Just made a case for relocating your mining rig to an actual mine. The evidence is pretty solid guys.

The next time you and your hipster friends explore a decommissioned mineshaft in the boonies you might find a community of bitcoin miners at the bottom.

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.

That natural underground cooling isn't going to work so well when you blasting tens of thousands of BTU's of heat into the surrounding air.  Just another engineering project to solve that problem though!

My hipster friends and I were just about to explore a mine. We'll keep our eyes peeled!
