So to my understanding, its basically more or less a lottery that requires electricity? I still don’t really understand how exactly it works but I’m more curious as to why it requires a strong GPU or in some cases multiple GPUs? How do the different high end GPUs contribute to bitcoin mining compared to lets say a low profile GPU? And also how does it use the GPU… is it similar to running a high demanding game or something along those lines?

GPUs are masters of parallelism. You feed it some code and tell it to run 64/128/256/512/1024… copies of the code at a time on different data.
