I'm in Texas visiting family and was talking about all the bitcoin mining here. tried to convince people how great it was for the grid. started looking up articles and found this. what is your guys take on this. says miners buy power "before the meter" for cheap and sell it back to the grid at a lot higher price.

 so I've been trying to make a lightening address on iris for awhile with no luck. I just recently got primal to try out different clients and went to make a wallet but realized that it's kyc. do I have to give up my identity to make a wallet 

 This is my first experience with nostr. Still figuring out how everything works. Can't wait till I get the lightening address figured out so I can start zapping people.
