Comment on Bitcoin inches closer to replacing the USD

I am just hoping Ethereum and whatever other shitcoin that uses GPUs is not going to rise. I have been waiting 18 months now, and not going to pay scalper prices. Its still a 100-150$ more than MSRP. Just hope it lowers enough before all the war/inflation shit catches up to it

Hard to buy anything with a processor.

Surprisingly high end CPUs from AMD are much cheaper than MSRP. I am getting one with inbuilt GPU as a fall.
Discrete GPUs are priced about 50% higher (used to be 100% higher last year). Everyone assumes its because of mining, probably Ethereum

I bought a and GPU last year at msrp. Just have to wait on Thursday to click buy every week until lucky.

I fucking missed a GPU that was being sold second hand at a reasonable price below MSRP last week because I started talking to the seller about shipping. Still kicking myself about it. I think likely I will have to wait another year, because the prices will again go up due to the war/inflation
Thankfully Bitcoin doesn't use GPUs anymore, so its price increase won't affect it
