Are you guys using your GPU's to mine?

I never had any interest in mining but a couple of months ago I was listing to the WAN show and they made some comment about why are general people with single gpus not mining and I thought to myself why am I not mining. So I checked the profitability of a 2060 (my gpu) and it was pretty high, about 250rs per day and since I wasn't gaming much I installed nice hash which is incredibly easy to use and in less than 2 months I have made 10k, more than half the value of a 2060 in a normal market.
I know the value of my card will decrease since it is being used for mining but I guess that won't me more than a couple thousands.

So my question is are you guys mining and if not then why?

Also if anyone decide to use Nicehash remember that the minimum withdrawal is 0.001 btc or about 4.2k so you can't mine for a day or two and withdraw the money, you will have to accumulate 0.001btc before you can withdraw it.

P.S: If and when I get a 3060ti/3070 at their mrp you can expect a sweet deal on this 2060.

Are you using nicehash wallet or your own wallet? What are the withdrawal fees? Also how do ypu convert your crypto to INR? How much fees for that?

I never felt the itch to try mining. Most likely because I know that it won't be that profitable with an RTX 2060.
Also, I feel it's not worth it considering the electricity usage, GPU heat generated, and upkeep effort.

Nicehash wallet
What are the withdrawal fees?
It keeps changing, I paid 15rs for the first time and 140rs the second time, both time withdrawal amount was around 5k.
Also how do ypu convert your crypto to INR? How much fees for that?
I use Zebpay, transfer btc from nicehash wallet to Zebpay wallet and then convert btc to INR on Zebpay. Zebpay charges 10rs for transferring money to bank.

But what if you use the churned out money for better components, that's what I plan to do. I'm pretty sure I can mine enough money on 2060 to buy a 3060ti by the time mining craze die down.

I also felt the same way, I thought it was to complex and profits would be nonexistent but they are surprisingly good even after factoring the electricity cost and it is incredibly easy if you use nice hash.
I just don't have the interest.
Which GPU do you have?
