Merlin,
Ethereum is a 'cripto-currency' like Bitcoin e.g. it's a
computer algorithm
based on blockchain. That opens the question of what currency is be it
sea-shells, cattle, gold or pretty pieces of paper like we use...
If you do it as a hobby keep it as such. Some Chinese adventurers &
others have set up racks of powerful computers to mine crypto-currency
so you would always loose in competition with them.
Run some quick searches on Firefox to learn more.
Blessings,
Paul W.
