CryptoCurrency Mining with GPUs *spawn*

I quit job & became crypto millionaire at 19 after investing £37 a year ago (thesun.co.uk)
A TEEN crypto whiz has revealed that he was able to quit two jobs and drop out of university after making a whopping £1 million from a £37 investment.

At the start of 2021, the then 19-year-old began to invest part of his earnings from work to cryptocurrency while also studying for a law degree.

Starting small, he began by investing less with £37, but was staggered when he saw the value skyrocket.

"Fifty dollars turned into $500 (£369) three days later," he told the BBC: "Two more days later, it was $5,000 (£3,690)."
...
He explained that it soon became apparent that he was dealing with “crazy money” and was quickly able to quit his jobs and drop out of university to focus on becoming a millionaire.

And making things even better, he now has an estimated net worth of almost £6 million.

How extensive and dangerous to Nvidia could this hack be? There seems to be an implication that a lot of low level data has been taken, including driver code, BIOS info, chip design information, enough to apparently expose a lot of design secrets.

Or they could be bluffing, it's really hard to tell. Probably only the hackers & nVidia know the truth and neither is gonna be talking.
 
They are just empty threats so far. Release something with meat on it and we will see if they are bullshitters or not. No sane competitor would use the information under these circumstances.

The hackers would provide proof of some of the data they have to Nvidia. You can't really bluff your way through extortion of such a large company.

What about someone like China? They don't exactly care much about trade secrets of western countries.

I would guess it isn't just straight forward and the full architecture or software have many pieces to the puzzle. Like a patent.
 
Anyone with Netflix should what their documentary titled "Trust No One, The Hunt for the Crypto King". It's about QuadrigaCX Bitcoin exchange, the CEO faking his death, the exchange withholding $250 million of people's money, and how Gerald Cotten (CEO) ran earlier scams as Sceptre/Murdock since age 14 or 15 and the other founder ran Identify Theft rings.
