In the second most valuable crypto market, ETH fees are on the rise, as revealed by data from Glassnode. This means that ETH miners are cashing in big-time since over 42% of the miner revenue is currently derived from fees.

#Ethereum fees continue to skyrocket: over 42% of the miner revenue is currently derived from fees (hourly chart, 24h MA).

In addition, information obtained from BitInfoCharts revealed that the median Ethereum transaction fees generated are almost at their second-highest level ever. A mid-2018 surge saw ETH transaction fees peak at around $0.912. Yesterday, it hit the $0.879 mark.

Popular crypto trader, Joel Kruger, expressed his shock at the staggering fees that many are suddenly being asked to pay on the Ethereum network.

Is mining Ethereum still worth it?

When it comes to most crypto assets, mining difficulty and costs related to it are only going upwards. However, as ETH mining becomes more difficult based on more miners joining the process, it is expected that cost will move upward, as more computing power, software, and electricity are needed. But ETH’s value in recent months has gained exponentially and will most likely continue to do so, thus making mining potentially profitable in the long term.

Quick fact: Ethereum is a cryptocurrency designed for decentralized applications and deployment of smart contracts, which are created and operated without fraud, interruption, control or interference from a third party.

Like with many other crypto assets, speculating with Ethereum can be highly profitable and has had a good history of giving its investors huge returns. However, there are also many other options to make income from Ethereum. These options include Ethereum mining, Ethereum faucets, and Ethereum staking.
