I've always wondered how hard it is to mine monero. Any experience with mining it? Sounds like an interesting side project.
if you're interested in mining find a mining pool, solo mining's just not worth it, unless you have 6+ gpus

Alright mining pool got it on the hardware side of things Ive thought about building a raspberry pi zero w cluster and running it off solar power low for awhile now you can get solar power kits. Their quite low maintenance and it'll be running of free electricity. I imagine it would take an awful while as to earn my money back though. Probably not worth it
