I read about Adsorption cooling, which is a process whereby heat Is used to generate cold air, seems that the machinery needed to do this process is In development stages, With only few big machines out so far. Could this in the future be used in mining facilities, where miners will be stacked in Isle with Adsorption cooling machines between the isle, using the one miner's hot outlet air, and transforming it into cool air for the next's intake.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

thank you for the info. very good system. maybe possible to scale down the system to have a DIY cheap system.
I live in Thailand.
I am also looking for a solution to use the heat produced by the crypto mining and at the same time reduce the temperature of the air (crazy starting ideas (not always good): sauna, heat the water for showers, use heat for doing some foods (yoghourt, smoked meat, etc), use heat to accelerate the growth of some vegetables, find some bacteria that needs heat to do some useful job).

other ideas are welcome.

Wow, those are some great ideas, I am very keen to look into some of them. As for the Adsorption system- for now I don't think, it's a viable idea, but I think it would be something to look out for in the future.
