The Good & Bad Of Cryptocurrency Mining

Mining cryptocurrencies is a great activity since you will be using your electricity, time and
resources to generate money in the form of Bitcoin or other cryptocurrenies. The process has
benefits, advantages and dis-advantages depending with the cryptocurrency value, cost of mining and other factors as noted below:


• As the cryptocurrency gains mining momentum as many more people get involved it becomes harder and harder to mine at a lower cost and effort thereby for some the returns will have a lower profit margin.


• Cloud mining comes at a cost as the returns are shared thus you will get lower profits than if you had your own large mining hardware and the mining block despite the simple mining process.


• Also if you decide to take the cloud mining route, it simply means you are mining using other peoples resources that you don't have full control over to maximize on the hashing power, extra tweaks to the software for maximum returns etc.. thus you are limited in your mining efforts.


• However the best part of cloud mining is that once you buy the mining plan you start mining quickly actually almost instantly depending with the company.


• That said in the above points, when you go for the route of mining using your own hardware it means you will have to source the equipment and will also have to make sure you set-up a reliable mining centre less affected by power outages, faulty equipment etc... to have good returns.


• Some challenges faced by those mining cryptocurrency with their own mining hardware are the usual hardware maintenance and configuration processes to provide you with a guaranteed up-time and higher payout. The machines produce high levels of noise while busy mining that you will need to get accustomed to and with the extreme heat produced by these machines you will need cooling system. Other requirements will be a backup generator, then there is the higher electricity bills from the operating machines. The best part is that once you have set-up your mining hardware, you will solely benefit from the outputs or you will be the only owner of the mined coins and no sharing with any other person.
