As of 2025, you can no longer mine Ethereum in the traditional sense. Ethereum transitioned from Proof of Work (PoW) to Proof of Stake (PoS) during the 2022 upgrade known as “The Merge,” which permanently phased out GPU-based mining. Instead of mining, users now earn ETH by staking—locking up their coins to help secure the network and validate transactions. To become a validator, you need to stake 32 ETH, but for most users, pooled or liquid staking platforms like Lido or centralized exchanges offer more accessible options.
