🇳🇱 Farm in the Netherlands uses Bitcoin mining to keep stable temperatures inside the greenhouse 👀

@Bitcoin_Teddy Hmm, so instead of letting the sun warm your greenhouse, you put a solar panel in the middle to block it (and reflect a bunch back) and then try and power a computer? (hint... this will mine pennies worth of BTC). Everytime you convert energy forms you lose power.

@Bitcoin_Teddy 3-5kw per asic is not “saving” and solar panels dont work 24/7

@Bitcoin_Teddy @grok am I boomer or is this true?

@Bitcoin_Teddy It may not be a true closed loop, but it does look like an internal circular system: mining creates heat, the heat supports plant growth, and the plants ultimately feed people.

@Bitcoin_Teddy using the byproduct of one system to run another. that’s just good engineering.

@Bitcoin_Teddy im sure humidity wont damage servers very soon...

@Bitcoin_Teddy Tulips and Bitcoin mining, the story writes itself.

@Bitcoin_Teddy that's really cool I am working on find same solutions on heat temperature and uses in Mexico if you have old machinees to mine BTC or other equipment I will love to see if I can buy it to test environmental solutions to mine cryptos

@Bitcoin_Teddy Everyone said Bitcoin mining heat was wasted energy. A Dutch farmer said "actually, my tomatoes are cold." Problem solved.

@Bitcoin_Teddy @grok how many btc have they mined so far?

@Bitcoin_Teddy This sounds so stupid, so you cover the crops with a roof of solar panels, so sunlight doesnt get through... Nice! Then you run the bitcoin miners which generate heat .... Then you pump the heat to the crops??? Stupid is what stupid does!!

@Bitcoin_Teddy nice to see crypto projects actually visibly add value somewhere instead of promising empty hype

Free Cone Day is here! Come celebrate with us at a DQ location on today by getting a FREE small vanilla cone 🍦

@Bitcoin_Teddy isn’t bitcoin mining almost useless nowadays? feels like they could use those machines for inference or smth

@Bitcoin_Teddy Farmers mining Bitcoin for greenhouse warmth Plants living the good life Me watching from my screen With my phone and cold coffee Greenhouse effect done right I guess ☕

@Bitcoin_Teddy This is called double duty

@Bitcoin_Teddy This is the kind of utility story critics miss: mining as controllable load can monetize excess energy and stabilize greenhouse climate at the same time. Do you think agritech + mining becomes a serious niche this cycle?

@Bitcoin_Teddy This is what Bitcoin critics miss. Mining heat is not waste. It's a byproduct waiting for a use case. Greenhouses, district heating, fish farms. The list keeps growing. Bitcoin doesn't just store value. It generates it.

Another one of those hair brained ideas. Heat from a bitcoin farm is roughly 30% as efficient as just burning natural gas. Cost of heating with natural gas is stable and predictable, while the net value of mining a bitcoin swings wildly and is massively negative as of now. So if you just happen to have a buddy wanting to get rid of heat, assuming you can stand the noise and intermittentness, fine. But this is no way of running a farm, unless you are mostly using natural gas for heating anyway...

@Bitcoin_Teddy Nederlandse mentaliteit. Maak van je probleem een oplossing. Heerlijk!

@Bitcoin_Teddy imagine heating your whole house in the winter with a btc miner like my family

It’s time to dance! Get it on tournament action with Bonus Bets from FanDuel.

@Bitcoin_Teddy At peak Tulipmania nearly 400 years ago, the price of some tulip bulbs could equal the price of an Amsterdam house. Mining for 21st century Tulipmania (Bitcoin) now warms a greenhouse growing tens of thousands of these tulips worth just $2 each. Human nature changes not.

@Bitcoin_Teddy I created a similar system here: youtu.be/jtQ1VzeA1Hk?si…

@Bitcoin_Teddy So don’t consider the environment costs of making solar panels and the heavy metal contamination of the surrounding soil. Typical short term thinking.

@Bitcoin_Teddy Waste heat is a great way to jack up the efficiency of modern equipment. CHP architecture FTW.

@Bitcoin_Teddy There are projects where heat from Bitcoin mining is used to grow salmon, tomatoes, and even marijuana.

@Bitcoin_Teddy so turns cold as Ice when the sun goes down? What is it with people and their obsession with part time power?

@Bitcoin_Teddy What a brilliant idea. BITCOIN FOR THE WIN.

@Bitcoin_Teddy Except for the fact that tulips only are cold when the sun does not shine and the solar panels produce no electricity brilliant plan. In summer they rather need airco instead 🤓

@Bitcoin_Teddy Bitcoin doesn't haVE any UsEcASes 🤡

@Bitcoin_Teddy Haha that business will now get taxed every year on their theoretical profits 😅 Perfect business idea

@Bitcoin_Teddy Heat pumps are far more efficient for heating, delivering 2–4× more heat per unit of electricity, while Bitcoin miners act as simple 1:1 electric heaters. Miners can offset costs by earning revenue, but they’re noisy, power-hungry, and less cost-effective overall.

@Bitcoin_Teddy Few years ago I used a Monero rig to heat my house in winter. I broke even, ie. “free” heating, generated enough to cover the bill. I don’t know why not more people do this.

@Bitcoin_Teddy Normies be like “ what does bitcoin do though? It’s not backed by anything like a stock market business!!”

@Bitcoin_Teddy That's the best use for BTC in the Netherlands in 2028.

@Bitcoin_Teddy Yes but is the cost adjusted for unrealised capital gains tax

@Bitcoin_Teddy I adore the armchair farmers and electricians in the comments, saying all sorts of crap to show how “smart” they are, while people in the video run the business with a huge greenhouse and bitcoin farming as a byproduct)
