Sadly, I've been so discouraged from attempting to mine anything. I was looking forward to a new and exciting hobby. But I'm 3 or more years too late and even with cheap electricity, I still feel it would be hard to turn a profit, even for fun. So just for shits and giggles, I use miner gate and just slowly watch an exciting hobby die.

Don't use miner gate or any other software that promises you "maximum profit" grab the software for the algo, choose a pool and mine a coin that you want, then you will be a hobbyist miner. I have done well mining ethereum over the last few months, im very small time and have mined enough to pay for 5 gpu cards plus other parts.

It's almost over, most likely never to return. Hardware investment to mine for profit is a pipe dream.

The most profitable coin to mine was the Ethereum, but it is not now. It will also become PoS next year.
