Merge will strand enormous GPU capacity
Akash Weekly Spaces - June 29th (Akash Network)
“As we all know, post-Merge, when it moves from proof of work to proof of stake, there’s going to be an enormous amount of GPU capacity that will be unutilized… the fact that we will be able to leverage GPUs on Akash very soon, it’s a great way for ETH miners to earn additional income on their existing capital.” — 00:05:02
Context: Discussing a press piece on Akash as an option for ETH miners after the proof-of-stake transition (which happened September 2022); GPU support on Akash was still pre-launch (“can’t wait to show you a demo very soon”).
