cpu mining is outdated a few years ago.
You can't get anything by mining with a laptop
I'm sorry but he said he use ASIC or USB miner. Not cpu
and that would be the correct way to go about it even for a desktop. Even GPU mining for bitcoins is not profitable anymore, and low end ASICs like the block erupter have a limited lifetime before they will become obsolete (a few months probably).

You can utilize your laptop in better ways like trading, coding and providing services to earn bitcoin.

Use laptops for communication purpose.

You cannot mine profitably.

Give it a go for a while, and do your own math.

Noone teach you perfectly. Observe your results on your own.

Can I mine bitcoins on a laptop? If not, can I mine with any USB miner or ASIC Miner?

You can mine on a laptop but you will mine much less Bitcoins than you pay for electricity.


Also your laptop most probably will melt because laptops and heat don't go well together.

2 options:

  • Use a laptop as basic "life support" for an ASIC or FPGA miner, providing power, work, and communication to the network/pools
  • Get a good laptop, good cooling, and mine on the GPU. It's only viable really in the hundreds of mhash/sec
  • Don't mine, and do work for bitcoin/invest fiat currency in the market
