A fairly remarkable short BBC profile of Gridless's work using Bitcoin mining to convert stranded or wasted energy to value

As we move forward, you'll slowly see more and more of this until eventually it is "mainstream" that Bitcoin is pretty much good and healthy for everyone and the planet

Every new transformative technology encounters years or even decades of pessimism... Bitcoin will be no different

How many years until BTC is no longer presented as a default negative energy consumer to society?

I give it one more epoch

brilliant ! More please !

Bitcoin makes me feel so cozy in my heart for all the good it brings to the earth and all beings. Saving to watch later.

Bitcoin makes sense.

Since AI is currently "boiling the oceans" the greenies can safely ignore Bitcoin again. Or was that too much credit and logic and is bitcoin just not new enough of a subject any longer for blue haired people to cry about...

One thing I miss on Nostr is that, under a post like this on Twitter, I could see some confused normies asking questions, some die hard idiots denying obvious reality. It gave me a reasonable pulse on what the rest of the world is thinking. I would also try to answer the honest questions with some learning material, and troll the idiots.

Sometimes it's too much an echo chamber here :-/

😀

Mostly interesting that the BBC is now allowed to report on an obvious truth, whereas before they were only allowed to report "Bitcoin bad" stories

Pls sir, i wanna zap. :)

They mention bitcoin but they mention certain marches attended by thousands that start and end up at their world headquarters: https://www.rajeshtaylor.com/m/ministry-of-propaganda-to-downing-street-childrens-walking-tour

What an amazing outcome in these communities - bitcoin lights the way. Nice change from the hyperbolic climate FUD we've faced over the years. Media still needs some coaching on stranded power and how the power purchase agreements work in states like TX, but this is progress

Is it just me, or does the anchor look like she’s wearing a Star Trek uniform?

Every generation has a major speculative bubble. Crypto is that bubble.

People will look back and won't believe how stupid people were to buy it

Hi gladstein 🤟🏴‍☠️😉 Gridless is a great example of how Bitcoin can turn wasted or stranded energy into value, showcasing its potential beyond just a financial asset. By using Bitcoin mining to incentivize the use of underutilized energy, projects like Gridless highlight Bitcoin’s ability to support renewable energy and decentralize power generation. This challenge to the narrative that Bitcoin harms the environment shows the technology can be part of the solution, creating value while addressing energy inefficiencies.

As more initiatives like this emerge, Bitcoin’s role in sustainability and innovation will become undeniable, shifting the long-standing skepticism about its impact. Just as with other transformative technologies, Bitcoin will gradually gain mainstream acceptance as its real-world benefits become more visible.

#Gridless initiative is awesome ⚡️🔋🔌

#bitcoin #mining helping human needs 💜☀️
