RE: Venezuelans who are mining Bitcoin are being arrested and extorted by the government for "theft of energy" [EN-US]

in #venezuela8 years ago

Hate to say it but, so long as bitcoin uses a hare-brained mining scheme which actually is hugely wastefully of energy, I can understand governments being pissed over such energy wastage...

Is not a waste of energy, if you are using that for mining to eat.

It's all theoretical until you're faced with eating rats for breakfast, lunch AND dinner.
