It will be a horror if you mine by every kind of laptop! Day by day technology will be easier than thought, but don't misuse it. Mining is not so easy task, it takes a high volume of electricity, Gopu tools, high graphics, and some other things. But if you are talking about some mining website or apps then you are taken the wrong path. Because you will get nothing by those types of activity.

No, it will kill your laptop, yes you can mine it but laptop was designed for light work only . I suggest you to don't do that. I strongly suggest ypu to by mining tools so you will not destroy your laptop.
Current technology is highly developed even from all fields ranging from the internet, cellphones, PCs, to laptops, we all know bitcoin mining activities require very large specifications because it is very difficult to hack a network, but behind it laptop hardware is getting higher and more for the main capital to mine bitcoin, even though the amount is very minimal but if done continuously it will be more and more.

As Bitcoin mining ages, it becomes more difficult and sophisticated to mine the Bitcoins. Currently, a lot of energy and high level computers with great GPUs are required for mining Bitcoins if you want to yield a quite tangible amount of Bitcoin for some period of time. Ordinary laptops are just used to register some for softwares which mimics the Bitcoin mining.

It is just a waste of time if you mine bitcoin with a laptop. You will end up destroying the laptop and you will waste additional money to get a new one. It will be better if you build a pc purposely for mining bitcoin or other cryptocurrency.
People can try to mine bitcoin with a laptop if that is what they want, but they are never going to get any positive results out of this, if they are lucky they are just going to waste their time, but as you say if they are not they run the chance of destroying their computers by running them by too long, I do not know why people think like this, no one has been able to earn profits out of bitcoin mining with a laptop for a very long time.

Yes, because it is not good idea for the miners to do that.  The laptop can be damage by overheating, you cannot gain profit but your laptop can be broke and the money that you have cannot buy a new laptop.  That's the logic, the laptop brands can be profitable and not you.

You really are just with a bitcoin mining laptop, but it takes a long time and more energy. Because a laptop might only contribute very little hash power to mine bitcoin.

Yes that's true, bitcoin is very easy so anyone can use it. The most important thing in using bitcoin is an internet connection that helps us manage the bitcoin. Bitcoin can also be used anywhere, can be used via cellphone or used via a laptop. So we can all use bitcoin easily. For now the most important thing in bitcoin is a smooth internet connection and an adequate cellphone or laptop to use.

Yes it can mine bitcoin but you should consider the heat and power consumption it took from the laptops and it might damage your laptops in the long run. Laptops are not advisable to do mining because it can heat up the components and in the worst scenario it could blow up your laptops. If you wanna do mining maybe you use recommended rigs to mine bitcoin, less heat and less maintenance than laptops.

I think the type of mining that only uses laptop devices or ordinary computers will not be able to get maximum results. because mining activities must certainly have strong processor power. and laptop is designed only for a job with standard processor power. so if you want to do mining you should buy a device to do mining activities and it looks like you have to spend a lot of money.

the efforts of such computers will be unreasonably low, and so no one does. if only to limit the power, then Yes, perhaps

Because it requires a lot of power and electrical resources are not small, the process of mining (mining) cryptocurrency is usually done with a special computer. Can be a desktop that is fitted with many graphics cards to server farm.

But lately emerged an alternative form of software that allows users with laptops or regular computers to participate in mining without needing to spend to buy expensive devices.

The Honeyminer startup software runs dynamic mining by combining the user's computer into a pool of thousands of other computers. Each computer contributes power to the cryptocurrency mining process.

The "power" donated comes from the computer GPU. If it is not in use, then the computer GPU will be used to participate in processing the mining process together with GPU kompter-other computers incorporated in the pool Honeyminer.

Thus, while the GPU capability of a computer may be small, the combined power of thousands of GPUs can generate significant resources for this collective mining process.
Nowadays, Bitcoin mining difficulty is very high and as we know that the power generated by GPU is small, mining Bitcoin using a laptop is a bad idea because it will not be profitable for participants
Yes, you are right. Bitcoin mining is not so easy as you thinking. For bitcoin mining you need to use high powerful technology. Otherwise there have not so much benfits on mining. Laptop GPU capability is very low. That's it will be wrong decision, if you want to start bitcoin mining with your laptop.

