Cryptominers Target AMD Ryzen CPUs for Their Big L3 Caches
https://www.tomshardware.com/news/cryptominers-target-amd-ryzen-cpus-for-their-big-l3-caches
"AMD's Zen 3 mainstream processors, such as the Ryzen 9 5950X and Ryzen 9 5900X, feature up to 64MB of L3 cache. Based on information from the Raptoreum Mining Profitability Calculator, the Ryzen 9 5950X and Ryzen 9 5900X offer up to 4,247 h/s and 3,557 h/s, respectively. The first could net you 205 Raptoreum a day, while the latter delivers up to 172. At $0.0220255 per Raptoreum and utilizing an energy cost of $0.12/kWh, a Ryzen 9 5950X makes around $4.16 a day, while a Ryzen 9 5900X puts in a respectable $3.43. That means the Ryzen 9 5950X ($739) practically pays for itself in 178 days and the Ryzen 9 5900X ($524) in about 153 days. "

Gonna need some Super Copium next year as CPUs gonna dramatically get increased caches...

Funny how there's talks of laws meant to stifle the miners, yet nothing is being done and yet they only grow bolder and more aggressive with what they target to guy up.
Sure we hear about a coin tanking, but that only seems to happen briefly, and they only end up coming back stronger.
Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.
