Bitcoin mining doesn’t waste energy. It keeps energy from being wasted.

"The #bitcoin protocol (⚡️) can encompass the global financial transaction volume in all electronic payment systems today, w/out a single custodial 3rd party holding funds or requiring participants to have anything more than a computer using a broadband connection."

This is a pretty interesting research paper by the ECB's director of general market operations. Detailed sections on CBDCs, stablecoins, and Bitcoin/Lightning for improving cross-border payments.

We have been running Lightning nodes at @river since 2019 and have only seen a consistent, steadily accelerating increase in reliability, volume, and network functionality. When we extrapolate out this compounded growth we get very excited.

As some of you will now have seen, the judgement in my trial v Dr. Craig Wright has now been handed down. I want to thank my lawyers for their diligent work on the case. I also want to thank Mr Justice Chamberlain for this result. We are very pleased with his findings.

Those who oppose #Bitcoin mining on environmental grounds are the same people who opposed nuclear on the same grounds and are now declaring it green after their needs and incentives have changed. Base your own opinion on facts, not popular beliefs or propaganda.

Independent arguments for light-touch bitcoin/PoW regulation: 1. Energy regulation should be use-neutral; 2. Bitcoin’s value outweighs the energy/environment cost; 3. Mining is a net good for energy/environment. All combinations of 1-3 are consistent. Match audience/context.

Bitcoin could prove instrumental in accelerating renewable energy production, stabilizing our new, greener grid, and curbing methane emissions. This is not mere conjecture or fantasy. It is a view founded in the evidence, as @thetrocro and @jyn_urso show btcpolicy.org/articles/comme…

Texas miners shut down to relieve pressure on the grid. My feed: they should never have been on in the first place. Still a net negative, blah blah… Imagine this response to any other industry powering down during a grid emergency.

The fact that: a) The Bitcoin Policy Institute exists b) People line @craigwarmke & @resistancemoney are writing quality like this: btcpolicy.org/articles/neutr… Makes me incredibly bullish! #Bitcoin


Thanks for sharing our work @saylor! As part of @POTUS's EO, @TradeGov asked for information on digital assets. Our report explains what makes #bitcoin /proof of work special and how an open monetary network can advance key US interests. Check us out: btcpolicy.org
