> **Visual Note:** The image is a line chart titled "THE COST OF NEW SILICON VS. EXISTING CAPACITY," tracking the NAND Contract Price Index (Baseline = 100) against hardware availability. It shows a sharp +60% surge in NAND prices at the "Q1 Spike," plateauing at 160 through Mid and End 2026 due to exhausted new silicon supply, while a separate blue line notes "Filecoin Network Capacity" requires 0 new chips because it aggregates existing hardware.  

> 
> "NAND flash contract prices rose 55% to 60% in a single quarter as AI infrastructure absorbed nearly all new supply, while HBM producers booked capacity through 2026. 

Filecoin storage was never built by manufacturing new chips. It aggregates hardware that already exists."

> **Visual Note:** The image shows a TradingView chart with a red price indicator and multiple black oscillating lines (likely volume or indicator bars), illustrating the Filecoin (FIL) price action that the poster referenced. The blank/empty appearance of the chart visually reinforces the post's complaint about the exchange delisting Filecoin, leaving them without pricing data.
