Posted June 29, 2017 Thanks to Crytpo mining we live in a world of $500+ GTX 1070's, $400+ GTX 1060's, and more inflated video card prices. Dell must have received a shipment from PNY and VisionTek, because their video cards are at normal list prices. They probably won't last. Update: The RX 580 and 570 sold out.

It's not bitcoin because that's barely minable at this point. The real currencies we should be worried about are zcash and ethereum. Those are still easy to mine and highly dependent on GPUs because Asics aren't developed for their algorithms.

Though if Bitcoin were to crash it would pull all the others with it, if only temporarily.
