#Bitcoin #Mining is really simple, anyone can do it, you just need to follow a few simple steps and you will be hashing in no time!
1) Get a miner (most tend to try out those old school rigs like the S9 antminers).
2) Plug the power cord into the miner and switch on the power.
3) Wait 3 minutes.
4) Hold the reset button down for 10 seconds until the light flashes.
5) Wait 3 minutes.
6) Plug the ethernet cable into the miner and your internet router.
7) Use your PC or Mobile Phone and login to your router (should be instructions on your specific router on how to do this).
8) There will be a list of IP addresses that identify what is connected to your router, one of them will be for your miner.
9) If you don't know which one it is, just try them all until you find the right one. You can do this by typing in those IP addresses one by one into your web browser at the top of the page. Eventually you'll hit the right one and a greyish screen will load and it will request a username and password. Type in 'root' for each one and hit enter.
10) Now you need to choose which mining pool you want to join and contribute your hashing power to. I think Braiins Pool is the only one that lets you cash out in sats which is less than a penny.
11) Once you have signed up to a pool of your choice, they will give you a few details which can be copy and pasted into your #antminer page which you recently logged into.
12) Once you entered in those details, hit save and you should be #hashing within 10 minutes
