 Now that Bitcoin is about to go mainstream we see this. Interesting. 

I remember back in 2020 and 2021 on multiple sub reddits they would post bitcoin energy use doom articles every week. Thousands of upvotes and comments screeching about it boiling the oceans. I wonder if this will make its way to any of those subs? 

That place is a commie hellhole and I haven’t been on the site in years. But this will devastate some retard lefties there. 
 Not boiling the ocean anymore?

 Didn't read but I'm puzzled by the cover picture. What are they trying to achieve? Using the Bitcoin souvenir coin as a heatsink for the microcontroller?
I know, I'm just ovethinking a stupid illustration picture but still.
