Ironically(?), bitcoin, with its everlasting need to make calculations drawing minimum power, was the incentive that drove the market for this all along. The impasse was the electric bill of mining a coin exceeded the btc value.... no longer. Proving again, how free market libertarians are so easily manipulated into haphazardly doing the dangerous and morally bankrupt bidding of three-letter-agencies, under the guise of "capitalism." (See, google, twitter, bitcoin, et al -- all enormous darlings of the L's, and spook creations that have grown to be the biggest slave-drivers in the history of the world.) Libertarians are, in this respect, easier to manipulate, predict, and are more dangerous than low-T liberals; and who are the true driving force behind these "darling" free market tech tools that enable "elites", marxists, jews, and satanists.
