You could either use a dedicated ASIC machine, graphics cards, or a C64 to mine Bitcoin. That’s right, this computer is powered by a 8-bit MOS Technology 6510 microprocessor, 64KB of 8-bit-wide dynamic RAM, 1KB of 4-bit-wide static color RAM, and 20KB of ROM, but one caveat, it will take you countless lifetimes to mine even a single coin. Why? It’s only capable of achieving a hash at a rate of every 3.5 seconds, or about 0.3 H/s.
For comparison an ASIC miner achieves terahashes per second, but on the bright side, installing a SuperCPU accelerator on the C64 does increase hash rate slightly. On a related note, anyone interested in mining cryptocurrencies for a living should definitely consider picking up the upcoming Antminer E9, which is claimed to be faster than 32 GeForce RTX 3080s working together simultaneously mining for Ethereum.
