 Ad has me thinking about how far you can take immersion Bitcoin mining at home - heat your driveway? ⛏️

Imo yes, but it's a matter of economics: retail price + right sizing your op so heat is useful when there's no snow, eg a switch to heat pool/hot tub. Would take a bit of Engineering work, creativity & iteration 

Has any pleb installed immersion + radiant heat?

... and UBS says private blockchains are more innovative 🤣

 @Colin is gonna help me build Bitcoin miner powered floor heating when I have enough money to build my island citadel 🤙 
 Fuck yeah! 
 I expect it won't be long sir 🫡 
 No, but I can melt all the snow off my wooden deck by redirecting my miner's heat when I don't need it to warm the house. 
 Greenhouse, garage, workshop 
 Grinding through this information now. What a good fit for the North.
