Even after a few days of volatility and callbacks, for Ethereum miners, it is only the difference between earning more and earning less. Mining can still continue. The price of ETH is still not high in the bull market, and the laptop has been mining at home for more than 200 days, basically paying back the cost.
The issues covered in this paper are as follows:
Why not directly configure the graphics card or mining machine and choose a laptop?
What laptop to choose?
How to dig? What are the benefits?
Why mine with a laptop?
The graphics card is out of stock, so it is not easy to buy;
The price of mining machines is soaring, so I don’t want to mine after a bull market with a notebook, just continue to use it as a game notebook or workbook;
Hosting mining machines is very troublesome for most of my friends, so I don’t want to host them anymore. I manage my own equipment and mine directly at home with my laptop.
At the current price of ETH, it is very interesting to mine at home with a laptop.
Hardware Configuration
for example:
for example:
Shenzhou's 3060 notebook is relatively powerful, with 40M computing power, 6500-7500 yuan.
ASUS’s 3070 may have low revenue from frequency locking, with a computing power of 42-45M, a bit more expensive, and the cost performance is not as good as 3060 notebooks.
3080 is also available.
Remarks for show operation: In fact, you can buy several notebooks with different graphics card models and brands at the same time, take them to your home, dig for a day or two, and see which one is more suitable for you (for example: the more profitable one with a shorter payback period is more suitable for you).
Risk reminder: Link network activation does not support unconditional return within 7 days. If you want to test multiple units, please ask about the return rules of Pinduoduo, JD.com and other platforms before purchasing.
This is the recent price of Pinduoduo. The previous price was about 6,500 yuan, but now it has increased by 1,000 yuan.

first step:
Turn off the firewall.
Set it to never power off.
Screen lock (after setting, turn off the screen to save power).
Delete the anti-virus software, and do not have private keys, bank card passwords, ID card information and other private information on the computer.
Otherwise, the following prompt will appear in the follow-up operation:

second step
Open this website (you can also choose other mining software):
Then run the software.
Click "Start Mining" in the upper left corner.
According to the settings in the figure, for example, if the currency to be mined is ETH, you need to choose a mining pool, such as f2pool (Fish Pool). The wallet is set to your own ETH wallet.
The electricity price shown here is incorrect. The electricity fee at home is 0.75 yuan/kWh (it may be different in different regions). In order to know your own profit more conveniently, you can modify the actual electricity bill, as shown in the figure below:
Click the arrow to set the actual electricity bill for your home.
Then, see the interface like this.
What are the benefits?
In the past two days, the price of Ethereum has been sluggish. The net income of a notebook of about 7,000 yuan is about 23 yuan after deducting the electricity fee every day. 7,000÷23=304 days, about 300 days to pay back.
However, the currency price of Ethereum will continue to rise in the bull market, or the network gas fee will skyrocket like a few days ago, and the income will be very good, basically more than 200 days (such as 150-250 days, 6-8 months) Then you can pay back the money, this time it is really paying back the money-returning a notebook.
