Deci e oficial. Nvidia a vandut majoritatea cipurilor din generatia Ampere producatorilor de placi grafice special concepute pentru minat! Asta e cauza crizei si a preturilor exagerate, precum in urma cu 2 ani.
Nvidia Posts Record Q3 Earnings, Sales of GPUs to Crypto Miners Reach $175 Million "For the quarter in review, Nvidia sold at least $175 million worth of new generation GPUs to ethereum miners, helping the outperformance, according to a note from RBC Capital Markets analyst Mitch Steves. The analyst had guided sales to miners to come in at $150 million for the quarter.
Steves noted that the upcoming network upgrade of the Ethereum blockchain, also known as Ethereum 2.0, which is scheduled to take place sometime in December,
demands that miners switch over to more efficient mining hardware.
Nvidia’s new Ampere GPU chips are thought to meet that need."
Deci aproape tot ce se produce e rezervat minerilor.
E valabil si pentru AMD.
