Hello, i'am very new to BitCoin.

I'am interested in mining with my Dell i7 Laltop which iam running linux on.

Could someone please explain to me what steps i need to follow in order to have my Arch Linux mine Bitcoins or LiteCoins because its easier?

I would highly appreciate your help.

Hey newbie ! Welcome to bitcoin and the world number one bitcoin forum, here you can find people that know a lot about bitcoin and will be willing to assist you to solve whatever question you may have.

Mining with laptop may burn your laptop itself. Moreover mining is not profitable right now, better stay away from all type of mining as of now.

Have you seen those people with their mining farms? they are making mad bitcoins. It depends on which level you are mining. It can be really profitable on the right spot, and with sufficient funds to buy good equipment.

I just see some business companies with their mining farms. They are making mad bitcoins, but need to pay all the equipments investiment. It's not so easy as it looks. And alone with low investiment it's not possible anymore to make profit mining bitcoins. Some people are still mining alt coins hoping to see its price increase in the future and sell for a reasonable price.

But mining with laptop isn't a good idea as was said before and I agree.
