That's not new. Replace hyperscalers with crypto miners and we've had a similar situation for a while.

Crypto miners no longer buy up large quantities of GPUs. That market died off when ETH switched from PoW to PoS.

That's news to crypto miners.

I no longer have the 150,000 GPUs I was mining with.

The only ones left standing are the small ones and most of them are just using what they already purchased.

There is no liquidity in the shitcoins to be able to support daily large dumps of their tokens and unless you have almost free power, there is zero profitability.

You need to start a blog latchkey, I see you on here in all sorts of different contexts and it’s always interesting to see what you’re up to these days!
Thanks luke! Super appreciate it. Company website was the first priority, but I've also started on a blog component for it as well. Using bullet.so/notion.so and really enjoying how easy it is to build everything.
