Its been a great week so far for Samsung. Today - for the first time in over 15yrs - Samsung has overtaken INTEL as the world's largest chip maker - netting a cool $69.1B in the process.
In addition to that, Samsung just announced that they will continue to make it's ASIC chip specifically designed for cryptocurrency mining with intentions of generating an extra $300-$500M in revenue from that venture every year.
For all the talk about cryptocurrency demise it's refreshing to see large companies investing in the infrastructure to promote a healthy and sustainable ecosystem.
I'd like to see more investments done in the energy consumption aspect of crypto mining. AI and deep machine learning would be great tools for such an endeavor. I'll keep y'all posted if I come across articles that address that.
Thanks for stopping by!
