Would i be able to mine with a gas or gasoline generator in my basement with no vent?
Do people rent a storage to mine? i'm located in michigan.
I don't think a generator is an option. Running it 24/7 would obviously mean you have to service it on top of catering for the gas costs. You will most like be mining at a loss, which does not make sense.
Not forgetting that you are putting your life at a risk.
Just shut down mining for now until you are able to use a better alternative. Use the money to just buy bitcoin as you wait.
