In addition, it looks like 9.25 million 1000 series cards (1060, 1080, etc.) sold in the first quarter in which they were released, which we can extrapolate out to about 30-40 million in the first year.
It would be interesting to see what percentage of manufacturing capacity NVIDIA is at, as 25%-50% would put ETH GPU mining at the majority of sales. Especially considering that supposedly higher volume cards such as the 3060 do a quarter of the hashrate of a 3080, which would be about 24 million cards. Of course, AMD is also part of the conversation as well, but I believe that they are quite a bit less volume than NVIDIA. Then of course, not all GPU miners are mining ETH necessarily and so on.
