dash: GPU Miners future after ETH transition to Proof-of-Stake
Web Developer
What would miners do after the transition? Choose another, less-known project or abandon the GPU mining?
In my opinion, the GPU miners (ETH miners) have 2 option after ETH move to PoS. 1. ETH miners can mine other crypto currency such BTC, LTC, DASH, etc. 2. ETH miners can move to become Ethereum node validator. More efficient, clean and cheaper than mining. 3. Become ETH stakers. It can help secure the ETH network.
Will the loss of so many miners affect the value of GPU mining projects?
Not at all, because many project still use PoW to maintain the network, and the miners still can mine Crypto.
Is it worth being a miner if we don't have any hardware? Why?
Of course not, because for mining Crypto need at least 1 hardware like ASIC or GPU to mine crypto. You can rent hashpower on Miningrigrentals or Nicehash but the cost is more than the profit you get. It is based on my experience.
