No one really mines ETH... There are way more profitable coins to mine. I dont see your correlation with GPU Mining Dying....

I got my numbers wrong last time so lets try again. Lets convert nethash to number of gpus, for simplicitys sake for example rx470

Some most popular coins amount gpu-miners - zcash, monero, etc

Zcash     Nethash 335 Mh/s    Hashrate per gpu  260 h/s     Number of rx470 eqivalent gpus   1,300,000
Monero   Nethash 250 Mh/s    Hashrate per gpu  660 h/s     Number of rx470 eqivalent gpus      380,000
ETC        Nethash 8 Th/s        Hashrate per gpu  26 Mh/s     Number of rx470 eqivalent gpus      307,000

And ETH: Nethash 100 Th/s  Hashrate per gpu  26 Mh/s       Number of rx470 eqivalent gpus   3,850,000

So, claim that noone is mining ETH isnt exactly true.

risk it or leave it but stop this bullshit im getting headache
