Ethermine, a dominant Ethereum mining pool, is reportedly broadening its scope to include Ravencoin (RVN) starting April 2025. The move signals a strategic pivot as Ethereum’s proof-of-stake transition continues to reshape the mining ecosystem.
According to MiningWeekly’s insider sources, Ethermine’s team is testing Ravencoin integration to diversify its offerings. “With a 1% fee and proven reliability, they’re positioning to capture altcoin miners,” said analyst Tom Richards.
“Ethereum’s shift left a gap, and Ethermine is filling it,” Richards noted. “Ravencoin’s GPU-friendly algorithm fits their infrastructure perfectly.”
The pool’s expansion follows miner demand for profitable alternatives, with Ravencoin gaining traction due to its low energy demands and rising market price.
As of March 19, 2025, at 5:36 AM PDT, RVN trades at $0.045, up 4.2% in 24 hours but down 8% over the week. Ethermine’s hashrate remains steady, suggesting strong miner confidence in its pivot.
