1. Mining being profitable with GPUs that were up until that point reasonably priced.
2. The bcash fork which everybody wanted in on because it was supposedly going to replace Bitcoin.

Today people have wised up on scamcoin forks, ICOs and similar and that a new and upcoming mineable coin is in the works seems highly unlikely.
The established brands are here to stay and newcomers will be squashed.
The next bullrun wont be anything like the previous.

Its clear that you have no idea what you are talking about and i suggest you shut your stupid mouth before you make an even bigger fool out of yourself.

At the height of the bullrun you could make over $10 paid in bitcoin mining ethereum on the nicehash network using a single vega64 gpu you utter mongoloid.

If miners make insane amount of money from extracting coal then more want to get in on it, especially if it is easily accessible.

You couldn't even get GPUS on the secondary market except at a huge markup during the bullrun. That should give you an indication.

meh... you still don't get it. shitcoins don't matter. they never did. it's an illusion. their market cap is also an illusion. eventually all will bend the knee.
