Measuring humanity’s #advancement by its ability to harness as much energy as possible from its planet

A concept introduced by Soviet astronomer Nikolai Kardashev in 1964, known as the Kardashev Scale

This scale suggests that the more #energy a civilization can extract from its planet, the more advanced it becomes

I find this idea fascinating when considering #Bitcoin and #BitcoinMining. To remain profitable, #miners must continuously find the most cost-reductive ways to harness energy from Earth, keeping pace with the growing processing power required for mining

In this way, Bitcoin mining acts as a catalyst for harnessing Earth’s abundant energy resources, helping us advance towards energy mastery and evolving our position in the scale
