The REAL Reality of GPU Mining in 2025

Recorded on February 3, 2025, this episode of The Everyday Miner takes a hard look at the current state of GPU mining and why it’s no longer the profitable venture it once was. We explore how the decline began after Ethereum moved away from proof-of-work and how, in 2024 and 2025, GPU mining has become a speculative gamble on low-value coins with uncertain futures.

We discuss the risks of investing in GPU mining today, why the upfront costs often outweigh the rewards, and how miners are now betting on micro-cap coins in hopes of future gains. But it’s not all bad news—we also explore smarter alternatives, like repurposing mining hardware for AI computing as a service, which may offer a more sustainable and profitable path forward.

If you're wondering whether GPU mining is still worth it or looking for new ways to use your hardware, this episode is a must-listen.
