he is spending 30K on a monitored mining rig with 8 3090s then intends to build more. The only way to buy bulk 3090s appears to be by buying complete towers

What happens if everyone jumps on the bandwagon and 90% of the country (or world) own £100 million in bitcoin . . does it suddenly become worthless?

Bitcoin in itself is pretty much all owned and only really traded in. Not a lot being mined now and as far as I am aware very little left in the pool

Ethereum is the coin of choice at the mo but that only has about a year in its current form from what I am told
