Like there won't be some other hype to immediately take it's place. Just like Bitcoin GPU prices never collapsed because it went right into AI hype.

Tbf Bitcoin didn't fuck with the GPU market, that was more etherium's doing

Bitcoin trashed the GPU market before moving on to Asics. Then other coins kept going on GPUs.

Hadn't bitcoin not been viable on GPUs for over a decade? Most of the cryptocurrency hype was mining other coins on GPUs, or using them to do blockchain calculations for NFTs and things.
