I'm not referring to normal users that are trying to generate ROI. When your actual cost is $0, even GPU mining Monero or shit coins is cash flow positive and relative low risk.

A "few dollars a day" is good money for people in some parts of the world.

I didn’t discount what you said at all. I just clarified that mining is less of a concern these days. It isn’t even a few dollars a day at this point, it is pennies.

Easy to mitigate with credit card signup and individual approval.

Go try to get an account with CoreWeave and you’ll see what I mean.
