So I made the mistake of looking at some cryptocurrency pages and groups and seeing pictures of these guys and post about these people going and buying 20-100+ GPUs at a time... cleaning out entire towns at a time, having hundreds on back order... and the whole time talking complete crap about gamers and their concerns... I swear I want to start throat punching people... I don't think people see all the problems this could create for the other hardware manufacturers for gaming PCs because if people stop building then companies will stop producing...

 

[Austin Heusinkveld]

The hardware manufacturers are laughing all the way to the bank

 

[Carlos Contreras]

So much for microcenter trying to curb miners.

 

[Evan Chisam]

yea and when people stop buying motherboards, and coolers, and power supplies, and everything else associated with building a custom rig then we are all screwed and will be forced to just go to consoles

 

[Ahmad Magdy]

dont worry , eventually cryptocurrencies prices will fall to the point they will have spended more than they actually gained from cryptomining

 

[Ville-Waltteri Herrala]

No reason to get salty about the amount of demand jacking up prices. That's economics 101 for you. Work harder and save your money or alternatively wait for demand to try up and/or supply to catch up. No need to get overly bitter...

Pretty sure this picture was taken at a store and the poster in the other group was trolling. It does happen I just remember seeing the post

 

[Jonny Smith]

same picture has been used multiple times

 

[Ty Barnhill]

It’s not like this group is filled with people who only chat shit about crypto-miners...

 

[Jonny Smith]

along with another that has zotac boxes in a garage

 

[Evan Chisam]

the picture was just to get attention to the post

" if people stop building then companies will stop producing"

No, no they wont....people are buying, they will keep selling...Dont you know how commercialisation works?

 

[Anthony Millan]

[Andrew Cobb]

Buy on hardware release stop being cheap and waiting for prices to drop , they won’t anymore , didn’t know how good you had it until it’s too late

 

[Fabio van Remoortere]

You cant be kidding me right?? Dear miners go Fuck yourself Oww yeah don't forget to marry you're Gpu's bastards

 

[Dalton Williams]

Lmao I wish I had $100k to spend on “mining”

 

[Zilla Thegod]

this is fucked up and its also fucked up that Microcenter will let one person wipe their stock like this too

 

[Devon Smelker]

I love the cucks defending miners

 

[Rich Perez]

Will they spend more money than they can make mining?
