What needs to happen to the price of Bitcoin for GPUs to become available to gamers again?
- dragontamer 9y agoBitcoin is mined by ASICs. Etherium is mined by GPUs at the moment. So its Etherium that needs to crash for GPUs to become available on Ebay. Etherium has been crashing too, but it seems to be a little bit more stable than BTC actually. So keep your eye on Etherium prices instead. Maybe Monero (supposed to be a CPU-coin, but some GPUs mine Monero just fine). Those are better representative of the GPU-mining market.
- darkstar999 9y agoWell they rise and fall together, so I don't see a difference at this point.
- dragontamer 9y agoETH has risen from 0.05BTC to 0.10 BTC in the past two months. Sure, the whole cryptocoin market is crashing, but ETH has crashed less than BTC has.
