Is Ethereum worth mining?

In spite of complaints about high gas fees, Ether miners in 2021 earned over $3 billion more than their Bitcoin counterparts. The report by Arcane Research revealed, “Ether miners have earned $17 billion in 2021, while the Bitcoin miners have earned $13.6 billion.”

Ethereum mining has emerged as a great way for individuals with powerful graphics cards (GPUs) to make some money while they aren’t using their PC. With congestion on the Ethereum network driving up gas fees, mining profitability has been fairly decent for solo miners although the average profitability has seen a dip.

Since mining through Ethereum is faster than Bitcoin’s network , that means it consumes less electricity and power and saves money too. As the value of the currency grows, fewer tokens can be mined through one block.
