So… ocean, huh?

Thoughts?

I like it very much. I like the idea of making it easy for anyone to be involved, and incentivising miners right. I like the principles and genuineness behind it. The fact that this unfolds in the US, showcases Bitcoin's +ve impact on renewables despite regulatory hurdles. And they can replicate and increase this types of solutions which makes it expandable and investor friendly for growth.

I also really love the concept of incentivizing more innovations around ‘renewables x bitcoin minings’ around the world.

Another idea is to fund Bitcoin homeowners in exchanging roofs for solar panels, allowing them to offset cost (panels, installation) through monthly energy generation. This not only facilitates Bitcoin mining but also generates additional income for homeowners over time. And benefits the country with additional supply. It's a concept that’s being tested here (not for Bitcoin) but it appears promising. Offering bounties for innovative solutions in repurposing or reducing heat for home miners would be pretty awesome too. All these efforts increases small pockets of entrepreneurship around the Bitcoin ecosystem globally (cc nostr:npub1sg6plzptd64u62a878hep2kev88swjh3tw00gjsfl8f237lmu63q0uf63m in the event these ideas are relevant and catches on)

I think enabling these types of innovative paths is just awesome. It gets the fire started and going. Super loved how crude and dirty and original the hydro power plant was shown - real world.

I just loved that my morning started with so much of positive energy! =)

Wow thanks for sharing your thoughts! Agree with all of it 🤝

If home miner could mitigate noise and heat and actually make use of heat even in summer (without any effort) that would be interesting.

It would also be super helpful to perform some calculations to see if a miner investment would be worth it in terms of profitability after electric costs. In some countries electricity is more expensive and I’d love to plug in my numbers to see if the math makes sense.

If all adds up, I don’t see why home miner “box” maker couldn’t partner with home builders (hopefully providing incentives for them in the process) to scale it up.
