We sort of got rid of them actually, Bitcoin lost almost 50% of its value and pretty much every other cryptocurrency, China banned it and Tesla stopped accepting it as a payment method

I hear that many people have to wait till late 2022 to get there new GPU, meaning they already orderd and they are in the waiting game. Not just chips that they are short on. As soon as they make and send they get brought out so fast by ryptocurrencies and scalping and it's so unfar. Worse they allow it.

As long as lawmakers don't crack down on cryptocurrencies and scalping.

i don't think that all countries share the same opinion about cryptocurrencies, some implemented ATM's for that, some used it as an official payment method, and some banned it

Well, some countries are backwards savages. there are still theocracies and communist dictatures and countries where women have no rights. So I don't expect everyone to be on board, but if the biggest first world economic powers acted against it, it would be pushed into insignificance.

How long do you think the microchip shortage will go on (and the subsequent shortage of consoles)?

It's definitely going to depend on the companies that are making those chips and with pandemic hindering a lot of things, we definitely won't know.
