Texas is an ideal destination for miners, thanks to its abundance of solar and wind power, its unregulated market, and its crypto-friendly political stance.

hmm...

Rolling blackouts due to poor infrastructure, but sure, do your cryptocurrency mining there. Idiots.

There comes a point in everyone's life where they throw up their hands and say 'fuck it, life doesn't make a lick of sense anymore, I'm old, I'm not 'with it' and never will be again.' The rise of cryptocurrency might very well be that point in my own life.

And when it happens, this board will be all empathetic for about a week while the sensible users realize they just keep doing this shit to themselves.
Then Ted Cruz or some other shit dip Republican they've elected will raise the bar for stupidity/racism/whatever and we'll be right back to "LOL fuck Texas"

Can someone explain why crypto is such a burden on energy consumption? Serious question. Is it the added servers or something?

Solar and wind is definitely booming in Texas. I work for a renewable developer. We built a 500 MW solar project and a 500 MW wind project in 2019. I currently have 6 solar projects in development for the next couple years totaling like 1.5 GW. And these all are being built with battery storage on the side. And I'm only 1 person in 1 company.

Texas is such a great state. I hope they get rid of that property tax bullshit too. Then you'll really have to build that wall (from the rest of America).

i really thought people would be happier about this but i guess they're just too bitter to see the things they want to happen, happen
