Is there still coins that are profitable to mine with a laptop with a normal energy cost?

Not Bitcoin.

So you need to post in the Altcoin section.

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
A: Top-posting.

In general, laptops don't have particularly good cooling (there are exceptions) and therefore aren't good for mining.

I use cryptocurrency and solar power to help my best friend Naomi Wu... And I'm proud of it!

CPU or GPU mining on a laptop won't be worth the effort you put into it.  Bitcoin is dominated by ASICS hardware, which you can't really compete with and alt coins require decent GPUs, which isn't as profitable as it once was either.

I'm also not talking about very popular cryptcoins to mine! But more coins that have a circulation off 1000 dollars a day! Not super popular but still sellable what makes me think there are not to much miners!

You're better off using your laptop to bludgeon stone in the hopes of finding ore to smelt into a physical coin.

BitcoinTalk is a highly censored cesspool primarily serving as a vehicle to operate scams.
Pointing out truth or straying from the promoted narrative will be met with shills spouting non sequiturs.
Trust ratings are meaningless as those who control them are not worthy of trust.

Mining is expensive enough using a desktop, couldn't imagine a laptop.

i would use a laptop to run a stake miner! staking coins can be profitable but hash mining on a laptop is not worth it!

dont mine with your laptop.

its operational cost is higher than your mine.

i mean you can earn 2 dollars per day. but you can break your laptop. it costs you 1000dollars.
