The strategic move away from Bitcoin mining was actually not a bad decision in the end... If they were still mining after the Halving, they would have had to close their doors. We will see a lot of
companies going under in the west, once the Bitcoin rewards are halved... and mining will get more centralized in countries where the electricity are being subsidized. { China } It is just unfortunate,
but a natural reaction, when you have surplus cheap energy. If the western governments want to get in on this action, they will have to find ways to subsidize Bitcoin mining and offer them cheaper
electricity. { Tesla and big companies in other countries gets cheaper electricity / rates as a incentive for these countries to operate in their areas.. Why not Bitcoin? } They score TAX income and it
increase job opportunities.
