DeepSeek Effect for Cryptocurrency

[TryNinja]

Sorry, I don't understand about the price of DeepSeek. Is the price you mean cheap like below?

DeepSeek Chat: $0.07 for 1 million token input with cache hit, $0.27 for 1 million token input with cache miss, and $1.10 for 1 million token output.
DeepSeek Reasoner: $0.14 for 1 million token input with cache hit, $0.55 for 1 million token input with cache miss, and $2.19 for 1 million token output.

You can compare the price between most LLMs here: https://llmpricecheck.com/

When DeepSeek launched, it cost half of what other models from OpenAI costed and it had pretty much the same quality on its answers and capabilities. I remember migrating entirely to deepseek before it exploded on the media and started being unusable due to the high suddenly traffic.

In this AI business, DeepSeek's price does look cheap and I've checked it just now. So, it's natural that everyone chooses DeepSeek.
As you said, the features of DeepSeek with other OpenAI are not much different, of course this point is also very important for choosing DeepSeek.

Oh how is that possible?
I thought DeepSeek would not experience traffic jams, but it turns out it's the same as other formal websites like Facebook servers that sometimes go down.

Well, because they have limited GPUs, specially because they are Chinese and the USA has put many limitations for them to adquire the necessary hardware (i.e NVIDIA cards). Running a full LLM is very very expensive, when you have thousands of people prompting their model, there isn't enough room for all of them and the service gets the famous "busy, try again" error.

That means AI technology also has its limitations and all technological systems in this world are not perfect, there must be shortcomings that are experienced.
I thought DeepSeek AI did not use a graphics card like NVIDIA, it turns out that almost all of these digital technology systems use computer hardware.
As far as I know, to get Bitcoin you also have to use hardware and the computer hardware makes it expensive for Bitcoin price fragments.

Hey everyone,

I was reading through this thread and really relate to the idea of sticking to a simple strategy. I recently came across a platform called Fruitifi that offers several pre-built crypto investment strategies, each with different risk levels. The idea is to choose one that fits your profile without having to analyze everything yourself.

I find the concept interesting, especially since there's also a section to learn the basics of DeFi. I’m still exploring it, so I was wondering — has anyone here tried something like this or have any thoughts on this kind of approach?

Would love to hear your feedback!

NVIDIA is not supportive of crypto currency mining as you think.

They edited their drivers to detect and throttle Ethereum mining, back in the day, because crypto miners will scalping all their GPUs at launch and cleaning out their stock.

Then they made an actual mining GPU but made it 3x more expensive.
