Topic: Best Laptop for crypto? - page 2. (Read 17128 times)
even if not really suitable for mining as a laptop I suggest looking at the processor instead of the model, for me the best are from ryzen 5 up, obviously with dedicated nvidia card
For me, I see that there is no difference in the type of laptop, it is up to the wallet that you want to use, and it is better for you to use an offline wallet such as hardware wallets or paper wallets
Price of Lenovo sp145 is pretty decent. It's only worth $500 with space for upgrades. Consider this if you are into cheap but reliable brands.
I prefer to Alien Ware just what i use right now, a high end specification can be your good asset for storing and monitoring market . 
Anything spent in Apple can be found elsewhere for a third of the price, or 3 times more capable. Apple products are pure waste. Get a decent PC with a decent OS, such as Linux. Now Apple decided to move their platform to Arm cpus, but ARM is about to be sold to a company that might extinguish it. Talk about bad timing...
In general you should have stayed away from that company for decades, at least since Steve Wozniak left. Nothing worth there, the OS isn't worth the planned obsolescence and the absolute lack of freedom, almost tyrannical rule.
If you want something "Stylish", take a look at Alibaba. Any "style" Apple creates, gets immediately copied by China. I don't particularly like it, and the true styling died with the other Steve anyway. Latest Apple laptops had infamously flawed keyboards so its not like you are getting any quality for more money either.
I could go on but i hope you see the point. Get the best gear that can run Linux (or BSD) and does and looks what you like, forget the rest.

Go for the mac, which is better, faster and more stylish compared to other laptops.And it is not possible to say one variant as best because everyday we can see new launhes so things changes everyday.But better find the right combination of hardwares in it and also give importance to the brand.
If you are considering a laptop, then you may be going off grid. If this is the case, then I would replace a mechanical hard drive with a large SSD, You may also like to look at some of the fanless laptops, and thus reduce the power consumption, and increase battery life.
To tell the truth, my favorite laptops are Acer
I'll guess because of its variant. Although I don't know any acer laptop but I'm starting to like its variant.The nitro series and predator.
For these purposes, you can use almost any laptop. Not so important characteristics of the laptop when you use almost "office applications." If you are going to use a laptop for some modern games, then you have to buy something better, but for normal work - any laptop with core i3 or i5.
Yes. For these applications, no need to be that much meticulous and high end. But as time goes by, the user will also upgrade the applications that he used so it may eat up a lot of ram so before buying, consider too the future upgrades.
Categorization of i3 or i5 depends too because some buyers aren't aware of the gen type of it. It must be the latest or near to that.
the most expensive you can afford with lots of ram and decent processor

I think the best laptop for crypto is HP I use an HP laptop and it's a lot of gaming laptops You will find a lot of comfort in working There is no fear of being hacked very well in securing exchanges and wallets. You can run everything in it without hitting it heavy MasterNodes are great for running.
actually there are many alternatives that you can use that are sold in the market, because maybe now the specifications are fairly advanced and not too behind because the old ones are rarely used anymore. Until now, I have only used ASUS A456U and I feel that it can be used enough that there is no need for modifications anymore.
the most important is using software and internet security original.
Yes its super easy, its just dd image device. In windows there are a bunch of tools that do the same, such as rufus or windd.
Then you reboot the computer and tell it to boot from that, you probably need to reboot into bios/uefi and tell it to boot from the usb. Fast/secure boot probably needs to be disabled.
As for running nodes, just run them trimmed if your storage is low. You still need to wait the 250g download for Bitcoin alone. Once in sync bandwidth use shouldn't be much, but beware of the initial download (don't do it on metered connections).
Thank you for the answer! But why can't I use the initial load on the measurement connections?Then you reboot the computer and tell it to boot from that, you probably need to reboot into bios/uefi and tell it to boot from the usb. Fast/secure boot probably needs to be disabled.

Of course you can, just prepare to pay for at least 250g worth of data...
Unless your service also imposes data limits. Its not just money, depending on country and place.
Metered mobile data plans tend to get VERY expensive real fast. If your country is "nice", you may even have an unlimited plan, that would be the best.
You can also download the blockchain elsewhere, a place without limits, and copy it manually to your node, then the syncing would be much more cheaper.
Or download the blockchain from satellite if you can somehow get the antenna and required device.
Not really, its just Debian with Tor pre-configured. I think installing that is easier than a normal Debian install. But the main use of Tails is to use it without installing it at all, directly booting it from an optical media or usb thumb drive.
And no, you should just not use "any" OS, avoid insecure OSes like the plague and stop contributing to malware paradise. If you are not familiar with Linux or *BSD, its time you start familiarizing with them before doing serious things like handling money, ESPECIALLY when you are your own bank. Show some responsible attitude.
Creating this flash drive itself isn't as easy as I thought it would be... And no, you should just not use "any" OS, avoid insecure OSes like the plague and stop contributing to malware paradise.

What is plague ?

Yeah i exploit Dell's laptop on my very own it's great and that i feel very comfortable working How you run a laptop will depend upon you One can easily hide past files by itself and is extremely useful for running crypto wallets and master nodes there's no fear of the laptop hanging. you'll easily protect your passwords and there are many compatible backup subfiles.

That's a strange question..I use MacOS by the way. But I think the services work identically on every laptop.
Agreed, I think every laptop will work here. Just use the OS you're familiar with.
Not any laptop is good for this task, if we have a laptop with a 128Gb ssd, that will not enough to run a full bitcoin node. It is important to have an SSD for most of the coins nowadays, any coin node runs faster with this piece of hardware. So, the best thing to do with a laptop (if we want to use it with cryptos) is to but at least 1TB in ssd.
If you want to use that laptop for mining, then you can chase a laptop with a nice graphics card. like a 1060 nvidia or something better.
The question should have been: "Best Laptop for Linux?". You are not going to ever do anything serious (or safe) using windows or osx.
It will also trigger many excellent answers if you search exactly that, some even sell those pre-installed, but you can always install your own distro, such as Tails.
By the way, I've seen step-by-step instructions on how to install Tails in this forum. It will also trigger many excellent answers if you search exactly that, some even sell those pre-installed, but you can always install your own distro, such as Tails.
Tails is really very cool but for VERY advanced users
