The future fate of crypto mining is worrisome, did I start this journey too late?
Someone one, somewhere in 2017 was saying the same about mining Bitcoin 
The ASICs seemed too expensive, and they were not sure if they could make profit in mining after 2017 and here we are in 2022, with some folks making huge in 2021 both in ETH and Bitcoin.
Morale; Never give up, Keep investing in mining coins you think have future potential, "Fortune favors the bold"
