Hi,
I just recently came into the game just this past Sunday, unfortunately I didn't think much of bitcoins and mining back in 2009 when I first saw it coming out. Iv been doing a lot of reading on all the different areas, and this is a lot of stuff to learn.
It comes down to this:
I can invest and trade like I do in the stock market - but I would rather *not* since I am not familiar with this exchange.
Or, I could CPU mine with a couple computers from work.
(x2) Intel i3-2130 and (x2) Core2duo 3Ghz, 4-8GB RAM
I also could get a computer or 2 running @ home since it is also a flat rate electric bill.
The i3's would run 24/7 and the Core2duos only at night. No machine expenses or electric costs since its a flat rate monthly electric bill.
Is CPU mining profitable? How much could I make in a month running these machines?
If there is something a bit more profitable I have to invest in I could do $2000. The problem I have seen with bitcoins is the machine costs will never pay off if i get a 2Th machine.
There aren't a lot of CPU only coins left. Dimecoin is one of the most prominent. My advice to you is to get some AMD GPUs and mine some sort of scrypt coin. Or if you really want to, you can mine DIME
