Cryptocurrencies are crying these days. Bitcoin hit $ 58,000 in February for the first time. Ether, the second largest cryptocurrency in the world, also hit a record high this year. Even dogecoin - a cryptocurrency created as a joke that doesn't have the same serious functionality and institutional support as bitcoin - jumped more than 50% last month after a tweet from Tesla CEO Elon Musk. It's easier than ever to buy a fraction of one bitcoin using apps like Coinbase. However, that's not the only way investors get their hands on their cryptocash. Investors can also mine for digital currency. CNBC went to a blockchain production studio in Brooklyn to learn how to mine bitcoin's biggest rival, ether, before the Covid-19 pandemic began. #Cryptocurrency
