Hi guys last year i started to get into this when it jumped up to 1100 or so, and was giving some btc to a guy lmontrose that was going to get the new machines, well i just came back from a deployment, looks like he failed and made off with some of my btc

But i would like to know how, if its worth mining and what are the best ways to do it now, i have not even looked at whats out in the last year.

im guess GPU are not worth it anymore, and last i heard 3 was fastest, not sure, and now that btc is really cheap are the machines still expensive?

thanks for any help

First, thanks for your service and welcome back from deployment.
Second, sucks that you lost some coin.
Third, take a look at the thousand or so threads asking this very question. General consensus is that at this point in time the era of home mining, even with ASIC hardware, is over. Don't get me wrong, you can still mine, and there's still hardware to buy, but you're going to be doing it at a loss.
