So does this mean environmentalist groups will be cheering this move as "good for the planet" while simultaniously ignoring the enormous carbon/plastic pollution China makes?
Chia plotters/farmers to be more specific. The farming uses up massive ammounts of harddrive space, the plotting burns through SSDs to prepare the farms
BASED CHINA!
This will mean:
- less centralization of crypto mining in China
- less pollution from Chinese power used for mining
- possibly better GPU prices
- China dislikes it so other countries who ban/restrict it will be seen as siding with China
Everyone is happy! Crypto supporters, environmentally concerned people, consooomers and gaymers
Except the people who want it gone, ironically
BASED. CHINA.
Did I say I agree? For the people that do China banning crypto is good
Also politics aside China isn't especially environmentally friendly in terms of, well, anything. Idk about you but I don't think sulphuric acid in the air is very good for anyone or anything.
