I wonder if my stock market portfolio has any real exposure to Bitcoin tanking.

  Have a look at NVDA and AMD -- crypto mining is most of the reason why they went up so much.

    This is provably (and factually) incorrect. Crypto mining has been a portion but in no way “most of” the reason NVDA and AMD have risen. Machine learning, AI, and self driving are completely reliant on the products provided by the aforementioned.

    I would think miners are purchasing ASICs now, not GPUs.

      There are coins that can't be mined on ASICs and they're only profitable to be mined on GPUs - Ethereum and zCash are 2 examples, but there are many more.
