Is it still possible to mine #Monero with a raspberry Pi? I am curious because I stumbled on a video on it and I might make a mini miner that drips some XMR to me. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Yeah, buuuuut you'd be mining dust. 🤷🏾‍♂️

I don't mind, I want to build them so I can learn the basics of mining and where I can improve on. I also want to see if I can build a Node miner.

Go for it 🫡

So since its dust amount, would I be stuck not being able to move them?

I'm used to Bitcoins dust limit on its main layer and I'm learning more about XMR.

Yeah can move it, as long as you can afford network fees, which usually aren't much. My pi 4 is setup with randomx. It's probably doing about 250h, or so. Until I saw your post, I had forgotten that it was in my server rack. 😂

So around how much dust are you able to mine with a Pi? I want to see if its worth calling my Pi miner the dust pan. 😂

In the last 24hrs, at 277h, I've made 0.00002342 xmr 😁

Oh! That's way more than I expected, I definitely will start building a Pi then. 😂 I will call it the Dust Pan and their purpose is to gather XMR dust.

I thinking of setting up a money pi farm. I have a bunch of PI4s, and plan on my PI5s projects. Might be able to mine; in xmr; as I would; in sats; if I were to buy a bitaxe. 🤔🤔

Or you can use unmineable.com

If you're interested in joining a pool. I suggest https://pool.aterx.com they focus on low hashrate Monero mining. It's a small pool, but they've pretty cool, and helpful, peeps in their discord.

Can I run it on Raspberry Pis?

Maybe if you boot up into Linux and run it. But the hash would be so low.

Oh its okay if its low. I am trying to learn how to mine with something small before I try to move to a more specialized set up.
