Topic: Is Bitcoin Mining Still Viable? - page 2. (Read 548 times)
Well if you are currently mining and planning to hodl it for a long-term purpose, then it could be viable. Mining equipment nowadays are expensive, not to consider maintenance, electricity cost and cooling system for your farm will cost you a lot. So, you will have yo consider all this and look in a long-term perspective.
If we take it on the perspective of mining Bitcoin as a long term investment, then I say yes it is still viable! Since most people are hopeful for Bitcoin's future prospect and potential to have massive price gains, I think they are aiming for higher ROI in the future. But I guess its up to the miners especially for those who have lesser hashing power to decide whether they want to shoulder bigger mining operating costs with minimal profits in the hope that Bitcoin's price will rise profoundly in the near future in order to recover their investments.
Viable, yes. Profitable? Not for everyone else. Only the big rigs are gaining a lot from mining as of this writing, while everyone else have already sold their machines or have found a new coin to mess with while the market is still shaky and unpredictable. As long as bitcoins have value, people will mine it, though the disparity between profits will be defined between large farms and little ones, of course.
yes, it is valuable. no matter how high bitcoins block difficulty goes people are still gonna do bitcoin mining that's one of the most useful ways of making money and contributing to the network without even doing any work at all. If Mining was not profitable then why are big companies are doing it till now and why so many people are using pool mining.
Sure it is.
It seems to me that those who are engaged in mining already know the answer to your question. It all depends on the country in which you are mining. There are even interactive maps showing the countries with the cheapest and most expensive electricity. But this is all subjective. Each individual case must be considered separately. I am engaged in mining ETH in two countries and in one of them it still remains profitable and in the other there is practically no. But as you understand, many miners can now work at a loss in order to sell more expensive in future. This practice also exists.
And now we heard that China might ban bitcoin mining, someone will pick up, whether through joint ventures or state sponsored mining farms or companies.
That has still not been confirmed yet. The Chinese government will most likely not go through with this since they would lose out on a ton of profit which is why I don't see this as a feasible move.Bitmain will continue functioning in the mining sector in one way or another in my opinion.
Is mining bitcoin still a viable venture to undertake in today’s world?
If Bitcoin mining is not viable, many people will close it (BTC mining shutdown en masse).
Crypto Mining currently is a long term investment venture and it might take months before you can make a decent profit...
Perfect... true. Mining BTC is a long-term investment whose benefits we cannot enjoy quickly or short-term. What about the active miners where the price of BTC plunged to the price of $ 3000 yesterday? they will enjoy the results of their profits in mining after the next few months where BTC prices have risen by more than $ 6,000. Apart from that, being feasible or not, BTC mining depends on our perspective in investing in mining BTC.
Is mining bitcoin still a viable venture to undertake in today’s world? We will explore that question in this article. But first, let’s explore the various ways in which you can mine Bitcoin.

If we use the specialized equipment and have enough of it to generate good revenue while having the high profits then it is viable to mine bitcoin.
But if we use GPUs or CPUs to mine bitcoin then obviously it is not at all viable to do that.
Is mining bitcoin still a viable venture to undertake in today’s world?
The viability of Bitcoin mining solely depends on how long you are willing to invest in the mining venture. If you are thinking of joining the mining ecosystem and you have a mindset that in just one month you will start earning or gaining profit, then I'm sorry to tell you that Bitcoin mining currently does not become profitable after some few weeks of joining. Crypto Mining currently is a long term investment venture and it might take months before you can make a decent profit...
Bitcoin mining is fully open to entry-exit. So actually free market conditions apply. Costs are period, decreasing or increasing. It has nothing to do with being viable. Bitcoin mining will always be viable. The cost of everything is as it is in mining.
that is a wrong question to ask!
the real question is asked in a comparative way. meaning the question is whether bitcoin mining is viable with the equipment you have access to and the electricity cost that you are exposed to. otherwise it is always going to be viable and very profitable to mine bitcoin in general that is why there is always a huge amount of computing power (hashrate) mining bitcoin no matter what the price is.

It is not viable then hash rate should be affected negatively. But it isn't so I guess there's your answer. As far as being profitable? there's a lot of factors here like cheap electricity, environment, and everything.
But one thing for sure is that there will be miners being born out there somewhere. And now we heard that China might ban bitcoin mining, someone will pick up, whether through joint ventures or state sponsored mining farms or companies.

Looking at the huge cost of setting up a mining rig or farm i don't think anybody would want to get into bitcoin mining for now. Most governments are also banning the mining of cryptocurrencies in their countries so what if after setting the mining farm the mining of cryptocurrencies gets banned in your country. Invest into some cheap cryptocurrencies in this bear market and hold them till their prices rise up. It's way better this way than setting up a mining farm which is very expensive.

With the current price of Bitcoin, I am sure the Bitcoin mining activity can still be profitable and viable depending on the location, the cost of electricity and the political culture of the place you are in. This means that in many areas Bitcoin mining is already dead because of high cost and less availability of power. There are place where electric can be cheaper but politically the atmosphere is not friendly. This is in fact, bringing the next question: What if there be less and fewer locations where mining can be viable...what will happen to Bitcoin and its sustainability? Can we develop new technology for Bitcoin mining where the demand for power is not that significant?
Bitcoin is viable to some extent, one cannot depend on the same for all the needs. Depending upon the market fluctuation the profitability varies with time. If someone has access to free electricity or possibilities to produce electricity in a cheap manner then it is highly viable. By the beginning of 2018 I stopped mining and till date nothing seems profiting considering the capital investment.
Not after end of 2017 when price decreased constantly. It depends on how cheap/expensive the electricity is.
In most of the countries mining is no longer profitable and it might become attractive at a price of 6500-7000 $.

It really depends on what you mean by "viable", and I'm not trying to be flippant about that. Bitcoin could shoot up tremendously with another bull-run or a significant use-case; when this happens all of those coins you mined in the past will become a lot more "worth it". You can mine at a loss today, but as long as you hold onto your BTC you can make the decision when it is the time to cash-out or not.
The short answer would be yes, although if you're looking to profit at today's prices then the search becomes a little harder. Still entirely doable though.

It's still viable but you have to set specific plan to make it more profitable. You must consider the consumption, your capital, your equipment set up and even the market situation. Bitcoin mining would be viable if you're gaining more than what you consume.

Bitcoin mining have become a very consuming venture lately with high cost of electricity and software's before you can set up a mining farm now you have to have huge capital and cheap electricity supply such as solar system. But if you have a good location and friendly government policy bitcoin mining can be highly profitable.
