What you need to know before you buy T-Rex for Ether mining

The Ethereum 2.0 upgrade is intended to increase transaction speed and reduce the network’s energy consumption, unlocking benefits for investors and Ethereum app consumers. But for miners, it won’t be business as usual.

Whereas Ethereum has been one of the most lucrative cryptocurrencies to mine, Ether mining may become obsolete in a not-so-distant future. The Ethereum blockchain is shifting over to a PoS (proof-of-stake) model from its current PoW (proof-of-work) model, making ETH mining unnecessary.

Many Ether miners are trying to plan for the future by mining other cryptocurrencies. The great advantage for those using T-Rex software is that they can easily shift from mining ETH to mining Ravencoin, for instance, without purchasing a new system.
