US gov to Bitcoin miners: "we want to know how much energy you're using because of the environmental impact"

US gov inside baseball: we want to know how much energy they're using so we can calculate tax revenues

[Context: the US is proposing a 30% tax on energy used by miners, whether on grid or off-grid/self generating 🤯]

It's comical how much they act like gangsters. It's just an attempted shakedown. Aka politics.

What they're saying is pay me protection money in the form of campaign contributions and nepotism. Or I'll machine gun your business lol.

The problem for them is that #Bitcoin doesn't need their protection or any nation state lol..🤧😂🤣🧡😊
