@Maverynthia bitcoin production is not CPU-intensive

@oreolek THat why video cards are sold out everywhere! Oh yes it's GPU intensive :P and video cards use like what.. 0 power? a 1080 nees a 1000 watt min so.. no.. wrong.

@Maverynthia The new software patches increase CPU load, the GPU load stays the same.

Coin mining doesn't use CPU because it's already ineffective.

Web servers are always CPU-intensive unless it's an AI web service.

A regular data center is optimized for web services (CPU intensive), not coin miners (GPU intensive), so the power pollution after Meltdown would be concentrated around data centers and not mining farms.
