Think Bitcoin mining destroys the planet? Time to reconsider.

Pop quiz: what percentage of crypto mining actually runs on clean energy these days? The answer might surprise you—over half the mining operations globally now tap into renewable sources. Solar, wind, hydroelectric—the narrative around mining being an environmental disaster doesn't hold up when you look at the numbers.

Yes, mining is energy-intensive. But the industry is actively shifting its energy mix, not staying static. More miners are relocating to regions with abundant hydro or geothermal power. Corporate miners are hitting net-zero commitments. The conversation has evolved from "mining is bad" to "how do we make mining greener"—and that's actually happening in real time.
