I think there’s a strong chance we hit the BTC price high for this cycle already. HOWEVER, I don’t believe we’re going to see a massive crash in the bear market either. The historical volatility will get front-run on both ends.

Nvidia’s 5000 series cards selling out in an instant and the 4090s still being sold for $4k are what happens when there isn’t meaningful competition. It would be really nice for AMD to get it together soon.
Space Engineers 2 seems to run pretty well on low settings on my low-end Arch Linux system with a GTX 1080. There isn’t much to do in the pre-alpha release yet, but it’s a good sign for Proton and Linux gaming!
