I am looking to mine on my laptop at night to try get enough to fund at least part of a mullvad VPN account. I need a miner and wallet that doesn't care about age and will let me turn mining off when I'm using my laptop.

What would you recommend?

@sleepybisexual @shortwavesurfer P2pool is the easiest, they have 4 step instructions to follow, easy peasy, just a command line copy paste. Would recommend that because they don't tax you in their mining pool, but I would recommend to donate atleast tiny percent, kinda feels bad though. 😅

Also note that its impossible to benefit from it, not just p2pool but the other rest, but be minded that mining it helps their network, so it's more like of a "good will".

@sleepybisexual @shortwavesurfer "impossible to benefit"
why mine monero?

To buy art comissions,
To buy online services like VPN(Mullvad), Cloud Servers (Vultr), In some lucky part of the places they sell foods.
Monerujo, easiest IRL(In real life)transaction, and can convert monero(XMR) to any coins like btc, eth, ltc, dash, doge coins, because of sideshift.ai service and it is opensource no pyramid scheme and no potential malicious closed source codes. It also has QR scan codes.

@Metatron Did you just make a new account? You kinda smell fishy, anyway wait for your node to sync, most common problems I've encountered.
