Is Bitcoin mining still happening or this is relevant only for new Crypto currencies ?
As you are a newbie, i wish you are not reffering to Cloud-mining. Comments above resumed the actual situation of bitcoin mining. Note that solo mining wasn't profitable since a long time. However, you can still try with some altcoins if you consider investing a large budget to cover costs of powerful rigs and electricity.
