This is the concept of "heat punks," where Bitcoin miners harness their rigs to both warm their living spaces and earn cryptocurrency rewards.
The article dives into the economics of this clever dual-purpose approach, analyzing the upfront investment costs and the unexpected efficiencies that make it a practical option.
By tapping into mining rewards, these innovators might transform heating from a typical household expense into a beneficial byproduct of their Bitcoin mining efforts.
