Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

Just thought I'd share here because it's relevant and personally a little exciting...

Not sure if anyone remembers but a few months ago I made a post about a business my friend works for that generates their own electricity (via gas and wind) and sells it to the grid. The problem comes at times when they sell to a grid at a loss when they have excess energy so I suggested they set up a mining operation. Long story short they got up a test bed with a 0.8MW operation and it seems to be going well; there's now plans to expand this to other sites nation wide to I THINK a 8MW total. Sitting down with my friend tomorrow for me to be brought in an have a possible role in all of this so I'm pretty excited. TOTAL change from my current line of work but definitely something I'd be passionate about.

So yeah, that's that

The extent to which the current "Bitcoin uses more electricity than Crustopia" sort of narrative has things so COMPLETELY out of phase with reality it will be a strange jolt for honest people when they realize how it enables energy creation even more than it uses energy.

It is a ripe market for businesses to make money guiding this revolution.  Wish I was not so lazy.

Good we are finally adding a 300kwatt solar array  in NJ to the 115  and 45 ones we have.  We had hoped it would be 350kwatts , but roof structure only allows 300 Kwatts.

8MW will be good sized for you.

I'll be thrown a little into the deep end here but I'll find out more about what the role entails tomorrow when I sit down with my friend. It will be an interesting thing to tackle regardless and a lot easier on my body than my current job; nothing may come from it but I'd be stupid to not at least listen and go for it if I'm given the opportunity

Hi guys. I see it's talking mining, I had stopped some years ago, but for Christmas I managed to buy a 3080FE, and a 3080Ti FE. I wanted a card to play videogames mainly, and didn't want to pay the crazy black market prices, I finally got them for MSRP. Still it's quite a sum of money, I also need to buy the rest of the PC (parts are ordered), so I think I will start mining again. I will probably convert into BTC on a regular basis, and treat that as DCA buys, where my cash goes to electricity and "paying back" the hardware. I'm closing myself to exchanges fiat onramps to be a bit more stealthy so doing it that way is "2 birds, 1 stone". For occasional "buy the dip" events I shall use a DEX.

Nice!  Shitcoins allow hobby miners such as myself to generate bitcoin with a video card, via the Nicehash service, by simply selling one's hash power and being paid in bitcoin.
One is not actually mining bitcoin, but for all intent and purposes, might as well be. Excellent way to DCA, imo.
Been doing it myself for several years with my now ancient, but reliable 1070's.
I'd venture to say the majority of video card miners point their hashes to a certain shitcoin not to be mentioned.


(hopefully, my post will not elicit a JJG batslap)

I wish i could find a decent card for MSRP instead of buying a whole PC (with that card) for a price of the card (retail).
This is seriously pissing me off.

I'm so glad I got my 3080 on release day

Just a random thought.

It will take almost 7 Months, 2 Weeks, 3 Days, 22 Hours, 6 Minutes and 39 Seconds to count until 21 million (231 days).
