Ithis going to end upa personal thread to return to and refresh thoughts. Please feel free to add comments. If stray gas can be used for mining, is there a rational business model that is win-win to scaling up decentralised mining? A method thats rationally viable to offer less well off plebs to access free or cheap energy thst balances the drilling and production costs? Does it have to partially be altruistic? If one is a true believer in the potential of decentralised systems, is providing that resource, potentially at ones own expense potentially self serving in network resilience to protect ones own butcoin wealth. Selfish altruism in a system of circular positive incentivisation?

Max Keiser also once mentioned that the next war was #Bitcoin vs AI. We are obviously going through an energy shift recently with Microsoft doubling it's energy use in a couple of years due to the expansion of data centers and we also see this reflected in chip manufacturer share prices etc etc.
We also now have true money backed by energy. A true representation of the principal value in human society. Wealth increases linearly with energy consumption.
Surely looking at all these elements means that potentially, the primary paradigm for the upcoming decades is a shift of success trending to those who understand and develop the methods that drive a push to the lowest marginal cost of energy. All energy conversion to value will allow smaller energy generation at the margins to potentially revolutionise all communities regardless of isolation based on their understanding of that pricipal. Many changes to human condition could result.
Maybe just repeating trodden path.... thinking and pondering!
