How much does it cost to mine 1 Ethereum?

27, the estimated daily profit for an Ethereum miner using a single GPU was $4.59 . For Feathercoin, by way of comparison, miners were estimated to lose $0.58 per day. Obviously, to generate a significant amount of profit, you’d need to host a large number of GPUs using these calculations.

At a price of roughly $2,800 per ETH (at the time of writing), that’s quite a bit of value, but it only works if you actually solve a block. For all but the most dedicated of mining operations, the steady payouts that come from joining a mining pool are a far safer approach.
