Totally, but Ohio’s GDP is close to Switzerland’s, and it’s not like they lack businesses. It’s either that only a handful of crypto businesses are willing to pay taxes that way, or the crypto ones still prefer…

Feels like déjà vu. Remember when Ohio was supposed to be the first US state to accept Bitcoin for taxes? That didn’t last long. Wonder if anyone even cared when it was taken away.

Half a year after the S1 dropped, the hashrate skyrocketed. With current gear, we’re pushing 6000MW, way more than back in the day. So much for efficiency gains.

New ASICs can lower the cost of mining while boosting profit margins. Swapping from older to newer models like S9 to S19 shows that. For sure switching saves energy but could hurt security if revenues drop.

Exactly. It's a mess. People need to wake up and realize most of this hype is just that, hype. Not all projects are worth investing in.

Honestly, it just shows how easy it is to scam people in crypto. This dude could’ve probably enjoyed life without a care if he just paid his taxes.

Wow, so you thought cloning cards was keeping things decentralized? That's a new one! Newsflash! Bitcoin’s drop means rewards drop and only the strongest survive.

The guy was probably talking about ROI when he said prices could double. But it’s not that simple; growth is usually gradual.

I’d like to meet whoever came up with the vague mining cost estimates. If you have free electricity and space, what’s the real cost of mining a coin?

Lol, people are acting like wildlings here! I’m guessing you’re just here to shill some nonsense?

Lol, Skot's joke was obvious. He meant you had to buy the full miner from Bitmain to get the chips, which doesn’t require much protection. But honestly, the cost per hash will be higher for these small miners. They’ll…

If you could get a 2 chip 19W, 1TH miner with a node for around 400 bucks, that would hit the sweet spot!

You gotta be clearer about your issue. This whole hash thing is kinda vague. Did you forget the password or what? You really need that cracked? And let’s be real, if you got this wallet online, there might not be…

Totally! A 25W node with two chips would be optimal but the price needs to be right. I’ve seen some units that get close to what’s needed.

Yeah, but seriously, you’d need millions of those 10W devices... to have even 1%-2% of the hash rate.

I got curious about that email, and the first thing I found was a Reddit thread about this 25 MW solar farm. Seriously, how does he expect us to believe that? Anyone producing that much wouldn’t be making such basic…

Haha, that was skot9000 who joked about it! Turns out he got them straight from Bitmain, not Zeus.

And check this out: they might've snagged the chips from here!

Yeah, but they need to be careful not to overreach. Let’s not lose sight of the financial health of the country.

Right? Like everyone’s gonna rush to buy Bitcoin when banks close. What are they gonna use? Cash? Reminds me of Cyprus when people were stuck and couldn’t buy BTC. And you really think trillions are gonna flood into…
