⚡️♻️ ALERT - Clean Cloud Act bill would require crypto miners to reduce emissions or face fines.

Senate Democrats have introduced a bill to set regional limits on emissions from crypto mining facilities and AI data centers.

Regional caps would be reduced by 11% per year until reaching zero by 2035, requiring facilities to run on 100% renewable energy.

Heavy fines would be imposed on facilities exceeding this cap.

Totally symbolic. And a bad symbol at that. No way something this retarded gets passed until another loser dem becomes president.

not quite sure how computers emit greenhouse gas but ok 🤣

This will either be ineffectual or push miners overseas. They have to compete globally, and can’t be inundated with stupid regulations.

Unnecessary for Bitcoin miners as the market incentives push the network towards renewables on their own. This will just add inefficiencies to the process of becoming a miner because you'll have to spend energy to prove your in compliance. A regulation being a useless waste of time.
