Topic: mining on laptop can make a profit? (Read 1597 times)
i too tried mining on my Laptop, tried getting some unconfirmed balance but the hash rate is way too low, and now i m thinking of stopping it, as results are not that great.
i think mining difficulty take a big problem for laptop mining 
its true, that mining on laptop with gpu/cpu is not profitable
i have try it on my gigabyte sabre with core i7 kabylake cpu and nvidia gforce 1050Ti i only get small amount for ethereum 0.0006/day, zcash 0.0002/day with 1 day testing and medium internet speed

I did mine on a laptop that had a 980m GTX for almost 8 months straight back in 2015 since I hardly used it. Profit wise it was terrible unless you really didn't care if it broke or not earning maybe 0.0004 BTC a week, though I was pretty surprised my Sager laptop still works today. But yeah now its completely worthless to mine with since its equivalent to an OC-ed 770 GTX
It's not profitable at all and also not worth. If you didn't know mining consumes all the power and the hardware of the system if you mine continuously your laptop might burn your chips and your might never start again. Mining on laptop will cause excess heat by which your laptop can even explode if you wanna mine buy any antman devices there are the most profitable ones
You will never make a profit
You'll not make any profit mining on a laptop and would rather damage your laptop by melting it.
Now i know that there is no way to mine in laptop because i always searching for mining in laptop but i suddenly stop because i have i feeling that it cantI always wondered if I have a good gaming laptop, say of around 1k$ and having a good GPU, can I mine some new altcoins.? I am not talking about POS coins. Most of the POS coins are invaluable. Can anyone give me an explanation in detail.?
its possible to mining on any laptop and get a profit?
It is very much possible but because laptops are limited in how much resources can go into mining they are not efficient enough for any profits to be realized. what coin to be mined with laptop (cpu/gpu) ?
please help me!!
What coins can be mined will depend on the hardware of the laptop itself and difficulty of the cryptocurrency you want to mine. please help me!!

No, it is a crazy idea, you should terminate it immediately. Mining should not be done on a laptop. It will ruin your laptop. The process of mining will consume a lot of energy and completely destroy the system.
In my opinion, it depends on how fast your laptop is, with some laptop brands you might benefit and you might not with some. You should consider using minergate and mine altcoins, it works for me, probably it might work for you.
I am afraid your laptop mining is just going to cover your electric cost.Just forget it.
You can use your laptop to research the icos, maybe you can find some good ones to make profit for you.

You make more money selling an old laptop you dont use and buy coins for the "profit" than using it to mine.
They are way too weak, and are not meant for 24/4 load. I ruined a few laptops as various servers like Plex etc over time. fans stopped working and things just fell apart. They last far shorter then you'd thing for those sort of stuff.

Yes it's possible but it is not going to be profitable instead you will just going to destroy your laptop. You should have time to learn more about mining. Mining isn't that something that you can mine from everywhere. The condition is to have better specs and more powerful video cards, GPU, CPU depending on what you will mine.
You potential mine coins through airdrops and bounties. But it does cost your time and effort.
You can mine ArtByte on your laptop, or anything with a CPU, because the ArtByte pool pays a bonus to all miners. You can mine with the builtin pool miner on the wallet. My test laptop is a 9 year old Dell Mini, it mines 30 - 60 ABY a day with under 2.5khs.
See how the bonus works on the ArtByte Forum

it doesn't worth to waste your time , energy and gpu. because you can't change your gpu at laptop.so i think it is a realy bad idea.
You can try but I think its not a good idea to use your laptop to mine because you will not get any profit and the possibility of damaging laptop will be hundred percent. Better invest in mining rig but make sure your electricity rate in your place is low.
bro, it's a bad idea, don't do this
There is an youtube video which shows that one can mine Burstcoin on one's android phone. If that can be done, then you might be able to mine burst coins on your laptop and be profitable. Frankly, I didn't try it.
24/7 is impossible for a Laptop ..
Not at all, the only times I shut down my laptop (or more likely put it to sleep) is when I have to travel or reboot for some reason, otherwise always on. No ill-effects of any sort.
But otherwise you're correct, mining on laptop is absolute waste of time and OP is better off just using their laptop to do some actual work and then just buy the crypto with that money. That's what I do as well.
You can find some altcoin that can compensate for mining.
But if you're talking about Ethereum, Zcash. You better forget it.

No, my friend.Just like a match, you riding on a bike , other miners drive a lambo. How can you get your profit by competing with them .
Too risky bro.
24/7 is impossible for a Laptop ..
I think Dell is a good laptop for it . but still too risky.
No Laptop is good for mining
if something is broken on the laptop.
it is hard to replace.
while in desktop/PC . you can customize it easily.

You can make only loss by mining on laptop, firstly you can mine some coins but you can't make money and you damage your computer.
Maybe mining easy coins like BCN, while you are anyway working on your laptop could be a thing, where not much hash is needed?
I tried with my old smartphone on minergate. Never got BCN shares confirmed
Maybe it would work on laptop without crashing it but don't know.

You can mining from any laptop or even using smartphone, but it's not worth to try. Mining on this device only will harm your laptop or smartphone even you mine using GPU(laptop), your laptop will heat and not fast enough to solve algorithm. The best option is mining from computer, and then buy ASIC miner or GPU miner
I've tried it before... It didn't end well for me. Don't do it... rather get a GPU or two and build a little rig.
Ok thanks all

Don't do that, you'll never get profit mining with laptop. Mining needs pc with high spec and also electricity. The second thing about the cost, try to calculate first before decides to mine. The last one, I have been mining with laptop and the result not enough, even to pay the electricity bill. That's your laptop and your call, I only suggest calculate before doing, hope you understand. Good luck.
it is possible to mine altcoins with your laptop.
it may be profitable if your laptop is strong and you have a cheap electricity. and if you are mining a coin with a high price.
BUT as others said it is not wise to do it. one of the problems with mining is the heat. your GPU or CPU (different for different minings) will be working overtime and for long hours and that produces a lot of heat and not only that, but also it will reduce the life of your hardware.
this is why they say it is not a good idea.

gaming laptop can do that???
ok thanks all
so in conclusion, no profit is generated if using a laptop device...
then, what to do to start alt mining?

No it's going to make your laptop broken and the result you got won't be enough to cover the electricity, I ever try once to mine the results is so little and my laptop almost overheated, you need cpu to mine, laptop can't handle the mining activity
never profit mining use laptop
youre laptop can die, and result from mining not enough to buy laptop again

No, your laptop is not powerful enough and moreover the extreme heat that it will generate will make it die slowly. Forget about this idea if you want to still have a laptop.

yes, laptop makers will profit from you breaking your computer :-)
Bad idea, it's a waste of time. Only way is laptop mining on hard drive Storjcoin.
