Negative prices on power i.e. curtailment, is the perfect use case for Bitcoin mining.

Obviously there needs to be some amount of battery storage of energy too, but once the storage capacity meets the needs of the local grid, and the batteries are full... what do you do with the excess power?

May as well mine Bitcoin with it and make some profit on that excess energy.

Energy buyer of first and last resort.

Please stop, bitcoin is a waste of electricity, it has no economic value. Its cancerous. Just make hydrogen or some other storable material.

I'm sorry you don't understand the value of Bitcoin.

Your ignorant hate for something you haven't taken the time to understand is cancerous.

So no, I won't stop.
