More powerful bitcoin miners are released each year. What will happen to the old ones? Will they become obsolete because they aren’t efficient enough? Tyler doesn’t think so. A thread 🧵




The #hashtub at Nashville Energy and Mining Summit at @bitcoinpark_ us up and running! Temp is at 101F/40C with an outside temp of 32F/0C. Plus it just has been tested and Kids approved :)



🎙️ Tune in to #BitcoinFundamentals where @PrestonPysh and Michael Schmid @Schnitzel explore Bitcoin mining's integration with home heating. This episode delves into innovative energy solutions and the strategic impacts of the Red Sea conflict on global trade and the US dollar system. Check out the highlights of the episode: • An analysis of the Red Sea's role in global trade and its geopolitical significance. • How the conflict in the Red Sea region affects international maritime trade and shipping routes. • Discussion on the influence of the Red Sea conflict on the stability and dominance of the US dollar. • Insights into the broader implications of maritime security issues on global trade. • Understanding the complex interplay between geopolitical events and their impact on global trade dynamics. • How Bitcoin mining can be integrated with domestic heating systems, particularly for water heating. • Understanding the environmental considerations and sustainability aspects of using Bitcoin mining rigs. • Exploring the potential and challenges of using renewable energy sources for Bitcoin mining. • Latest trends and technological advancements in the field of Bitcoin mining. • Insights into the technical setup and operation of at-home Bitcoin mining rigs.

Presenting: The #Hashtub - a mobile #Bitcoin Mining Heated HotTub - Transportable - 2x S19J Pro with up to 8kW of heating power - Heats the HotTub from 60F/15C to 104F/40C in 4h - Fully OpenSource (build videos coming) - Soon at your Bitcoin Event, next stop: @bitcoinpark_

.@greenpeaceusa has shown no interest in actually changing bitcoin's code. Else, they would have hired someone to explore the technical options. (They haven't.) They would have worked with environmentalists within the bitcoin community to engender support for such a change, so that the resulting fork might have a chance of success. (They haven't.) If they cared about bitcoin's impact on the environment, they'd have learned about methane mitigation, whether on oil fields or in landfills. (They haven't.) They'd have learned about the valley-filling and peak-shaving effects of a low-paying, time-agnostic, flexible user over power. (They haven't.) They'd have learned what "location agnosticism" means for an energy system that is transmission-constrained. (They haven't.) They'd have learned that none of the energy used to mine bitcoin is destroyed, but becomes low-grade heat, which we are using in ever more innovative ways. (They haven't.) They'd have learned that bitcoin is driven to find the cheapest electricity in the world, and such a buyer, if flexible, portable, and scalable, is, in the long run, a good thing for the energy transition. (They haven't.) They'd have actually read and engaged with the content of the KPMG report they high-handedly dismiss in a recent editorial. (They haven't.) They'd have learned the difference between coal and coal refuse. (They haven't.) They'd have taken up the issue of irrational energy subsidies, and environmental cleanup subsidies, with governments rather than pinning those issues on bitcoin miners. (They haven't.) They'd have weighed the environmental impacts of bitcoin mining against the good it provides to millions worldwide. (They haven't.) They'd have met with @DSBatten, who is actually trying to drive the network towards greenhouse-gas neutrality. (They haven't.) They haven't done any of these things, or anything like them. What HAVE they done? Hector bitcoiners. Shame is their only tool. And that's because it isn't, and never was, about changing the code, nor saving the environment. Their goal was always to create reputational risk for anyone involving their life with bitcoin, and to trigger anti-bitcoin legislation. They have nearly admitted as much in their tweets. And that would repay their billionaire crypto-magnate donor handsomely. Except... it hasn't worked. Their posts are uninformed, off-putting, tiresome. They're routinely ratioed by anyone who bothers to post a reply. They're screeching into the void. This isn't nuclear, where Greenpeace and the Sierra Club set back clean, abundant energy by decades. Nuclear was an ill-understood and emerging technology, like bitcoin. It struck the imagination, like bitcoin, in a new and terrifying way. But nuclear wasn't a people's movement. Bitcoin is. There are tens of thousands of us who are educated on the above questions. An average pleb knows more than the Greenpeace mercenaries on the above issues. And we're defending home turf (bitcoin and Earth.) Meanwhile, the reality on the ground is that as bitcoin mining's margins grow slimmer and we approach another halving, the scary models look ever more ridiculous, like the 2017 Newsweek/WEF headline that bitcoin will use all the world's energy by 2020. Simultaneously, we are seeing mining innovation blossom, as it grows into the unique "dung beetle" role for which it was always destined. We are going to win.

Heat recovery is coming to Bitcoin mining at scale: Marathon is trialing heat recovery in aquaculture & agriculture applications Bitcoin Mining is a cleantech enabler. It's supporting renewables + food security + grid resiliency + carbon mitigation
