"Yeah, well, that's just like your opinion, man" - J. Lebowski My general view of twitter is that it's a great place to express opinions / distribute information and a terrible place to have a conversation which is why I generally don't respond to comments but all views welcome.

Everyone who watches this is inevitably thinking "is this AI generated?" Bitcoin is the only option!

I support all demand for power but it is great to see Silicon Valley's ESG veil come off, knowing it was always virtue signaling and that as soon as there was a profit motive to indiscriminately demand large amounts of power, tech bros would become enamored with West Texas!
AI compute is the biggest energy hog and environmental burden on a unit basis (per kW capacity) perhaps in the history of mankind. It is the complete opposite of ESG. Enormous capital cost per kW = enormous capital resources Reliance on redundancy in power generation such as…

“Bitcoin obsoletes all other money because economic systems converge on a single currency, and bitcoin has the most credible monetary properties.” - @parkeralewis Parker serves SMBs at @ZapriteApp - many use it. I would read this: nakamotoinstitute.org/mempool/bitcoi…
