You might want to adjust your force sensitivity. The merge doesn't simply GPU mining will stop, simply that the PoS chain is now merged with the PoW chain. You'll still be able to PoW mine with your GPU until they remove PoW fully, which is due to happen sometime around Q3 2022.
- bsamuels 4y agowhat you're referring to is an earlier way the merge was designed. there is no PoW mining anymore.
- capableweb 4y agoIf that's the case, I stand correctly. Seems my understanding of the merge was an outdated one then. Thanks for the correction.
- ChuckNorris89 4y agoWe are already very close to Q3 2022. Unless you meant another year.
- soco 4y agoIsn't September even Q4?
- wumms 4y agoQ1: January, February, March Q2: April, May, June Q3: July, August, September Q4: October, November, December Edit: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calendar_year https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calendar_year
- robjan 4y agoDepends on which country you are in. Many countries financial years run April to April.
- tsimionescu 4y agoMore precisely, it depends whether Q3 2022 meant calendar 2022 or financial 2022 (and if the second, which financial 2022). But for an international project, I suspect the right reading is Q3 of calendar 2022.
- kristofferR 4y agoIt depends on which type of Q, I think. Some companies, like Costco, are in their Q1 period right now.
- michaelsbradley 4y agoNo, PoW on Ethereum mainnet is forever done after The Merge. The chain is now fully PoS.
- everfree 4y agoTo be clear, it's not possible to PoW mine with your GPU anymore. That's what today's update changed.
