In November, when Sony released the PS5, the console immediately became the most wanted consumer product throughout the world. Three months later, thousands of people are still on the lookout to secure the console due to stock shortage, low production, and scalping. With the PS5 being adapted for mining recently, the problem of scalping will only increase.

According to the website, Gadget Tendency (via ResetEra), enthusiasts from China were successfully able to mine cryptocurrency using the PS5. Although the console isn’t suitable for mining, they have found a workaround for it.

Following this discovery, many crypto enthusiasts might start buying PS5s and put them to crypto mining. This could mean a further shortage of consoles and common people might face an even harder time trying to secure the PS5.

PS5s are already unavailable across all retailers with drops lasting less than 5-10 minutes. And drop timings are mostly unknown unless you’re following tracker accounts on Twitter. If crypto miners start using PS5s, the console might not be readily available until 2022.

A photo was shared on the Chinese social media platform Weibo showing the successful mining of Ethereum (a type of cryptocurrency). The mining performance of the console reached 98.76 MH/s (MH/s = million hashes per second). The power consumption was 211 W.

Here, take a look –

Compared to that, an RTX 3090 delivers up to 122 MH/s. While an RTX 3080 performs at 86.16 MH/s.

Gadget Tendency says the console was hacked and most probably overclocked since it exceeded its native performance of 50 MH/s.

Not just the PS5, but the person was able to mine Etherum with an M1 chip MacBook Air as well.

ps5 faceplate after 3 months. what is all these marking?

Guys, I have some questions... noob ones as I'm fresh to this...

For digital version, I understand all games need to be downloaded and stored in the SSD.
But do we need to stay online to play games?

For disc version, do we need to save the games to the SSD as well???
Or we directly play with the disc inside the console?

Thanks...

So both version will occupy same amount of space in the SSD?

A question for fellow forumers. I'm having issue outputting PS5 through my AV receiver. When I turn on the PS5, I am able to hear to console interface sound but display signal is not detected. My solution now is plugging the PS5 straight into the TV HDMI and the ARC somehow relays the audio to the AVR. Just wondering why the PS5 doesn't work with the AVR.  I'm using Denon AVR-X250BT with Sony X7000F TV. I never had this problem with the PS4 PRO

Interesting Rumor going around: Kojima Productions in talks with Phil Spencer to develop game exclusive to Gamepass / Xbox.

Kojima not developing for Playstation since MGS1 sounds like end of an era.
