Do not bother for any reason unless you want to practice with mining altcoins. I use Minergate for some fun things, but it is just for fun. Mining is to difficult to be profitable at this time, In my opinion.

Yes but I do not recommend you to mine bitcoins or altcoins with your personal laptop as it wont make you the expected amount of profit. Due to more electric bills plus it will destroy your hardware (GPU) and make you regret one day of doing so which I have already experienced Angry

much better to mine alt if you really wanted to use your laptop as btc and eth will harm your laptop too much heat it will overheat the built in video and profits is not that much if possible much better to buy mining rig instead or make investment buying btc or eth.

I don't think mining is worth it unless you have a nice set up, maybe invest in some miners? But just using a regular PC? I don't think so...

Most forms of mining take investment at this point. To mine BTC it's going to take an investment in a asic. Ether is possible you could do on a regular PC if it was set up for gaming and had nice card, most are not going to be this though. So most will be investments.

But many are building PC rigs to mine Ether so it can be done, and is being done. And profit is there if done right.

nope. I have the same parameters and im mining in minergate.com differrent cryptocurrencies and im earning 20000 satoshis a day ( converted). It isnt worth it to harm my pc for that

And in a lot of cases it is not the "harm to pc". It is laptops that really are ones that people can harm pushing hard, desktops you could... but chaces are far less they just have a ton better cooling in most cases.

The thing where it does not make sense is electricity in most cases on regular PC. As if it has good GPU mining Ether is possible to turn a profit. But regular cpu and cheap GPU are going to cost more running then they make. So a lose due to electricity.

You can mine some altcoins, but mining BTC with desktop computers doesn't make sense anymore.

Not really ideal for bitcoin mining. No computer in my opinion is really that suitable for bitcoin mining. If you are going hardcore with mining, I suggest you getting some proper hardware.

Also with the difficulty increases and halving... Not worth it mate.

Bitcoin- in bullish time

Computers are not designed for mining bitcoins if you have some extra budget i suggest to buy some mining hardware and join to a mining pool to mine bitcoin fast.

Typical desktops or laptops will never be able to mine coins at a profit now. Even CPU based coins which are made for regular computer mining usually take more electricity to get them than they are worth. And your computer will also die faster so...

computers are not designed for mining. if you want to save your computer then do not do it. as great as your computer are the same. you will lose a lot of money to replace the faulty computer at some later date. do not ever try !!!

Yes computers are not designed for mining, but bitcoin is designed as an online currency, and you can't have it if you don't have computer.
So, computers are used for mining, as long as the specs of your computer suits for mining.

I think the wear and tear on your computer isn't worth whatever you could make mining a cpu only coin. Plus with electricity you might be even losing money so...

I don't think it is profitable by doing mining with any of the laptops around as it needs more power and the electric power consumption will cover your mining profit with the electric bill Cheesy

You can try mining on minergate.com

Minergate is cool. But you won't get much. But I guess its ok of you just want a few new altcoins to store. Couldn't hurt

I think in your computer hardcore speculations i think you can mine but it will not be profitable.Or even it profited maybe just a small amount if you will focus on bitcoin mining in your pc.Because of high electricity bills due to because you need to open it all day for 7 days to profit good.If you will go mining at your pc ill recommend to mine other altcoins like ltc eth and doge and convert it to bitcoin on online trading site
