I've had some real trouble and pain alternately mining among various alt-coins after the Ethereum merge. For the time being, it looks like there are no stable and profitable coins that last long. I'm going to shut it down for now, but I'm a little uncertain about what to do with these GPU rigs. They are a bunch of RTX 3060ti and 3080s (bought them quite expensive before).

Also at the same time, I also saw some posts saying that ZK mining may replace the previous eth pow mining in the future

I would like to know, are there any projects that have already adopted this algorithm now, or roughly when will ZK mining be adopted on a large scale?

I'm reading the article. ZK mining sounds shortsighted. It's not FPGA or ASIC resistant. And just because navmine or w/e says they "believe" it will take time before FPGA and ASIC catch up we all know that isn't true. Based on experience, FPGA is very fast and ASIC can be just as fast if the juice is worth the squeeze.

We already have a mining algorithm that is very good for GPUs and not very good for FPGA or ASIC: ProgPoW.

And when combined with polyphasic engineering to swap between various ubiquitous general purpose processing (CPU, GPU, Mobile processors) there are already better solutions then ZK mining which is acknowledged as mineable by FPGA and ASIC.
