Mining from Laptop is possible?

[FrancescoRanzani 68]

I'm new to the forum and I'm recently approaching the mining part. I know for a fact that you need very powerful hardware components and a high-performance PC to mine Bitcoin. But to mine other crypto values is it possible to do it from normal PCs or laptops? For example, to mining Ethereum or Litecoin or Neo are there software that can be installed to get you started?

Hello friend, you can do it, the problem is that it will not give you much profit, also that if you do it with the pc or laptop that you use to study or play, it will break progressively, I recommend that if you are going to mine with a normal computer you only use it for this.

[Vera26 209]

Mining form laptop is totally possible and even me myself has done it but only thing is that the earnings on laptop is very small and you need to have a very good GPU power. I wont say mining on a laptop is good because you need a very expensive laptop and you need to pay electricity cost which is not really profitable because the laptop can easily get bad

Yes, it's possible to start mining in normal PC but it's not recommendable unless you do virtual mining like MINEX in yobit. Mining in a normal PC will lead to a bad results because your PC will damaged. There are special mining machines you can search on Amazon but they have high cost and they use a lot of electricity.

Offcource u can, but dont expect to make much unless you have a very powerfull computer, but even if u have i dont recommend you to mine with your computer, becuse at the end u will lose your computer and didnt make that much money.

It might damage your laptop, the best approach is to make a mining rig since it can guess the very complex problem in a shorter time compared when you use your laptop or personal computer. So it is not advisable to use either your laptop or you personal computer in mining any cryptocurrency, since aside from the fact that it might damage your gadgets, you only gets a little amount of crypto since the gpu in laptop and computer is just one and don't have so much power to do the job, but if you insisted then anticipate what will happen next.

It is possible to mine on regular computers, but beware of fraudulent sites. I tried many sites, most of them were scams. I advise you to trade or invest because mining sites have low profits or work on the forum profits are greater than mining.

@Calvinpriva You are right that GPU/CPU mining will damage your PC or laptop. Therefore it is recommended that you do virtual mining like on Yobit or cloud mining. There are many cloud mining sites out there that let you mine Bitcoin, Ethereum and many other cryptocurrencies and they don't do any damage to your laptop. BUT BEWARE @FrancescoRanzani MOST OF THE CLOUD MINING SITES ARE SCAMS AND THEY EAT YOUR INVESTMENT.

I know yes its posible but we have to really be careful because there is a lot that can happen , we need very strong computers and make sure that this computers do work perfectly without really much of a problem I think gamers laptops can work because usually they are very powerful and today we need to really be good in what we are doing 

[Irungu 4299]

I think its a little bit painful so we need to work and put together everything in the right perspective we have to really be working as ahrd and know which is the most powerful kind of strategy to use and in the end everything can be powerful so we need to work as hard and know which PC is better

Yes exactly @Cryptic is possible but it might damage the Laptop. I think now is not like before with any Laptop or computer you can mine and you will collect a lot profits. Now if you haven't a special machine to mine or a potential computer don't try will not be profitable, at the end you will find the losses!

Yes you can mine with your laptop even from your mobile devices but i will suggest you to don't mine it from these devices. Because mine is very heavy process which can drain your battery and processer.

Yep @Dark Shadow its better to do virtual mining or cloud mining because they'll not damage your PC. And of course, we should be careful when we want to start cloud mining because many are scam, and a lot of people already lose their money because if them.

Mining on a computer will not give you as many benefits as a mining team already specialized in the case, of course your computer or laptop will lose performance over time, but if you want it only to mine you can do it and I recommend that you mine Zcash, Dogecoin or Monero to start.

[Nicole018 4548]

You can mine using any kind of laptop or desk top computer. The only needs to have the required specifications in your laptop. This can be done by searching the required instalations that needs to be installed. Mining is a really profitable venture which can help you to make lots of profit. Make sure that you do all the steps correctly so that you would be able to continue without much consequences.

[mohamedpc1 2213]

I do not advise you to mine on your computer or phone because mining requires a powerful device in addition to that it consumes a large amount of electricity if you do not risk that. You can buy a mining device online without the need to use the power of your computer or phone. Always try to search for the right ways .

[velasco19 1753]

As you say it yourself requires equipment with specialized hardware, of course you can mine from your Laptop the problem is that you will generate very little and you will end up wearing out your equipment. I do not recommend doing it.

[pacific 2268]

Yes, it's possible to mine through Laptops. But, I wouldn't recommend you to do mining with your Laptop, just because laptops are not able to generate good hash rate required for profitable mining. As far as I am concerned, you can't generate more than 20h/s for bitcoin mining, and it would take more than a week just even to collect a single dollar. So, that's not even a worth running your laptop for hours and mining few cents or a single dollar per week. Even if you compare it with your laptop maintenance cost or electricity cost, then you will be rather at loss, , profit is a long way to make with your laptop PC and that's not even practical if you'd like to mine with your PC.

[Shubham kakade 556]

Yes you can use laptop for mining its realy works fast and its better way to earn free miming laptop  or pc is big screen but mobile are small so laptop is better for mining no need any work only watching screen and relax 

[Sallujam 886]

Yeah everything is possible but i am not much aware about the difference between hardware or power which people are saying I'm not getting it that why not you get the good profit on laptop or cp which you are getting on your smartphone? If anyone have a good answer which can satisfied me must reply to my question ❓.

[Noghran 0]

Actually, I've never tried this before, my friend
But I have read about people doing laptops mining and knew that it was entirely possible
But the problem is that the returns they get are low
And you will make a great effort that is not commensurate with the profit that you will get

[taslima6 6]

, I recommend that if you are going to mine with a normal computer you only use it for this.

@FrancescoRanzani Mining on PC is obsolete, it is very difficult to find a coin to mine on PC, I recommend that you do not use your laptop for that because you are only going to get it damaged and you are not going to make any profit, to mine ETH you must have a GPU rig, at least 6 cards to make it cost effective to do so, there are other currencies that can be mined with GPUs as well.
The mining depends on the cost you have in electricity and the amount of coins you get with your device so that you can have some profit.

[Shehraz bhatti 1703]

 Yes dear feiend we can do mining from the laptop easily and there  is a benifit for mining from the laptop we can play music and study also from the laptop at same time We can  watch movies also so  usage if the laptop for mining is Simple and best for everyone there is no  condition to use mobile for mining we can use laptop.

[SuperCrypto 7193]

Centralized processors are not financially feasible in the mining process, and today it is difficult to mine bitcoin using a personal computer, but it is possible to use the computer power of your device in exchange for obtaining bitcoin through many sites and services that provide this.
