Why the #-@-#&# do they allow blockchains??? I guess they probably figured out it's good for the bottom line and all, but it's pretty obnoxious to allow blockchains, which seems to have been the cause of the shortages, while banning everything else.
- latchkey 3y agoAfter ETH switched from PoW to PoS, it had the effect of decimating the entire GPU mining market. Very few GPUs are being used for crypto any more. If there are shortages, these days it is because of ML/AI/Gaming. In fact, there are shortages... did you know it is nearly impossible to get data center space of any size for any decent price? AI has eaten it all up. On top of it, AI doesn't care about the environment. There is so much money being dumped into it right now, that people are pulling power from wherever they can get it and at any cost. On the bright side, at least crypto tried to go the cheapest routes... which happened to be mostly green based power. So yea... be mad at AI now.
