would it not be worthwhile, do you think, to leverage
*this* opportunity
The problem is that '*this* opportunity' absolutely screams pyramid scheme and should not be trusted without solid verification that the operators of this mining pool are making the investments they claim to be making.
genesi - a competing mining company which people seem to trust - have virtually zero transparency. if someone wants to help tracking down some bitcoin wallet addresses from youtube videos so that the blockchain analysis can be done that would be great.
the pool stats are available (remember bitclub actually started out as a simple mining pool.... that some bright spark went "huh why don't we drop a MLM on top of this?") - there's videos of some of the equipment in various data centres.
briefly, last thing today: the equipment in rekjavik they're sinking their *own* geothermal bore-holes and installing their *own* turbines, keeping it connected to iceland's national grid where geothermal electricity is extremely cheap, and, of course, cooling is literally free.
more on this tomorrow, gotta sleep.
