A crypto mining farm has seen an untimely end thanks to a fire in a town in northern Thailand. A report claims that "72 servers" were destroyed, although images issued by local emergency services make it difficult to work out whether the burned-out bitcoin farm was utilizing much-wanted GPUs or ASIC miners.

You're kidding, right? 1. Bitcoin is mined using ASiCS only. 2. You can clearly see burned Asics in the photo. Hiw exactly is it gamers victory?

How is this a win? The cards are dead now, so NO ONE can use them for anything at all.

No one would buy a graphic card previously used for cryptomining.
