From Mining Gold, Diamonds, and Metals to mining Ethereum and another cryptocurrency we humans have covered a long way.
If you’re curious to learn about cryptocurrency mining, you’ve discovered the right place. I expect that you know what is Ethereum and cryptocurrency. Let’s began with the topic.

How much time does one Ethereum need to be mined?
Ethereum works on ‘Block-chain’ technology and the person who mines the block is known as miners. The Miner Computer helps in creating a block and add that block to ‘Ethereum Blockchain’. Miners need to invest their time and computing power to process transactions and thus, the block will be created.
One Ethereum takes almost 63.7 Days to mine for one GPU, It’s a long time. But it’s depended on your GPU’s performance, how much time you need, you can even take a half-year to mine just one Ethereum.
But if you invest in technology, then it could be faster. There are many GPUs that can mine Ethereum in a day, but it will cost you around 10,000 USD.
This is an Ethereum calculator that will help you to check out your profits when mining :-> Coinwarz.
Top 3 Ways to Mine Ethereum?
Ethereum Mining isn’t complex like Bitcoin Mining you just need GPU for this.
In a Nutshell, Ethereum works on a decentralized system that means no one is controlling the system. The system is maintained by users only, every Ethereum transaction you do there will be a block created, someone else will do after you again a block creates, this will make the chain of blocks known as the blockchain.
Now, as no one is controlling the system so who will approve transactions, the transaction is approved by computers working on the system, it’s automated. Miners are those people who will approve your transaction and in return, they will get rewards.
So now you can do three types of mining.
- Pool Mining
- Mining Alone
- Cloud Mining Services
Mining Alone and Cloud Mining Services aren’t recommended, as they’re hard and complex but if you want to learn them, check out these posts: Mining Alone; Cloud Mining Services.
In this article, you’ll learn how to mine Ethereum in 2021 by Pool Mining.
Learn How to Mine Ethereum on PC in 2023: Pool Mining
You can mine Ethereum with your computer only, you just need an operating system, which will you to run a motherboard, memory, and a GPU. Just like your PC, right? a little difference is your GPU will need a lot of power to run, and thus, it can heat up. So, you’ve to ensure there is proper air circulation.
This small set-up of yours can solve 27 Million math equations/sec. Seems, great right? but in Ethereum’s network there are 600 Trillion math equations/sec!
That’s why miners join pool mining.
In pool mining, miners across the globe use their resources to increase their hashing power together. That’s why mining alone isn’t profitable. Now the only you want is your ‘Crypto Wallet‘.
The crypto wallet is your virtual wallet, you can store your cryptocurrency there. Or many people save it hard disk for offline requirements. Now, you just need to connect your wallet with the network to get Ethereums.

Is Mining Profitable in 2023?
2,355.63 USD is equal to only 1 Ethereum, and according to express.co.uk, this value will actually increase. Estimates are in 2030, its value will be around 5,000 USD. But that’s the price the will miner get? Yes, but also he will get some rewards.
If a Miner successfully mines Ethereum, he will get 3 Ether as a reward in regards to this, 1 Ethereum will take approximately 63.7 Days. Plus, mining Ethereum is becoming than ever. Also, there aren’t any clear laws in many countries about the future of cryptocurrency.
But, in a nutshell, you can get 9,565.94 USD as a passive income which I think is good.
Conclusion
Ethereum and almost all cryptocurrency’s future are still controversial, they get too much-hyped. Instead, there will be sure shot development in the technology these cryptocurrencies are running, which is ‘Block-chain’.
There are huge environmental impacts of mining, that’s another reason, masses will disapprove this. But things are changing and maybe in near future, you’ll use Ethereum, for your grocery.
Although mining can be profitable passive income if you do it for the long term if things go well the estimated figure is great money to have…
