It also incentivises capturing stranded energy sources in addition to consuming what would otherwise be waste.

Anyone that suggests that we need to conserve energy is still thinking in context of the prior paradigm.

Bitcoin is in the process of unlocking energy abundance for all of Humanity. This is an epic level-up for our species that I don't think most people appreciate yet.

This is how we incentivise our way to Kardashev Type I and beyond.

Is every minor crisis in your life a major financial setback? Tired of feeling like you can never get ahead?

It's because you can't. Fiat currency ensures you're a debt slave to the politicians and bankers all your life. You cannot save in fiat currency. The game is literally rigged against you.

Then you die. Just as poor or poorer than you started, leaving nothing to anyone except more debt.

It's time to use the escape hatch. #OptOut, #UseBitcoin and #SaveInBitcoin.

I have a feeling today is going to be a fantastic day, so I'm posting about it.

Happy First #Bitcoin Transaction Day!!! (:

I found it on X but didn't want to link people to X.

Is moderation in moderation a recursive loop that results in zero moderation at all? (:

Bitcoin demonetizes real-estate.

Today's #CardSneakPeek is the standard way to mine bitcoin these days, the "ASIC Miner", and the most powerful way to generate hash rate in the game.

###

#033 - ASIC Miner

The "ASIC Miner" card is a Hardware card. It costs 3 bitcoin or the fiat equivalent to put into play. Once in play, it requires 3 energy to activate which will generate 5 hash rate.

Players' hash rates are compared at the end of each round to determine who gets to mine a block. Mining a block processes and resolves Mempool Action cards that have been played into the mempool and the Player who mines the block wins the 1 bitcoin reward.

Rarity: The "ASIC Miner" card is of the Rare rarity in the Core 2025 card set. These should pull occasionally in starter decks and booster packs, but you may need to trade with others to get more than a couple of them.

The "ASIC Miner" card is of the Hardware type. Hardware cards are cards that usually consume energy to perform a specific function. This card generates hash rate directly, however there are more general purpose Hardware like Computers that can run arbitrary Software.

Strategy: The "ASIC Miner" card is a very powerful way to generate a lot of hash rate. As earning 1 bitcoin at the end of each round for mining a block is one of the common strategies to win, being the hash leader each round is essential for such strategies.

In short, while expensive to play and activate, the "ASIC Miner" is one of the most powerful Hardware cards in the game and will help ensure that you are the hash leader each round.

Happy Solstice Everyone! (:

Happy #HODL Day everyone! (:
