 Totally.  You’re probably referring to the actual ASICS, but when I read this post my first thought was upstream at the power production and distribution level.  There’s opportunity throughout the entire power path from transforming chemical energy into electrical power all way down to and through the mining process. 

I’m originally a mechanical engineer but my career has been about power and cooling systems for offices and data centers. I left to reinvent myself as an online educator for engineers and I love it, but I sometimes think about reentering the industry just to work on mining.
