Their main growth drivers are data centers, when demand will dry within 2 years, a bubble will pop. Especially when theoretical architecture of Neural Network change, the need for high performance will decrease.
Well, there are a period after the last Bitcoin bubble burst when the best way to get a good Graphics card for cheap was buying a used one from on the Bitcoin miner operations that were closing down.
Nvidia and other chipmakers produce actual, useful products. They’ll be sitting pretty after the bubble pops.

This is a “grab the pile of cash and be happy” situation.
Then we’ll all get cheaper GPUs! Oh no!

No not really, the GPUs that datacenters are buying doesn’t even have a display output so they are useless to the vast majority of home users.
If you run a home lab then maybe.
