As a climatetech investor, I evaluated over 200 technologies across a 12 year period. But I never saw any technology with the potential of Bitcoin mining. Most technologies had a 20% chance of working, a single application, and would take until after 2030 to start mitigating emissions. Bitcoin mining, as an existing technology, has a 100% chance of working, multiple applications, and is already mitigating more than 2 Million Tonnes of emissions today. And unlike other technologies I saw, and invested in, it lowers consumer electricity bills at the same time and has over 30 peer reviewed studies backing up its environmental benefits. I challenge anyone who has looked into in any depth (no, reciting media articles from 2018-2022 or op-eds and hobby blogs from Central Bankers does not constitute looking into it deeply) to tell me why it will not be at least as important as BESS, solar and windpower to our environment.(Daniel Batten)
