I first heard about Bitcoin in early 2013 and decided the best way to learn about it would be to start mining. If you dont know anything about Bitcoin, check out the video below and [bitcoin.org](https://bitcoin.org/en/) for more.

Hardware in place, I decided to join a mining pool since my hash rate would be contributing such a small percentage of the entire Bitcoin networks computing power. I joined BTC Guild, which has since shut down due to security and regulatory concerns. [P2Pool](http://p2pool.org/), [Eligius](http://eligius.st/~gateway/) and [BitMinter](https://bitminter.com/) are some mining pools still in existence. [This CoinDesk article](https://www.coindesk.com/information/get-started-mining-pools/) provides more information about mining pools. At this point I just sat back and let the miner burn electricity. Was I making a profit? Only time would tell. Next update Ill summarize the profitability of mining with this hardware from December 2013 - July 2015.

With the exchange rate of Bitcoins to USD at the time of writing this, the Return on Investment (ROI) with a balance of 0.24359921 BTC is about negative (-) $896. Breaking even would require the exchange rate to reach $3,844 USD / BTC; historically speaking the highest was around $1,100 in late 2013. Never say never though, heres the [current price from CoinDesk](https://www.coindesk.com/price/bitcoin/).
