Running a node is about seeding the chain not mining, ofc.

Also a free market means people can do with the stuff they buy as they wish.

Whether I mine on it or stick it up my arse is just as valid as you gaming.

Doesn't change the fact I'm glad they excluded features that make it unfavourable to crypto people - for any reason - so that I can buy a pi for what it's intended for at a decent price instead of wondering if people are buying them to shove them up their arse.

Crypto extensions will never make the rpi even remotely cost competitive with even very old GPUs.

The main advantage will be general network ops.

Just because I don't want to shove a rasberry pi up my arse doesn't mean I'm closed minded.

I now understand why the Pi Zero comes standard without the GPIO header.

Well, that's no fun.
