Prior to the Merge, Ethereum operated on a Proof of Work (PoW) consensus mechanism, allowing miners to earn rewards by solving complex mathematical problems.

However, with the Merge, Ethereum switched to a Proof of Stake (PoS) mechanism. This change eliminated the possibility of mining ETH through traditional means.

Despite this shift, individuals can still participate in the Ethereum network and earn profits. One way to do this is through staking, where users lock up their ETH to validate transactions and secure the network.
