Hi all,

I am in the situation that I have free electricity because it's included in my monthly rent and wanted to know if it's worth to get into mining at this point? Of course I can't set up 10 Antminers, but I checked and as long as it's not exorbitant, it's okay to use the power.

I started to mine Monero on my gaming pc just because I am interested in the technology. It would take a long time to get back the cost for the hardware, so you kind of have to count on that the coin appreciates right?
Which coin would you recommend?
Also which Hardware would you recommend?

There are so many options I am kind of confused. Mine Monero with GPUs and hope they appreciate or buy an ASIC and mine ETH or BTC...
I have a budget of 4000$.


Also I have cool temperatures and fast internet (900 mb/s) if that matters in any way?



Thanks for your help Smiley

Monero was a good choice few months ago Cheesy But it's still good to mine even now. With same AMD GPUs you may mine ETH too.
ASIC would be great too, we might get better group price for Innosilicon A4+, there is topic about it.

if you have free electricity then best coins to mine are, prisoncoin, jailcoin,robber'scoin,stealcoin,thievescoin but make sure you don't end mining policecoin cause is rare but the chances are that you get a policecoin every thousands of coins mined.

Well.. it can be free electricity for now but after first month when your place owner gets that 500$ electricity bill you have something to explain.

Enjoy as long as you can.
