Is there still crypto mining stuff going on with GPUs?

It's partially AI, but in all likelihood customers aren't buying with AI as a high priority; instead, supply is constrained because most of the same production capacity is being used on AI-focused enterprise hardware.

Not as far as I know most of the popular coins either use asic mining or proof of stake. Maybe they use them for memecoin or something idk.