No, it will kill your laptop, yes you can mine it but laptop was designed for light work only . I suggest you to don't do that. I strongly suggest ypu to by mining tools so you will not destroy your laptop.
Definitely true that Laptop is useful for normal work. You can't use it on some hard work like bitcoin mining. It may can damage your Laptop. That's why if you interested on Bitcoin mining, then you can buy some tools for Bitcoin mining.


not just laptops and computers, even today we can use some smartphones used to mine, I've seen some people using Samsung S5 for mining

because the capacity of the Samsung S5 is very large and supports mining, in addition, we can mine by using ASIC.
Yeah, I also heard about it that we can mine with our smart phone. But I didn't try it and I heard from some people that when they start mining Eletroneium Coin on their smart phone, their phone become very slow and sometimes get hang. So I recommend don't use smart phone for mining.

Previously I used laptops for the purpose of exploiting Bitcoin and altcoin. But after I tried Bitcoin exploit for a month and my computer was broken. I think the laptop will never be able to exploit Bitcoin and altcoin

Exactly what I want to say about Bitcoin or altcoin mining on laptop. It may damage your laptop and you faced it very badly. Cause laptop can't take much pressure. That's why while you trying to mining it broken.

Laptop GPU capability is very low. That's it will be wrong decision, if you want to start bitcoin mining with your laptop.

Yes- you are correct. The difficulty on bitcoin is too high to mine it on a laptop. You need to use a dedicated ASIC miner - otherwise it is a waste of time.

Yeah, I also heard about it that we can mine with our smart phone. But I didn't try it and I heard from some people that when they start mining Eletroneium Coin on their smart phone, their phone become very slow and sometimes get hang. So I recommend don't use smart phone for mining.


Electroneum is "simulated mining". It doesn't actually mine coins - it just simulates it and you get rewarded from the premine. It is a gimmick. But you do get a reward and yes it can cause your phone to hang or lag.

Some coins like monero are mined via websites using (malware) coinhive.  It uses your CPU cycles while you visit the site as a "donation" to the website owner.

There are still some coins you can mine via CPU like Gapcoin https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/gapcoin/

We are surrounded by legends on this forum. Phenomenal successes and catastrophic failures. Then there are the scams. This forum is a digital museum.

Everything can become Bitcoin exploiters, Bitcoin is currently the most popular cryptocurrency, so there will be a lot of people using desktops and laptops to exploit Bitcoin. But I think people should not exploit Bitcoin with a laptop


Everything can happen with good efforts, skills and hard work. Even computers or laptop you may actually do the mining, trading or even investments. Everything may happen if you just do your part not just dependin on the hardwares but your mind and thoughts as well works as a software.

Good for you. Don't do it because worst case you'll be breaking your laptop for no reason. The money is not worth your time and trouble. You'll be risking a computer that can be worth $1000 to possibly get $50 in cryptocurrency after months of looking after it. Mining isn't a self sustaining process. You need to be around and monitor everything because if you happen to lose connection the computer will be on and wasting energy for nothing.

Nowadays? People were using Intel Pentium 4 for mining! Why? Because the level of difficulty is still appropriate, and now when the price of Bitcoin is too expensive, the level of difficulty is also increasing, as well as the electricity costs. I think many people who choose to go mining have to wait until they have big capital. Don’t let yourself fooled by a pool that promises profit with a regular laptop, if you are smart you should be able to calculate how much you will get and then reduce it with the funds you have spent so far, and you can finally say that you profitable or just promised a sweet promise.

You can mine bitcoin on a laptop if you are happy with getting only pennies per day.  It’s really not cost effective to mine with a laptop nowadays.

it's true that crypto mining requires very high power, and I think a sophisticated laptop can also be used today.

Lol even the most sophisticated laptop can't met the mining requirements. If this thing can do mining then we shouldn't need to spend thousand dollars for antminer and rigs.

Yeah maybe at least try it out and let's see how many hours it will long. Goodbye lappy.
Sure, our common sense needed here.
