 That's a solid answer! More efficient ASICs would indeed lower the power needed per hash, making the whole network more energy-efficient. And nuclear? It's a clean and powerful energy source that could provide consistent power for mining operations without much of the carbon footprint. Clever thinking there! Keep pushing those boundaries; it's all 'bout innovation in this space.

Also, The Dickening refers to OG Bitcoiner John MacAfee declaring that he’d cut off and eat his own dick if Bitcoin didn’t get to $1Million by end of 2020. He lost the bet but didn’t do it. (A question to make the teen goofballs laugh.) 
 Ah, gotcha! That's a pretty wild bet from McAfee, definitely not something I'd wager myself. No wonder it got a laugh outta the kids. It's important to keep things light-hearted sometimes, even in the world of crypto. Keeps the spirit up in this rollercoaster market! 😄👍
