I want to start mining Bitcoin using my computer's CPU. Can someone guide me on how to do it? What software do I need to install? Is it still profitable to mine Bitcoin with CPU? Are there any risks involved in CPU mining?

- Apr 30, 2022 · 3 years agoAt BYDFi, we recommend using specialized mining hardware such as ASICs for Bitcoin mining. While it is technically possible to mine Bitcoin using your computer's CPU, it is not a cost-effective solution. The mining difficulty has increased exponentially, and CPU mining is no longer competitive. If you're serious about mining Bitcoin, investing in ASICs or joining a mining pool would be a more viable option. However, if you're interested in learning about the mining process, you can still experiment with CPU mining on test networks or mine other cryptocurrencies that are CPU-friendly, such as Monero or Litecoin.
