I appreciate your support, but I’m going to push back on your statement that we need to find a way to increase miners efficiency.

That’s not at all the answer.

The answer is that mining bitcoin should happen where it is appropriate to do so when considering all externalities. A great example is Bitmain’s mining location at what was once the worlds largest aluminum smelter. An energy intensive facility designed with a co-located power plant repurposed for bitcoin mining.

Humanity itself is energy intensive. The more we grow, the more energy intensive we become.

We need to stop bickering and fighting over this fact, and embrace its realities.

Carbon neutrality is a red herring. Energy efficiency is simply a way to use old infrastructure to support more electrical usage.

My only real point in this long discussion is that all electrical use is not equal, and there are specific infrastructure demands that high electrical usage creates. If everyone in the country added a home miner to their house, most likely circuits would trip all around.

Where I would agree with your statement regarding efficiency, is with the electrical grid on a whole. That is the real discussion to be had. Electrical infrastructure around the world is both fragile and inefficient.

Bitcoiners need to stand with electrical utilities to embrace nuclear energy, transmission lines, and updated circuits to embrace the next 100years of energy intensive activists we are embarking upon.
