All indications are there will be a lot of repossessed GPUs appearing on the market before too long. Likely to be messy for a while but will open up a lot of possibilities when it’s easy to get your hands on some secondhand GPUs.

This sounds like weapons market after the crash of soviet republic. Never has been a better time to get a functioning tank or parts of nukes.
What are people going to do with all the GPUs? I guess we'll all have really good gaming rigs, lol.

Sincerely, perhaps there will be a new flood of crypto farms, which I suppose would drive the prices of crypto down. Other ideas for what changes are enabled by massive supply of cheap GPUs?
