I’m not the person you’re asking either lol but I was curious so I poked around till I could find something. This says that the last time GPU mining for Bitcoin was 2014.
Bitcoin has been mined on ASICs since 2013. GPUs are outclassed when it comes to specialized hardware. The Reddit classic of downvoting a completely correct comment has carried over to Lemmy I see.
I am over on kbin.social and upvotes and downvotes don’t carry over instances, but on my end there are no downvotes at all in this whole thread. I am just stoned and thought that was interesting.
Where did I say it was an attack? Now you’re projecting. I just find it frustrating when someone is being downvoted for something that is verifiably true. It wasn’t directed at you specifically.
I’m sorry I commented on what I knew about, but I have no control over what the original poster said regarding GPUs, I don’t know what he meant by that either.
Source on the 10 year part?

This isn’t an area I know like literally fucking anything about. So this was just me googling. I don’t know how reliable this source is
Excellent source, thank you.
Edit: I’m being downvoted because I asked a guy for a source, he provided one, and I thanked him?
I’m so fucking done with you dipshits.
Here, have an upvote.

How do you access kbin.social?
On Memmy for iOS, downvotes were displayed by default. On Voyager for iOS, I had to enable downvotes in settings.
Are you me?
I didn’t downvote anything. I asked for a source.
But the Reddit classic of people taking everything as a person attack has carried over to Lemmy, I see.

Oh.
Lmao, you don’t have to comment if you don’t know what you’re talking about
