No, you can mine Bitcoin on your GPU or CPU. It will work.

Yes it will work. But it will be so slow that you won't ever do anything useful with it, so in practice it doesn't work.

Go mine Ethereum or Monero instead.

They said it didn't work. That's all.

I was just correcting that. Bitcoin isn't unable to be run on GPUs or CPUs.

I think that's important to point out.
