Miners are also mining other profitable coins such as Feathercoin, Vertcoin, Siacoin and Decred, anything profitable.
Miners are mainly mining the Ethereum as that one has the biggest market cap and there are more buying.

The Ethereum is quite profitable to mine. I heard that many bitcoin users are buying the Ethereum now, so the price is high.
When the Ethereum price is high, people will mine it to make some profits. Miners will chase the most profitable coin.

The difficulty of the Ethereum mining is rising very fast. It means there are many farms, They could be unprofitable after the price drop.
The difficulty now is similar to 4 days ago. It seems the hashing rate rise is having a pause at the moment.
You can see that every time the DAG-file changes (every 1-2 weeks). All rigs need to download the new file then (1.5 GB) and some Rigs won't update automatically. So they need to get a little kick (deleting old files, downloading new ones, restart the miner software). The pool hashrate loses almost 20% for hours and of course, the difficulty is adjusting then.
The 1.6 GB DAG file is not downloaded from the internet. It is generated locally and transferred to the GPU.

I see an eth coin price rally coming.
If you feel a rally is coming it's better just to buy coins. Looking pretty grim right now though. July 13, 2016, 12:54:26 PM
I heard the SIAcoin is most profitable to mine at the moment. But the Etheruem difficulty is still rising.

every new rig
psu = so all psu ,companies, seasonic ,corsair, rosewill, thermaltake, silverstone, evga
cpu = intel + amd,
gpu = nvidia + amd
hdd/ssd = drive builders Seagate western digital samsung sandisk
ram = ram builders micron samsung hynix
so all of the above make money if eth coin sticks around. and that list is incomplete.

do you think gpu mining has that much of an impact in the bigger custom build pc game?
what percentage of newly built rigs with new parts are for miners do you think? cards are always replaced of course but the rest of the rig?
myself, i just reused an old core 2 rig from my btc gpu days for 2 cards, plus stuck one card in my daily driver to take advantage of games and the fact its on 24/7 anyway. but of course im just a "hobby" miner in it for fun, not like you and others having, well, even more fun

The difficulty level is rising again. It is a new all time high. So the Ethereum mining community is very confident.

The price of Etheruem dropped a lot recently, the difficulty also rises fast. It might not be so profitable to mine in the future.
that is your opinion. But some miners do not agree. They are adding more hashing power to the network now.
The miners ordered the graphics cards and other components before the drop, they had to assemble the mine any way.
Ain't heard of returns?
It seems they did not return. So it seems that they are the believers of the Ethereum and think they can make profit by mining.
The network hashing is around 4250 GH/s at the moment. So the miners are still building new rigs.
those are chinese or someone else with 0.05 electricity, remember that those folks can keep mining until everything is dead basically
In theory I will mine 22 eth coins in the next month making about 220 usd my power at 18 cents summer rate will be 110
thus a 110 profit. eth coin will get a new price pump from both nvidia and from amd as both companies can buy eth coins to pump price as a form of advertising .

It will only get worse since Antminers won't be profitable anymore and people will buy GPUs instead.

The difficulty is rising and the price is dropping. So maybe in two months time, it will be not profitable to mine.
