The future of mining is not mining lol
AI data centers do tax the grid more than bitcoin mining which relies on excess or stranded energy

Mining is a tough business and I hope most of the public companies survive, i.e. Riot, Mara, Wulf, etc
Mining companies shutting down because of low or negative profits will be a terrible outcome.
Maybe instead of a bitcoin reserve, governments should provide subsidies or bailouts to large miners (I can't believe I proposed this)
update: Or the future of mining will be securitizing hashrate like BMN or Blockstream Mining Note (which is not available to USA investors)
what Rigly is doing is also a positive development (@evanbaer)

Mining may morph into something we cant think of now.....like part of heating systems....part of solar roof panels....or just part of the infrastructure of large electricity generators to suck up excess demand
