    We don't really need anything other than fiat if we could responsibly reduce our debt. The more I learn about bitcoin, the more I see it's just the latest fugazy pushed by people who got in early and are now destroying the power grid and environment for their selfish power play. What the scammers have done is convinced the state and citizens to support it all while marketing itself as not being tied to the state. As one man said, "An issue of socialize the problems but privatize the gain".

    Trump has doubled his net worth in a short span



    Why should I suffer so a bunch of bitcoin creepo's can get fabulously wealthy? I never voted for that.

    We went to a small Texas town where one Bitcoin mining facility uses as much power as the entire city of Austin. Everyone is town is affected by the constant noise from the crypto facility, even the animals. One resident told us: "Every person here is sick."

    super low iq post. Don't peak under the AI hood because it just might expose you for being an idiot.

    If that facility were to shut down . . .say extented power outage or something
    What would be the effect?
    What would the impact on the Public? The people with coins there?
