The Mining economics were not made completely clear in this video
The key important thing to understand is that Mining is an energy 'exchange' rate into BTC:
Mining = Buy Electricity [Computer ON] Sell Bitcoin
Curtailment = Sell Electricity [Computer OFF] Buy Bitcoin
The particular ASIC's (computers) in the video were earning at about $0.07 of Bitcoin per kWh
IF the price on the grid goes higher lets say 10cent, why consume to mine 7cent if you can sell at 10cent?
Bitcoin Mining doesn't 'waste' energy — it seeks energy which is wasted.
Key Takeaway: Bitcoin Mining is strictly an 'economic' consumer of power, which defines a price they are willing to sell the power back at all times.
+ Supply Revenue
+ Demand Response
+ Grid Stability
Fally Ipupa all the way
