Minergate - The Easiest Way To Mine Bitcoin On A Home Computer
Minergate is by far the easiest way to mine bitcoin on a home computer, especially after nice hash got hacked and is no longer available.
All you need to do is visit the minergate website, download the software and you will be mining within minutes.
I have been using minergate for a couple of years with no problems, and i like the inbuilt multi coin wallet and the ability to do merged mining (mining for a second coin in the background as a bonus).
You can easily choose how many processors to use per coin, mine with a CPU and GPU, mine multiple coins at once, and mine from multiple devices.
For home mining with your CPU and graphics card, you can't mine bitcoin itself, you need to mine altcoins and then convert those into bitcoin.
For CPU mining, it's best to mine Monero. If you have a good graphics card with more than 3GB of ram, you can mine Ethereum easily with minergate, and then all you need to do is send those coins to an exchange like binance, exmo or CEX and cash it in for bitcoin or any other altcoin you want.
Thanks for letting us know about minergate and hope to install a good CPU and start mining.
I have a couple old computers that I am going to put to work using miner gate. They won't get me a whole lot, but they aren't earning their keep now!
you need an x64 architecture to do that with Minergate. Depending on how old your devices are, it won't work..
Correct!
Well let me tell you.. i ran minergate for only a couple of months, on and off.
But if you look at what i earned, it's now worth around 700USD.
Thats pretty damn good if you ask me.. i should have kept it running all the time on multiple computers lol.
See if you hold onto the coins.. what you mine a year ago is now worth alot more.
The people who first mined bitcoin didn't earn anything it was like 6 cents per bitcoin, and no one even wanted to buy them.. but what they mined on their home computers was actually 10,000 a day or something crazy.
I got some screenshots of my earnings in this article i wrote - http://blogforbitcoin.com/whats-the-best-alternative-to-nice-hash
