Is Bitcoin mining bad for your computer?

[MrGox 880]

Yes indeed, you can not make that at your home, for that you need some energy and absolutely a lot of money to pay that in every month. Because of that that is made by companies and others. 

[Meharba 192]

Of course! these days mining is become harder and harder and it would damage your computer.. there are specific devices for mining and these are better than computers of course but require a huge amount of electricity

No its not, not unless if your PC is not yet well build, I mean if the minimum specs aren't match to mining, a higher specs is needed for this one, so that it could be good for mining hash rate.

If you promise to use your computer directly, especially Bitcoin or strong currencies, yes, of course, this will harm your computer over the days, good luck 

[Nezar 7169]

You can mining through your computer and you will be exposed to danger and damage in a very short time so therefore if you want to get a successful mining process and verify acceptable profits you must buy very strong devices and provide a large energy source

[magd 5231]

According to my information, mining causes damage over time to the computer, but is it reasonable that mining causes harm to the computer if external processors with a cooling system are used? Please answer my question

I am currently planning to start this project and try to collect information before starting

[Zezo 306]

Yes, mining requires high-specification devices, while mining on your regular machine will definitely destroy it

[Brand1 1336]

I agree with you that mining using a computer that has a processor and a weak screen card is very bad. Therefore, if you want to use mining via a computer, you must add high-quality processors and graphics cards to it.

[metote 6]

On my intellect yes, but in case mining 24/7.

[Rickso 768]

i see many people are complaining about the hardware durability and it is right, but the most important thing that let pc mining not profitable anymore is that you will pay more in electricity than what you earn. so you are losing money other than reducing your computer life

Its mostly the heat.if it is running quite hot, which most laptops tend to do, it IS damaging the CPU. Try a good cooling mat if you really want to do it. Also, using 2 of 4 cores WILL run cooler than using all 4. But I guess I could repeat everyone else' advice: "Mining is no longer profitable on the CPU, don't do it." (Even though I do a little bit)

Yes its is since of the Warm issue conjointly the CPU control as mining using CPU is diverse from mining utilizing CPU since of Hashing Power.

[Beromnia 733]

Welcome with me
Years ago mining on a computer or using a screen card gave acceptable benefits, after 2016 the computer was not good enough for Bitcoin mining
In the year 2020 Bitcoin cannot be mining using a computer or screen card, an Antminer device must be purchased

[MrGox 880]

The heat and electricity costs can be bad for the monthly gain but it will worth to mine the cheap altcoins. There are alternative mining methods too, the world is going to change the POW to POS. Staking is the new way for mining the cryptocurrencies.

[gkapoxm 84]

Its bad to the wear of the cpu or gpu but there isnt many issues if you mine and get profit for that without overclocking too much.

[BTC Future 3946]

You won't be able to mine Bitcoin from your CPU. The ASIC miners are special equipment designed just for this job, to solve SHA-256 cryptographic equations, in order to mine a block that contains Bitcoin transactions, which is then broadcasted in the network for validation. Mining with CPU won't provide you any chance of succesfully mining a block, and you will waste electricity and damage your desktop's hardware.

[Ayush Singh 1175]

I don't think that mining of Bitcoin through your computer can cause any damages to it there are no such negative impact of mining any Crypto coins it just takes too much of time and it should be in a running mode to keep mining.

Through my personal experience, where I was using one of my devices to mine until it was damaged and it is currently working normally, but when I play a movie or game of medium quality the situation lasts for minutes and then the screen becomes black
Therefore, mining definitely exposes your machine to damage

Yes, mining damages devices and computers, because its specialty is not mining, and it cannot bear working with all the energy and power for long hours, and this will make it get damaged.

Bitcoin mining is impossible with a computer because the SHA-256 algorithm is not supported by CPUs. About mining other coins, there is no risks if your CPU have a good cooler = CPU fan = Ventirad.

Busted? Because of what? I think the root of the damage to a mining rig is due to external factors not from the use of the rig. I clean my rig regularly and provide enough air circulation to prevent heat buildup. Excessive overclocking can also cause damage but I think this is rare. 

[Michael0606 861]

That depends on what type of mining we are talking about, there is mining without block extraction without using your hadware, the so-called cloud mining, that there is no pwrp so they decided to call it, these without remote block extraction without compromising your device, right now I mine  on several pages and my cell phone remains the same.

[LeandroMesa 33]

So lets see, yes mining bitcoin in your computer is bad because for the bitcoin mining the programs need to solve a lot of difficult mathematicals calculations so I dont recomend the use of this kind of mining, and now we talk about cloud mining all of them are fake the mining of bitcoin is very difficult so all of them only pay you of what other people pay in the page for

[Sivuku 2]

If you are using your computer power's to use to mine bitcoins that's is bad, but if you use the computer to helping you to see your connected miners and how very much they mine that's good

[ahmedasd 192]

yes is not good to use cloud mining in you computer it can cave you some virus and make you computer slow so try to using mining in your phone

Mining using computer equipment is the most dangerous type of mining because your computers can be damaged, but cloud mining is never a threat to your machine or pc .
