Wall Street wants Bitcoin, the House of Representatives wants Bitcoin, and now the Senate wants #Bitcoin.

MASSIVE BRREAKING: New research co-authored by a former Greenpeace activist and an environmental economist (Ph.D.) confirms that #Bitcoin mining is a powerful tool to cleanup the environment and mitigate methane emissions. THIS PAPER SHOWS THAT: 🌎Bitcoin is good for the environment 💰Bitcoin can fund methane cleanup ♻️ Bitcoin converts waste to economic value 🚗 If 1% of the #BTC network converts to vented methane it would eliminate the emissions equivalent of 9 billion miles driven by a gas-powered vehicle. This new research challenges the common perception of #Bitcoin mining. It flips the current narrative that "Bitcoin mining is bad for the environment" on its head and instead highlights how #Bitcoin can serve as a powerful force for good. YOU MUST READ THIS PAPER: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.… This groundbreaking paper, led by @SatoshiEducate and @NodalPower, underscores the potential for #Bitcoin mining to serve as a "sustainable economic model for methane mitigation" and shows how #Bitcoin can transform "an environmental challenge into a viable economic asset." The paper further states that just 1.14 MW of mining could mitigate 2,187 metric tons of CH4 annually, which is equivalent to 156,000,000 miles driven by a gasoline-powered passenger vehicle. To put this into context, the #Bitcoin mining network operates at ~6,000 MW in the USA alone. If just 1% of Bitcoin mining in America switched to vented methane, it would equate to 131,220 metric tons of CH4 reduction. That is the same as 9,000,000,000 (yes, that's 9 billion!) miles driven by an average gasoline-powered vehicle.

Bitcoin mining has often been criticized for its high energy consumption, but this model alters that narrative. By utilizing landfill methane, #Bitcoin transforms a notorious environmental offender into a clean, revenue-generating energy source. The study utilized data from Nodal Power, a landfill #Bitcoin miner who takes a cutting-edge approach with their patented technology to mitigate methane right here in the USA. Without their support, this paper would not have been possible. The paper was also co-authored by Daniel Batten (@DSBatten) and Dr. Murray Rudd (@DrMurrayRudd). Daniel, a former Greenpeace activist, is now a leading advocate for the potential of Bitcoin mining to reduce emissions from landfills. Dr. Rudd played a pivotal role in the paper using his extensive academic expertise to model the outcomes. The implications of this paper are vast, ranging from local waste management strategies to global climate goals. The synergy between #Bitcoin mining and landfill gas can accelerate methane emissions capture and landfill gas capture infrastructure. READ AND SHARE THE PAPER HERE: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.… Given the highly potent nature of methane emissions as a greenhouse gas, the opportunity to utilize mining to mitigate methane in an economically viable way cannot be ignored. While the study provides a compelling blueprint for the future, the researchers caution that success hinges on overcoming regulatory, technological, and financial challenges. To reap the benefits, both #Bitcoin miners and landfill operators need to navigate volatile cryptocurrency markets, fluctuating electricity prices, and varying environmental regulations. Still, this integration of technology and sustainability marks a bold step toward a greener future. If adopted widely, #Bitcoin miners could turn methane into digital gold—literally—and help curb one of the most potent climate-warming gasses on Earth.

There is no natural gas flare on this Saskatchewan oil well. Instead, a bunch of engines turn associated gas into #bitcoin
