Nvidia's Whitelist Beaten as 74 Servers Slip Past Crypto Mining Ban
Nvidia's whitelist was designed to prevent unauthorized use of its graphics processing units (GPUs) in cryptocurrency mining. However, it appears that some users have found a way to bypass this restriction.
According to a report from Digitimes, 74 B300 servers were shipped from Taiwan to China, despite being on Nvidia's whitelist for cryptocurrency mining.
This suggests that the whitelist is not foolproof and that some users are still finding ways to use Nvidia's GPUs for mining. The exact details of how this was achieved are not clear, but it raises questions about the effectiveness of Nvidia's measures to prevent unauthorized use of its technology.
Nvidia has not commented on the report or the specifics of the B300 servers in question.
