Elon Musk says he met with bitcoin miners to discuss energy usage
NY Post
Tesla CEO Elon Musk is at it again, tweeting about bitcoin and helping give the cryptocurrency a temporary boost.
The price of bitcoin rose nearly $2,000 per coin Monday afternoon immediately after Musk tweeted, “Spoke with North American Bitcoin miners. They committed to publish current & planned renewable usage & to ask miners WW to do so. Potentially promising.” Musk has previously raised concerns about the energy usage of bitcoin mining and its impact on the environment, even citing it as a reason that Tesla stopped accepting bitcoin as payment for its cars.More Related News
