Another great season of My Life Is Murder with @RealLucyLawless has come and gone and I never once appeared in the background despite running past “Reuben’s” while they were filming.
@btcvalhalla@greenpeaceusa@DSBatten@willywoo So miners can soak up excess supply right? But can’t push anything back onto the grid when there is excess demand. And unless they are all turned off during high energy demand aren’t they making it worse?
@greenpeaceusa@craigstanton@DSBatten@willywoo The renewables grid will need a demand response to maintain stability as they are intermittent sources. In the absence of grid-scale batteries, (which are decades away at scale) Bitcoin mining can play a vital role providing that grid stability.
FACT: #Bitcoin mining is driving millions of tons of new global warming pollution in the US
MYTH: Burning "waste" methane can green bitcoin
REALITY: Burning waste gas does nothing to reduce fossil fuel consumption and is even keeping old gas wells open bit.ly/3T6X5Vv
@craigstanton@DSBatten@willywoo@greenpeaceusa Do a little research on how electric grids operate and the delicate balance between electric supply and demand and then you’ll be able to answer your own question
@greenpeaceusa FACT: @Greenpeaceusa, a former grassroots organisation, took $5M from Ripple's CEO to spread misinformation about Bitcoin
MYTH: Bitcoin is bad for the environment
REALITY: Bitcoin stabilizes grids, makes solar&wind profitable & is helping slash global methane emissions
I don't understand why the government didn't decide on what actions to take after the queen's death a long time ago. Seems like this was quite predictable.
