 Adam Back: There’s actually enough unused hydro power that’s connected to the grid and ready to use that it could power the entire #Bitcoin network just out of the unused power. Of course there are lots more hydro resources globally both constructed and untapped, so even on the hydro side there’s a lot of upside. And of course, I think #Bitcoin is a great vehicle for providing the business fundamentals to fund building more power infrastructure, to drive economic growth for the future.
