Hey @khimgoh! Thanks for your reply. I‘m happy to hear that you liked my post. Indeed, mining is more complex and less profitable than most people think. I believe that a lot of shady cloud mining services took advantage of the fact that people consider mining super profitable and promoted that idea even further since it serves their business. I absolutely agree that it helps to have a background in tech/computer science when getting into crypto. I think another advantage would be if you’re already familiar with trading and finances. I’m lucky enough to have a degree in computer science and it helped me quite a lot and sort of gave me a head start. I can only imagine how people with no background in computer science or finance/trading must feel when getting into crypto.
