Yeah the Star Wars edition Titan Xp are in stock at $1138.

Craziness.

That is just insane. I paid $325 for my 1070 1.5 years ago.OMFG, I just saw an MSI Armor GTX 1070 sell for $1125 on ebay. Not asking $1125, I mean actually selling the thing for that price. Used GTX 1070 selling for new Titan Xp prices.

The coin bubble will pop eventually. Long Island Blockchain and Kodak's photo-rights-blockchain announcement shows pretty clearly that valuations are a crazy speculation bubble that is not sustainable,
The people throwing money at coins and blockchain don't seem to realize it's like throwing money at someone for writing a new text editor or hello world app. Anyone can do it, there is no barrier to entry, there are no patents or other protected IP, and nation states and megacorporations can introduce new coins and ledgers at will without paying a penny to the existing groups.
Hehehe. At least you get paper. What's crypto got to offer?Tell that to people investing in the stock market where you are literally buying claim to slips of meaningless paper.
Unless you get 50% stake in those slips of meaningless paper it's 100% worthless in reality.

So just like altcoins, someone can legally make a functionally equivalent clone of Apple or Microsoft or Netflix or Walmart that performs identically by spending a few hundred dollars? Good to know!
(That was sarcasm. You can't.)
You forgot that little detail where having the slip of paper entitles you to a percentage of the dividends, voting rights, right to resell....Tell that to people investing in the stock market where you are literally buying claim to slips of meaningless paper.

Maybe in closely held companies in states with no statutory rights for minority share holders. Plenty of jurisdictions have passed specific statutory remedies for minority shareholders in privately held companies. In my state... https://jux.law/employment-issues-related-to-minority-shareholder-rights/. And you certainly don't need 50% or more for a publicly traded company....Not sure if you understand.
Stock has zero 0 0% inherent worth until you have 50% of the total amount (typically, companies can be structured to where controlling stake is determined differently)
What i'm saying is that by your logic literally 49% of all stock held by people is 100% inherently worthless.
I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume that you do not have a 50% controlling stake in any of the companies you just mentioned.
Factually incorrect. Several states have oppression doctrine, buyout rights, wrongful termination. Fiduciary duty of loyalty and care. The list continues100% up to the whims of the company in question, and the people/person/entity that owns the controlling stake..

Part of the whole appeal of Crytpo is that its almost 100% fully unregulated, unlike regular equity markets.
I see, this is just plain trolling. Go away.Ireland is a wholely owned subsidiary of companies like Apple, the law is whatever Apple tells them to make it.
Multi-billion dollar companies aren't dumb enough to incorporate in states they don't own.

Xbox one x looking more and more promising. It's going to soon be the best deal.... Lol...Yep was checking Ebay too, and they seem to be in the 1k range now, crazy. I feel like $700 for mine was a steal now.
That is just insane. I paid $325 for my 1070 1.5 years ago.
Not the end, but I believe many people who just want to game, will do so on a console.
Otherwise, until mining profits drop, or some other major event like Bitcoin being shut down in China, this is how it's going to be until then.
When mining took a dip in October/November, many miners here put their cards and rigs up for sale, and people could find in stock graphic cards near MSRP. So the demand rises and falls quickly based on how well mining is going.
That said, Nvidia and AMD will have to increase production somehow, because if every card that rolls out of a factory is immediately sold, it only makes sense for them to do so. At the same time, if they ramp up production and there is a mining dip where miners aren't buying them, they don't want the various retailers to have surplus stock where they have to offer some kind of discount/promotion.
I have to say that I've seen mining in the past make cards a little harder to find, and increase in price. I've never seen anything like this before. It's insanity when over-MSRP cards sell out in minutes.
