In this video I take you through my experience mining bitcoin (BTC) using a cloud mining service (I used Genesis Mining), which I think is still probably the easiest setup for mining bitcoin. However, we also go over another very easy solution, the coinmine one plug and play miner. I also go through a high level analysis of why I don’t think any of these “easy” bitcoin mining solutions are worth it and I talk about what it takes to profitably mine bitcoin in 2021 including one case study of a successful mining operation based here in the USA.
My hope with this video is that by explaining what bitcoin cloud mining is and giving you a mental model of what successful and unsuccessful miners look like, I can help you not make the same goofy mistakes that I (the certified miner boy) made when it came to bitcoin mining when I got started in bitcoin and cryptocurrency back in 2017.
