I've never mined before but i am looking into it. Is it possible to make a profit mining cryptocurrencies with an average computer? I have read a decent amount about mining, and I know its not a get rich quick scheme, but are there any currencies where mining is actually profitable without ASIC or a powerful computer. If so, what currencies would you recommend to start mining?
if you want to use mining CPU to get profit :
1. First, you should pay attention to CPU processor, see in task manager if using windows OS, when mining performance "CPU USAGE" will be 90% -100%. For a long-term time, you should regularly change paste processor. Keep in mind the pasta cost.
2. Secondly, the electricity for your mining should be free.
3. thirdly, the internet for mining you should be free.
therefore most people are already using GPU or ASIC.
