They're complaining that the revenue was filed under gaming, but crypto miners bought gaming GPUs. How would Nvidia have possibly been able to separate those purchases from regular gamers?

This is fairly analogous to banks looking the other way at money laundering.

It points to the need for either more strict reporting and purchasing controls within the firm or more regulation.

Banks have tightened their internal policies to avoid more active government intervention to reduce money laundering.

Investors will get the analogy. A bank that let money laundering go unchecked and is facing scrutiny and a need to change protocols would see an adverse reaction from investors. No reason why Nvidia would not experience the same.
