Nvidia projects crypto mining revenue to triple by the end of Q1 2021 Comments Nvidia recently held an Investor Day conference for shareholders, where they revealed their estimates for when they think the global graphics card shortage will ease up by. But the Green Team also revealed they are expecting crypto mining revenue to triple by the end of the first quarter. More specifically, their revenue estimate for their new Cryptocurrency Mining Processor (CMP) lineup for â industrial-scale cryptocurrency miningâ has been increased from $50 million to $150 million by the end of the first quarter of 2021 (May 2nd). That seems to suggest that their new CMP range has been quite the success. The main reason behind the range of crypto mining cards (apart from capitalizing on the latest craze) was to bring some of the miners away from the gaming segment towards a crypto-focused area, hopefully freeing up availability for actual gamers in need of a new-gen GPU.
