Read_467 - Bitcoin Doesn't Rely on Utilities [Rollo McFloogle]

"But there is something even more interesting that happens with mining and electricity. Not only does Bitcoin mining add revenue to existing locations of energy production, but it also makes other previously unprofitable energy sources profitable." - Rollo McFloogle

A Guest post from both a patron to the show and host of the Rollo & Slappy Show, we dive into a Bitcoin Magazine piece by Rollo McFloogle.

Maybe they are just an idiot, like Grum… hear all about it in today's article, "Bitcoin Does Not Rely on Utilities."
