Hi guys,

I like the idea of crypto currency and thought it would be fun to try mining. I have been reading up on the more popular currencies, I.e BTC and litecoin. It seems mining for profit is pointless unless large scale and using specialised hardware, I would like to see at least some cents worth.
I have Mini itx size pc if any random coins still use gpu mining, otherwise I thought perhaps a Raspberry and usb miner like Antminer U3 etc.
Is there any coins that are not too difficult to mine and is not totally volatile? As stated I'm not looking to make profits, just experience budget mining and see something in a wallet and I would like it keep is small and quiet like a raspberry project etc.
Thank you

Hardware mining is so 2013. Have not you heard of cloud mining ?

Cloudmining is just handing your money to companies who promise that they are "mining" on real hardwares and promising real returns. Hardware mining is much more profitable than cloudmining, believe or not. Cloudmining incurs more expenses than self owned mining since maintenance fees are high and electrical fees only take a small part of the entire fees. Cloudmining also have more risk.
