This brings up another topic. The chinese has leapfrogged us in technology, and we have yet to realize it... in the mainstream its something we talk about happening "possibly" in the future. But looking at the miners: asia is at 7nm (such as the latest SHA256 miners, and 5nm coming?)... and we can't make our own medical masks. jesus... im afraid. I feel like we are just a system of finance, laws/patents.
This is probably why Taiwan is such a hot button topic. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think Intel, AMD, and others are all ordering from TSMC.
