Since January 1,2017 has anyone ever hit a block of bitcoin solo mining on a laptop with a usb miner like gekkoscience 2pac?
This could be life changing money for $100 investment
I think it's too late to use usb miner. It's not profitable anymore and maybe you send the rest of your life mining without reaching 1 btc.This could be life changing money for $100 investment
lol, Don't think they were ever profitable. USB are sold as a gimmick because the ASIC chips are small and sort of "because you can" attitude and novelty. I remember sales for bundles of the first (antminer?) with a multiport USB hub, power and a USB fan, their price was too high to return profits. Really they were intended as fun/keeping the network distributed. They are fun, interesting way to get into mining, but chances of finding a block? $100 on local lottery (or bitcoins
) a better bet.
