Was outdated the day it was published

To start, this book is what it says it is: Cryptocurrency mining for dummies. It makes a respectable attempt at breaking down the core concepts of crypto and mining with enough detail that a total beginner could come away with enough knowledge to know what else they need to research and learn to actually get into mining.

While this book does have good general information, most people will quickly realize that it is easier and more cost effective to simply invest in crypto using an exchange as opposed to building a mining rig. Small-time miners will end up spending more on electricity to power their rig than they'll ever get back, as large corporation and miner farms have really cornered the market.

lastly, I would strongly suggest that someone who is determined to have this book get the physical version. Hearing the narrator rattle off random 50 character alphanumeric strings every time there is an example of a crypto wallet address is mind numbing and more distracting than informative.
