Mining vs. Trading
If you are a techie, mining cryptocurrency is probably your first choice. You probably already have some equipment to get a taste of mining but are still wondering if this endeavor deserves the huge investment in better mining equipment. Here are some of the advantages of mining to consider while making up your mind.
Even though mining does have its risks, it’s still less risky than trading. For instance, when the prices of the currencies you mine drop big time, you might never repay your investment. You can also lose money if the electricity costs are higher than the value of what you mined. However, you can always sell your equipment for cash (though maybe not at a profit), while in trading if the coins in your portfolio lose value, you are left with nothing.
