Hello, So I've seen alot of people talking about how they want to start mining but don't have a free system or money to make a rig...

Just use your current computer and mine freely....

 

One of the easiest ways to do this is with minergate http://minergate.com

 

All you do is download the program, Go to the smart miner tab, And press start mining whenever your away at work or school and bang some easy crypto. 

Now this won't make you rich. But it is some for lite playing with or just testing.

I removed the referral, as it's not allowed.

 

Minergate is a genuine alternative to nicehash for those that are interested, but it doesn't convert to bitcoins like nicehash does.

 

So you'll have to use their exchange to convert what was mined into bitcoins.

Sorry about that fairly new to ltt forums. Also It allows you to mine multiple currencies and with a crappy AMD CPU I make like 20 cents a day in monero so its not great but does have some benefits over nicehash

Not to burst your bubble but if you're mining Monero, it's better if you actually download a miner and point it to another pool instead of minergate because minergate steals about 50% of your hashrate. On my 1060, I used to be getting around 300H/s on minergate but after switching to another pool, I'm getting 600H/s. Just do a google search and you'll see a lot of reddits on minergate stealing people's hashrates.
