GPU mining died when ethereum went POS(piece of shit). The good old days are far behind us. Either go into ASICs or DePIN.
I mean gpu mining could be resurrected one day but do you want to spend 2k euros on hardware that will be antiquated when(and if) GPU mining makes a comeback?
I reviews and first time miners who bought these graphics cards have already paid them off or have already recovered almost most of the money they spent on the purchase. And that happened in a year and a half, because the opportunities were there. And even after a year and a half, they have the most powerful gaming graphics card and another year and a half of warranty.
Ya, I think if you’re a gamer and want to buy a GPU anyway, being able to get a little better one and trying to recoup your costs with crypto is a bit of a gift. I’ve had a lot of gamers over the years laugh at me for telling them to mine crypto and as a result I hear about a lot of people’s regrets often these days.
In theory you can buy a 4090 video card for gaming and pay it off with mining in 3 years.
We spend 2000 dollars and earn every month 30-50 dollars, maybe sometimes 100 dollars.
But I consider such an idea very risky now, but maybe it will be relevant for 5090
