfer coin to Ledger Nano S? on: June 25, 2018, 11:43:41 PM
Change your USB port and/or cable and try again.

Is your Ledger unlocked? Did you insert the pin code and selected the BTC app?
12338  Other / Meta / Re: Banned account says 7 days but is banned from January on: June 25, 2018, 09:21:51 PM
I would lift the ban if it is only for low quality posts and he has no other accounts with a history of bans.
Sure... so, did you just registered this account to post this? Or are you OP and think we are dumb enough to think you are a different user randomly suggesting a unban for yourself? Cheesy

Is it normal to permanently ban someone for low quality posts on the first ban?
I think it's possible if that's all you do. I've seen multiple users these past few weeks that got permanent banned and the only possible (or at least evident) reason was that they were spamming (mainly in bounty threads) and/or writing in a thread to earn a bonus (which is against the rules and will get you perma banned).
12339  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Best cryptocurrency exchange on: June 25, 2018, 09:15:54 PM
For Bitcoin -> Altcoins, use Binance. They allow you to withdrawal 2BTC worth of coins per week, so if you always withdrawal less than that per week, you don't need to do any ID verification.
12340  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: tweet on: June 25, 2018, 12:51:01 AM
You don't need to ask anyone. Just do yourself:

1. Change your twitter username temporarily;
2. Do the audit with the new username;
3. Change it back to your original name;
4. Done! Free re-audit!
