    *Ethereum mining. I don’t think GPU mining was ever profitable for bitcoin FWIW. I do think it’s ridiculous seeing 3 year old GPUs being sold for just -20% off MSRP even after clocking literal years of runtime

      Honestly, I never got into crypto enough to know the difference. I just know that was when the second hand market dried up and prices got absurd.

      Isn’t Ethereum using proof of stake now? I don’t think GPU mining exists for it these days.
