Using this new system, there is no more need for miners, as the validation on the etherium network is done exclusively by users who are staking their Etherium.

Also, miners require specialized equipment, usually consisting of hardware devices like “ASICs miners” or, in the case of Ethereum, multiple high-end graphic cards connected in parallel. A significant up-front investment is therefore required to acquire the necessary hardware. Furthermore, since these devices consume a lot of power, mining is only beneficial if electricity prices are very cheap, or you can get some good deals on mining equipment.
