As much as I like bitcoin, mining it is becoming increasingly pointless as time goes on


The maximum number of bitcoins is 21 million.

I know there were a couple of big bubbles that dropped about 2 years ago, but have there been many recently?
Unless you have a mega-powerful rig, is there even money in mining it to make it worthwhile?

Basically you make the computer try to solve really hard problems. When you find a solution to the problem, you can exchange that solution for a bitcoin, which is used as currency.

this seems kind of pointless unless you have some serious hardware

iirc a bitcoin is like $270 usd so you probably get like 0.09 bitcoins per math problem thing

I think on generic/lower spec pcs the electricity to run your pc can cost more than your output is worth.

when i looked at what a 7770 could do that i had laying around it wasn't impressive, something of around 100 - 150 dollars a year
and that was already awhile ago, its gone down since
