So my brother asked me about investing in some form of bitcoin, "Etherium" specifically. Is it better to just buy it and sit on it or is it possible to start mining it with a spare rig I have to get a feel for how it all works. Is their stock in Etherium or is the stock the actual coin?
I have many dual to hexa core intel systems lying around as well as gtx 980ti, 970, 2x 7870, 5850, 6850 ect not in use, and a 12 kilowatt solar system rolling the meter back faster than I can use it in the summer.
I guess my plan would be a dual core intel and the 2 7870s crunching 24/7 to learn about the whole ecosystem. And if it was fun/profitable expand from their.
Any thoughts or advice, is it even worth the effort.
Thanks for your advice and time.
