Where is the big risk?

Having a couple GPU's mining is considered a big risk?
Every investment has risks-- large or small.

When the risks pan out and payout, then you have taken a risk others may not be willing to take, and came out ahead.
 
Well I know I'm not going to be very popular after this.

I don't like cryptocurrencies, they are just helping the crap of society. You might think because all you're doing is running a program that checks transactions, that you're not doing anything illegal or bad. But the truth is the bulk of the transactions done with cryptocurrencies are to support illicit activities, such as drug and weapon trafficking.

I know you have your own benign reasons for doing what you do, "I do actually buy stuff with it", "I donate money with it", "I am not a criminal" etc...well sure, there are anecdotal times where cash or credit cards weren't convenient for you. But do you really think that petty activity like that has fueled the success of these currencies?

Please, at least recognize that you are helping, be it in a small way, the garbage of the world to do their hideously horrific activities, and I hope it doesn't ever affect you.

Actually the bulk of corruption is funded in USD, that is if you want to argue facts.

I just wanted to put the clamps on some of the histrionics in this thread. Telling someone who has two computers mining " You're taking an awful big risk here " is just laughable, especially on a website where people drop thousands of dollars on computer parts to play video games.
