Recently, a Reddit user stumbled across two deserted cryptocurrency mining rigs in their basement. These rigs were outfitted with 12 ZOTAC-branded NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 graphics cards. Judging by the current prices in the second-hand market, these graphics cards are collectively worth around $3,600 (approximately RMB 24,000). According to the user's account, these two mining rigs were relics from the heyday of the mining frenzy. Once they ceased to be profitable ventures, the former homeowner simply left them languishing in the basement for years, neglecting any maintenance. In the end, the user was able to claim them at no cost.
