Irish Farmers Use Cows’ Help To Mine Bitcoin

Cointelegraph reveals an interesting fact. Irish farmers are turning cow poop into digital gold. Check out the latest reports about this.

Tom Campbell, an Irish dairy farmer who runs a farm in County Armagh, is using excess energy from his farm to mine Bitcoin.

It’s been revealed the fact that an Irish dairy farmer has found an unusual way to make use of the excess energy produced on his farm — by turning to Bitcoin mining.

“Tom Campbell, who runs a farm in County Armagh, Northern Ireland, produces renewable energy using a method called anaerobic digestion. This involves breaking down biodegradable material to a point where it creates methane gas, which can be used to produce electricity.”

Accoridng to the latest reports, it seems that Morgan Creek Capital CIO Mark Yusko says that a US government ban on Bitcoin (BTC) would not stop the king crypto in its tracks.

In a new interview with Paul Barron, the crypto veteran explained the fact that people are wrong when they suggest the government could ban Bitcoin.

He said the fact that US Bitcoin holders are just a small portion of global BTC holders and the king crypto would continue to thrive if the federal government prohibits it.

“People forget 80% of Bitcoin is held outside the United States. Americans only own 20% of it. And if Americans owned zero of it, it would still function every single day. If there were no nodes in the United States. If they made it illegal to run a node. If they made it illegal to move your money in and out through fiat on ramps and off ramps, Bitcoin wouldn’t care.”

Yusko also addressed the fact that Bitcoin is popular in a country like Nigeria because its native currency is losing value against gold and BTC.
