🗣 Bitcoin: Miners attacked by the United States. Abuse of power !

✔️Bitcoin stands at the crossroads between technological innovation and government regulation. Recently, a new controversy erupted, placing BTC miners at the center of a battle with the US government.

👉The controversial investigation

✔️At the heart of the controversy is a decision by the U.S. Department of Energy to initiate a mandatory investigation into bitcoin miners. This initiative, described by some as an “abuse of power”. It aims to collect data on energy consumption linked to crypto mining.
✔️According to the Energy Information Administration, this move follows alarming findings: bitcoin mining could represent up to 2.3% of total electricity consumption in the United States in 2023.
✔️The government justifies its action by the need to obtain precise information on the environmental impact of this industry.
✔️However, voices are being raised within the mining community and certain industrial groups to denounce excessive and politically motivated interference. This aims to hinder the development of the bitcoin sector under the cover of ecological concerns.
