Is it better to mine or buy Bitcoin?

[Menawi12]

 i think Bitcoin is only profitable if done at large scales. you must get expensive mining equipment and of course it consumes a lot of electricity monthly. Also it’s usually much more cost effective to buy Bitcoins with this money instead of using it to buy mining equipment.

Every option between mining or buying bitcoin have their own advantages. If we are buying bitcoin and holding it for long time, we dont need to build our rig to mining bitcoin. Most important thing is we holding our bitcoin not matter if we mining it or buying it

[FurDich]

Buying Bitcoin at this time is a more sensible move than mining because Bitcoin's value is down.

I agree with you because of the price dropping. While in mining it takes time to get bitcoin but there's a good result on that. Price dropping low is the advantage for us to buy bitcoin at low price.

Yes, you're right, unless you live in a country where the electricity is very very cheap you better buy BTC on an exchange rather than buying all the equipment stuff you need for the mining, without forgetting the maintenance they need.

My suggestion is that buying is better if you have the time, knowledge, and willingness to trade for maximum profit. If you do not have it and you want to accumulate btc or some other mine and do not have to worry about the daily market than me. Buy a good rig / miner, plug it in and let them do the job. You only have a bucks bunch, but you might also consider btc free by going deeper in this forum

You put money and effort for the both of them. Both are also risky, but I agree that mining will consume more electricity and thus the ROI (return of investments) for all the expenses like mining rigs, etc. will return in a span of a year or more. Though you can see your everyday profits, the volatility of the prices will not benefit you if the dump stage came in.

I suggest you invested in bitcoin. Save your money and buy btc. Less hassle and more convenient.

Takes a very long time to ROI if mining is current. as well as many other options with other mining coins that you think have the potential to make a profit far greater than today. as well as the difficult mining block mining continues to grow. so the total bitcoin you receive will continue to decrease. so quite not worth it if with minimum capital.

I won't agree with this simply because of the fact that mining is not profitable anymore. I would rather buy 1 bitcoin than build an entire large facility for mining. It is because the true way to success is investing and it has been proven by so many successful businessmen. I haven't heard any successful miners so I would advice you to buy bitcoin now because its price is very low as of now.

Mining is only good for the people who got a lot of money because the profit of mining is not that high compare to the other way of making money in cryptocurrency. If you don't have a lot of money then it is better for you to just buy bitcoin and learn how to trade different cryptocurrencies so you will have more profit compare to the miners.

I chose to invest in bitcoin and do not regret it at all. Mining is a very costly enterprise.

Actually it costs us so much because we don’t have reliable sources of electricity. For mining you don’t need anything extraordinary rather just use some good PCs who are powerful and can have internet access plus electricity availability whole day. And this resource providing thing make bitcoins more expensive. Commercial electricity will cost so high so all the profits are just dispread in that cost only.

In my opinion, it is better to buy Bitcoin because the price today is still low and then just hold until the price of Bitcoin will rise up again. We all know that the price is still have dips these past three months but don't be discourage because that is normal in cryptocurrency trading. Just take this time or opportunity to invest additional and then hold. Bitcoin is our future so don't be afraid about what others said that discourages us. Just believe that Bitcoin will increase too soon.

Electricity is not cheap in our country so if i were on your shoes and i have the capital then i would rather buy bitcoin and hold it for a while and wait for prices to increase.

Bitcoin mining is a good choice, but you need to choose a good time. For example, when the market is about to rise, the profit of mining will be a good income, but if it goes down, the mining income may be greater than the expenditure. , so you need to choose a good time is very important.

Both are expensive to invest with. Bitcoin mining computers are quite much expensive than directly buying bitcoins. I think it is better to choose to buy than to mine. But both are good investment. Maybe bitcoin miner may expensive in the first place, but i think the return on investment is good.

 Bitcoin is the worlds first Cryptocurrency  no doubt. Bitcoin is an online currency no Banks or any government takes control over Bitcoin. Bitcoin transactions is done by peer to peer transfer through the internet. To me I prefer to buy Bitcoin from exchanges or others who holds Bitcoin from trust worthy persons. I don't wish to  mine Bitcoin since it is too expensive compared to electricity usages In countries like China the energy rate is too low so there are so many mining factories run by. Bearing in mind about all the expenses I think better to buy Bitcoin.

[Zahrowil Qolbi]

might buy better to mine because it makes you likely to save money to mine on a daily basis for a certain price

i think mining bitcoin is not good now but for now buying bitcoins is more good because of the word profit but low sell high the value of bitcoin now is tstilll decreasing so its more good to buy or to regret soon and its better to get more information and knowledge so you will not loss in trading because the important think in life is lesson and knowledge.

Bitcoin mining requires high speed computers and efficient hardwares. Mostly it can cost from few hundred to thousand dollars. Bitcoin by default will make mining a difficult task with time (though miners can earn via transaction fees).

If you have enough time and money to invest in Bitcoins then go for mining otherwise buying Bitcoins is more easy.

[sparveenat]

To my knowledge mining is more expensive and lot of risk is there so buying bitcoin is better then mining. But if you have a big financial background and  support you can try for mining also you need more patience also to get success in mining.

[hsdjdyt]

First, the risk of mining is definitely less than the risk of buying Bitcoin. Even if bitcoin continues to fall for a long time, you don't need to worry about your profits being lost, because you only need to pay some of the cost of electricity, and then wait for bitcoin prices to pick up.

[TWW]

i prefer in buying bitcoin than mining it...because bitcoin mining nowadays is not worth it...it only pay you in little ammount and you should pay more in electricity and others...well maybe it still profitable in other coins but you must choose it wisely
