In this post I will show you how to mine bitcoin using the CPU of your linux computer using a software called cpuminer.
- We are using Ubuntu server version 16. (64 bits)
- If you are looking for profit you should try to mine monero using your CPU (Check our blog posts)
- We are using the MINERGATE minig pool
- Minergate will charge you a small percentage of your mining profits, something like 1.5%
MINERGATE
First, you will need to create an account at MINERGATE
