i'm not sure everybody is aware in this discussion: mining Bitcoin is only 
profitable using special hardware, and nowadays it needs to be deployed next to 
powerplants and oil wells to use their waste energy/gas, or next to renewable 
sources like geothermal.

the standard bitcoin tools are not relevant for mining.
