Let's expand that to be GOVERNMENT and scam:
I live in a USA state that has engaged WithOdyssey.com as a "help state businesses help our low income families with education". The dimensions of government 'intervetion' stupidity blows my fucking mind, and that's after benefiting from it.
So this group convinces state lawmakers to allocate money for low income families to receive $1000/kid for educational supplies, something most politicians will get behind cause the optics make them look good.
To keep those "greedy corporations" out only in-state vendors are allowed on the platform.
So families apply, get funding and get on the site to start ordering. Stuff looks expensive but we think "Well, it was free money". One of the things my wife ordered was "Colored cardstock and 2 reams". When we opened the box it was a bundle (75 sheets) of colorful cardstock and 2 reams of Amazon Basics copy paper.
I ask my wife, "Did you really order this?" Her jaw dropped as she was expecting something like a box of colored cardstock because the WithOdyssey price was $65 (English as a second language, not knowing what a ream was).
We quickly search the cardstock, $10 at Walmart, and the aB paper, $20 NON-bulk. So a 216% mark up to help local businesses. PLUS they got state sales tax on it.
I guess it's just adding liquidity. Nothing stops this train. Amiright @nprofile…3tqm?

I agree, and yet there's more to it. If we recognize that governments are debasing the monies then it is highly probable that they will mess with the on/off ramps, thereby making the MoE pretty darn important.

I think someone figured out how to copy anything you do on Nostr over to X. I saw it and said to myself, "I gotta do that." Then never did. I'll share if I find it.

Of course that's only talking about income taxes. Shall we bring in all the others, making it more like 50% of our working lives?

So grids like ERCOT are open or 'unregulated', meaning the spot price ($/MW) is the driving factor. This means the miners likely have break-even computations running for each miner type at the current BTC price and can adjust them on the fly.
A good scaling miner will be shutting off their most inefficient units first leaving the lowest J/TH for last. But when spot price spikes up they are "selling back" the electricity they pre-purchased, meaning they are not using it. IREN is so good at this that their price per bitcoin at one point was -$28k/BTC (yes, paid $28k for each Bitcoin mined).
This works on the reverse side, as price per MW drops to below $0, if they have a massive amount of miners, even inefficient ones, those can ramp up to absorb that negative priced power to mine.
Amazing grid balancing! I'd love to see it in action first hand.

Saved. Keep in mind that is with a Fiat unit of account. On a Bitcoin standard only high quality company stocks and bitcoin will appreciate in purchasing power.

Same. As all transitions, it'll be a bit rough & people resist top-down change. I remember being in El Salvador during theirs in 2000, a lot of grumbling. And I'm sure many people didn't grasp what to do and were kind of the bag holders (I didn't understand at the time either).
