I think the Ethereum mining is still profitable. But the it becomes less profitable due to the drop of price.
difficulty is sky high, you will get less coin than before and ultimately not that much profitable, yet most profitable now yeah the mining profit has dropped like crazy in the last 3 weeks, dificulty should readjust soon with the price fall. Dont think so. Will keep rising since its still very profitable The difficulty will rise again until the high electricity cost miners drop out of the business. So it will double. If the price keeps on dropping and the price is also not recovering, for most miners, it will not be profitable. It is still profitable for some people, so the hash rate is increasing the difficulty is still rising very fast. If the hash rate double again next month, the mining will not be profitable for most people in Europe. we can hope for the price increase for bitcoin, this will make or alt profitable again, without the need of waiting for the alt itself to increase in value

For the Ethereum, if the price is the same in dollar terms, and the difficulty rises, it will be less profitable.

For the Ethereum, if the price is the same in dollar terms, and the difficulty rises, it will be less profitable. if bitcoin price is 800, it mean that ethereum also it's double in value against fiat, so 1 ethereum is still 0.02 in bitcoin, but those 0.02 will be worth 2x what they are worth now

i am not paying eletricity where i live so yes , for me mining ETH is still profitable , i am using a R9 - 280x(Gigabyte), sometimes she makes some noise but mostly of times she goes just fine because the tree coolers, i have with her now 24 mh/s (oveclocked) i think maybe i can receive like $2,70 ~ $3,00 per day

For the current profitability of the Ethereum mining, it is OK to mine with existing GPU, but do not buy new ones.

Buy only cheap powerful used cards only with mining profits you already have.

Buy only cheap powerful used cards only with mining profits you already have. The cheap power used cards are usually not efficient than the new cards. For example, the 280x is not as efficient as the R9 nano.

Never invest more than you can afford to loose.

Mining Ether is starting to get crappy, with the high difficulty and drop in price. I'm on ethermine and I could login and see my balance ticking up quite nicely but now it nearly moves, I know I can't be earning what they estimate. I might point my hardware over to nano and if I still don't like it I'll point to another alt that's more volatile. Another alt will rise up one day but for now its slim profits all around.

It's ALWAYS time to be efficient - maybe the upfront cost is too high if you only consider mining Eth, but honestly, if you go longer term on mining efficiently, you don't lose. With current earning levels I am starting to save power somewhere in 0.5€/kWh area. If I had nano + Wolf0 bin + Wolf0 bios...

Even 8 months ago we could hardly earn $2 with a decent gpu, eth makes it possible.

If your electricity price is over $0.2, you will not be profitable when the difficulty double from current level.

It will ROI.

There are many people building rigs for mining Ethereum, so the difficulty will be higher. It will be less profitable.
