When the bubble bursts, used computer components are going to be real cheap. Even just a few liquidated data centers will provide a ton of used supply.
I don’t think this is sustainable because it seems like a closed loop that eventually stops making money without any new inputs.

Though that supply will be a bit annoying.
Oh look, super expensive GPUs… In an HGX board that is useless for even connecting to a PC, let alone have graphics.
Memory modules, but they are HBM or otherwise soldered to a Grace board…
SSDs, but EDSFF… Guess at least a cage for this could be some for home usage.
HDDs, but SAS. Not too or of reach for home builds, but still not as likely to just plug into home gear as SATA.

They will probably smash it all up and send it out as e-waste.

Or they will salvage what they can and sell it
