Building a Crypto Mining Rig

Building a Crypto Mining Rig

Getting involved in crypto mining means you’ll be able to generate coins on your own with no need to purchase them from someone else. You’re going to need a powerful rig, and even then, there’s no guarantee to make money from this endeavor.

Most cryptocurrency mining computers rely on very powerful GPUs, costing hundreds to thousands of dollars.

You’ll need to spend money on the electricity that powers your computer. Depending on which coin you want to buy and the competition you have  ( + other variables), you could end up spending more money to operate your rig than you make with the mining.

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!
