- Dec 29, 2021 · 3 years agoAt BYDFi, we recommend using specialized mining hardware instead of a CPU for mining cryptocurrencies. While it is possible to mine with a CPU, the profits are generally not worth the electricity costs. Specialized mining hardware, such as ASICs (Application-Specific Integrated Circuits), are designed specifically for mining and offer much higher hash rates and energy efficiency compared to CPUs. This allows miners to generate significantly higher profits. If you're serious about mining, we suggest investing in ASICs or other mining equipment. However, if you're just starting out or want to experiment with mining, using a CPU can be a good way to learn the basics and understand the mining process without making a significant investment.
