ZOTAC Promotes Cryptocurrency Mining Farm via Twitter

Exactly, they put the cards out on the market, they don't care who buys them. You can't get mad at a company for that.
But you can.. This industry wouldn't have gone anywhere without gamers who poured tons of money into the market simply for entertainment, but when this business became worth a lot, rich individuals seeking to make money on a matured industry came to seize it all, and companies have forgotten what made them successful, they ditched everyone and went on the quest to maximize profits, even if it means making millions of ordinary "gamers" miserable these past 2 years.
It doesn't seem like you can get a GPU to play anymore, it has become an excessively rich hobby because it's become a money machine for an obnoxious minority, now you either join them or you can forget about building a computer for this year at least.

Gamers will rise with R7 5xxxG cpu's if those really will have RDNA2. I want to believe 60fps on full hd at medium/high settings.

you meant GPU's,? FPS isnt determined by the CPU.
 
No one put a gun to their head, for entertainment :rolleyes:
Lets say this another way. No one willingly put a gun to their head for entertainment. Russian Roulette?

No you can't. Especially if you can't provide a viable solution to the problem. If you just say "the miners are buying all my GPUs and I'm mad at nVidia and AMD for letting them" without offering up how they could change that, then you really just come off as a whiny crybaby.
