Would mining on a purchased rig be better over renting one which would at least allow for an owner to switch mining to other crypto in the event ETH 2.0 is a complete failure in terms of making money for him?

What do you think, about rent asic and mining-rigs on https://miningrigrentals.com/
Is there any sense to do mining Ethereum with the current mining-difficulty?
What about ROI of the mining,
and when the consensus will be switched on Proof-Of-Stake, on which block?

If you are looking to sell immediately after mining then no renting rigs will be an expensive affair but if you are willing to wait in a hope that price will go up during the ETH 2.0 FOMO then it could be profitable IMO but the problem is there's no date for launch yet.

Totally agree with @bkbirge here it's better to buy off ETH at the market instead of buying new hardware for mining because once FOMO about ETH2.0 hits mining difficulty will go through the roof.

Point taken, after all when electricity costs alone would be a major concern to factor in when calculating any return of investment. For the experience sake though for those that want get a foot hold just to understand how mining rigs work it is an option however unlikely because as you said it makes more sense to buy instead of mining in most cases.

One thing that many people with rigs have to concede is the fact you have to be on alert almost all day long just in case something goes wrong and a reboot or something else is required. People probably do prefer to do something else with their time.

Yeah, I did that for a few years. It was worth it for the education alone though I was able to stack a reasonable stash from it. However, it was a time sink and running the numbers it made more sense to cash out and reinvest directly in coin. There's fiat cost as well as opportunity cost to consider. If it's something you enjoy as a hobby then sure go for it, but personally I've got other things I'd rather do with my time at this point. If the ROI for mining was significantly better than just buying directly that would be a different story.

That might be true but for an enthusiast to own a rig and change mining options switching from one crypto to another as and when feels appropriate to maximise income - it is not a bad idea too.

If you've got enough money to be able to invest in a mining rig you'll be better off just buying directly BTC and/or ETH.

LOL I guess this tweet combining with the bitcoin's price dip last night was the main reason why we saw a huge drop in the ETHs price.

Uncertainty allows a state of confusion to ensure... does anybody really have any idea about what is going on?

Anything related to Ethereum press releases needs clarity and if that focal point happens to be from the Twitter account belong to Buterin then so be it but clarity is something ETH holders and potential investors deserve.


Looks like some of the ETH developers has confirmed the release of ETH 2.0 by this year, we maybe have a preview until JUL this year making the ETH scenario becoming bullish

That question is same as which one is better between Bitcoin and Ethereum. Now, we have three options to move bitcoin, with OMNI layer on bitcoin network, with ERC20 on Ethereum network, and with TRC20 on TRON network. So they need each other and have some likely mutual relationships. Bitcoin is the king and better than Ethereum, that in turn is better than TRON.  Grin

Got some pretty good gains with Ethereum today, thanks to bitcoin. Some good news I say.
Ethereum Network Use Hits a New All-Time High
A few weeks ago, there are limited people believed that Ethereum can take off but now it has actually taken off. The take-off is not too impressive but it is a good claim that Ethereum has not been dead. Time to think positive about Ethereum, and stop thinking, worrying too much about drama around Ethereum 2.0.
Many people think too much about Ethereum 2.0 with their takeoff that they believe that there will be changes in terms of the price they want it to, but I think it's not easy because there is no clear certainty about this whether there has been official news?

We can only see updates here on what the developers are doing so don't think too much in the near future.
It's better for you to see the chart rather than try to argue about that as vitaliks has already made its own statement regarding when exact date for ethereum 2.0 to come.

People have already started to put their money back into ethereum and the valitadors are growing so fast.

They are dissapointed because they expect to see Ethereum taking off to about $1000 or half of it. They usually expect too much and missed great opportunities to take profits or cut losses from time to time. If they do it wisely, they have several rounds to take profits or cut -losses and at the end, they will turn losses to profits. It takes time and determination with their decisions.

Currently, ETH is fluctuated around $230 and if they set up their price target at $280 ($50 for each round), with ten rounds like that, what they get will be more than waiting to see ETH hits $730 that will almost not be reached in 2020.
