Interesting discussion whether GPUs are used or not. i don't know the answer and obviously many others don't.

So instead of being dependent on central banks, crypto is dependent on inside knowledge held by plain criminals or at least very shady businessmen. That much about the openness and transparency in real life.

The discussion is not interesting. It is well-known GPUs are not used for mining BTC. Mining other cryptocurrency? Sure. BTC? No.
