AMD and nVidia have alread begun to develop graphic cards for crypto mining, missing the monitor connector and recently even with increased durability for non-stop mining. The next step might be the MPU - the mining processor unit. Or maybe more generalized something that also benefits AI even more than current GPU's. What are your thoughts on that?

Looks like AMD and Nvidia are best place to push tech into the next phase, Ive read that both AMD and Nvidia are looking to release bare bones GPUs specifically designed for the task of cryptocurrency mining, these stripped down GPUs will have lower specs than their gaming counterparts, yet be ASIC engineered to meet the demands of currency mining.
I am not sure if that is a good thing. This whole mining business creates a lot of demand for energy and rare metals. On the other hand we are blowing ressources for worse so here at least we are pushing decentralizing business and great blogging platforms that pay us.
