i will love to hear opinions from everyone, do you think its worth it? should we risk mining the cryptocurrency ?
No! For me, mining of cryptocurrency takes a large capital which I have not. If I will mine cryptocurrency, I may take only one of it, that is bitcoin. I don't want to be a miner since I want to spend my full time at trading only. However, if I will gain a large amount of money. I will try to mine cryptocurrency. Experience is what I want here than earning.

The issue here is not just whether you are risky or not, but whether you have enough money to buy a bitcoin digging system or to pay for electricity.

The risks of getting involved or engaged in bitcoin whether it is investment or mining is already there since you start engaging on it. Once you got in, then just continue what you are doing just like when you are holding your bitcoin even if the market is really looking bad.

It's profitable but it depends if you have a lot of server to mining because those video I've  watch regarding of mining they have I think 500 to 1000 server so that is why they earning bitcoin as much as they expect but the risk here is the maintenance of your server you expense also a lot of money for the maintenance and cooling machine for those hardware for not easy to overheat and continues  to mining.

It depends... Mining Bitcoin is profitable for those who can access very cheap electricity and hardware. That is the start. Then you have to find a place to run your hardware. Depending on how large the operation will be? This is another cost. Then you need to know what you are doing, so theres a lot of learning in the process. Good luck!

Nowadays it is only possible to mine bitcoin with specific machines dedicated to industries, due to the difficulty of mining, the way is to go to the Altcoins.

Dont do cloud mining. If you want really to be a miner you need to prepare the infratructure and for now mining bitcoin will cost you a lot of moneybin front. But it is safest way then u throw ur money to cloud mining.almost all cloud mining will be scam or using ponzi scheme.

Bitcoin mining is not good now because difficulty level is increasing day by day and expense on bitcoin mining is increasing but very less rewards is getting from mining. There is so many opportunity in the market to get the profit and invest in the market for long time.

solo mining is so risky and can destroy all your money "Better to invest in bitcoin"
So do not be enthusiastic and risky in solo mining, it is better to calculate the cash level, profits and losses, especially since havling will be within 3 years.
So if the electricity is cheap, the weather is cold, and you can mine in groups and you want to take a risk, do it.
group mining is good if you have knowledge and low fee power supply

Without mining bitcoin it would be a problem in the bitcoin network,
so I have been told. On the other hand I dont like mining bitcoin manually
it cost too much electricity expense, I would rather do could mining from legit company.

If you are able to buy hardware cheap, have a space to run the hardware and really cheap electricity, you can start doing the math.

There are a lot of coins out there, major ones already have ASICs and they all made in China, you need to add that into account because you might need to pay taxes when you receive it.

I think really cheap electricity is most important if you want run the mining. And make sure you have the skill too.

It is worth it if you are able to create an efficient mining farm which usually takes a lot of resources and effort, but if you are planning to join and invest in mining pools then I would say it is somewhat risky after hearing what happened to nice hash, where they said they were attacked by hackers which makes all of its investors lose their money I suggest it is better to mine individually if you can.

Do you mean mining illegally?) Seriously, I don't think it's worth doing. Unless you are wealthy enough to make a mining farm. Instead, why not speculate on BTC rate? Right now seems to be quite safe.

Mining is my main objective. Part of my profits from trading are being set aside to finance a basic mining rig. Worst cast scenario, I have a kickass gaming rig.

With today's bitcoin prices, maybe it is viable, but as for me, I wouldn't risk mining bitcoins now because how much the electricity costs in our country and how much a mining PC or an ant miner is. The thing is, the electricity bill and maintenance plus the inital cost would be too much for a proper bitcoin investment.

I do not see any risk in bitcoin. Especially not you, but China for the most part. You can risk only if you buy it. And if there is such a question about risk, then do not buy.

Mining is a way to produce any new type of cryptocurrency. And in bitcoin, it's a way to confirm our transactions so there should be people who are mining to get profit while helping us with our transactions to get confirmed. The risk maybe that OP is talking is about the high electricity and volatility of the hardware, taking care of it is an easy thing if you have set up your farm properly.

We can mine bitcoin also but what about resources you should have proper hardware, electricity and infrastructure all at cheap price than only you think and that also not of btc but alt coins more over government permission is main thing in india its not allowed     
In short you need to have a very large investment in order to start mining bitcoin and i would say it is better to purchase the coin rather than mining bitcoin,but you can look at alt coins to mine ,why do you think that India does not give permission for mining as i do know some fellow peers that mine in India and i am not aware of any ban.

I am not sure about India's laws either, but I read an article last week that basically said India has not made any ruling on Bitcoin because as with a lot of new ideas, India likes to wait and see first. But again, I don't pay much attention to reading about India law.

 I think you should consider profitability first before you go into laws because if you are not going to turn in profit with your mining then its better not to risk a beef with the government. I think any serious miner in our times will consider going to china and not India.
