Crash my ass. I'm making close to 50 dollars every day in this crashed market hehe.

 

This makes console gaming that much cheaper lol, poor pc elitists.

I can't wait to see the bubble pop, and all those who invested into the mining process losing it all.

Good thing I bought my 1080ti when I did, as well as still having my GTX 980/680 cards too.

The bubble popped recently but it's stabilising again. It will grow gradually again though. This ain't going away anytime soon

It's also not going to be around forever either though. 



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.

That's what they've been saying since 2011 and the whole thing is just getting bigger and bigger. Universities now give studies on it and banks are working on integrating the network.

Yeah, and so far, it's not completely obliterated the entire sector either.

In a comparison chart, the site shows that cards such as the GeForce GTX 1080 Ti - Nvidia's flagship among its range of gaming GPUs - is currently being sold online for $1,350 - more than twice the MSRP of $700.

Is basic math not being taught in schools anymore?

No time for that when you can make fancy graphs in Excel instead!

I am happy to be focusing on my PS3/4/Vita for now, certainly not a good time to get a new GPU.

Who is in the crypto market since its inception is already used to how volatile valuations are, prices can go up or down fast and in a huge gap. Nothing new.
