Mining crypto currencies is a fun and rewarding hobby. There are basically two ways to mine these online coins. One way is to buy hardware to set up a mining rig at your home or office. This would include things like a blank mother board, a micro processor, RAM chip, high speed graphics cards, power station ect, ect. This is a lot for anyone just getting into this area. The knowledge to assemble and run this equipment can be found on YouTube but is not that easy to follow. Some pros are: You own the equipment and it mines for you 24/7. Only invest once and it's yours forever. You get more hashing power per dollar invested. Some cons: The cost of electricity is like adding a refrigerator/freezer, the cost to keep your room cool (this equipment runs hot), it's noisy, if anything goes wrong mining stops until you figure out how to fix it, no bonus for telling anyone.
Another way to mine crypto is to buy mining contracts from companies that specialize in mining. I like to use Genesis Mining. Account set up is free and easy. Contracts vary but once your set up and pay, you will start receiving crypto coins of your choice straight into your digital wallet daily. The more hash power you purchase the more you will mine. Use coupon code RuY695 to receive a 3% discount on your purchase. That code is my affiliate code. You can use it for 3% off as many times as you like.
Once your set up on Genesis, you will have an affiliate code yourself. Offering it to people you talk to about mining will give them a 3% discount and you will receive a small bonus for referring. It is not MLM. There are no levels and YOUR code has to be used every purchase for you to receive any bonus hash power or bitcoin.
I choose to buy mining contracts and refer people I know to Genesis. Set it and forget it works well for me. I have no maintenance costs or time involved other than checking my account to see the action!
