Silicon Shortage? LOL ya right!?

[Hellimod]

Why do you people believe this crap every single time. And you promote this new china hustle. "Muddy waters makes it easy to catch fish" - China Hustle supposed proverb. You know they are lying so they can divert the entire China silicon production into making Asic processors for bitcoin mining. We eat up these excuses every single year and at the same time we hand them more money.

Yes, because ASIC miners are more profitable that the entire automobile industry which is also suffering from the silicon shortage.

"Further complicating things, Barnett said automakers and their suppliers aren’t just competing for standard integrated circuits, but also the fab capacity required to produce ASICs and other custom silicon"

Bring up any article, take your pick. Auto makers are unable to get asic processors.

ASIC miners aren't even profitable anymore over a normal gpu, lmfao. 
and correct me if I'm wrong, but TSMC and other manufacturers don't get their silicon from the same supply, and TSMC doesn't make ASIC mining chips.

You’ve any actual sources here, or are you just slinging unfounded speculation?

Do you have a point for making this post? If so, do you have any sources proving your point?

What the fuck are you smoking? I wonder if it'd help in my autistic schizophrenic fits.

[Jayraven]

Any evidence backing that claim?
