Creative Bitcoin mining/energy capture attunes an open, global monetary system with nature.

I can imagine a future of millions of little hyper-eficient, hyper-local mining operations - small dams, roaming ocean platforms, gas and petroleum deposits, your neighborhood solar farm, your backyard greenhouse's heater, etc etc etc.

They become part of the background of daily life. Just like you both ignore and appreciate any _given_ tree for it's contribution to the global oxygen supply. If you're feeling introspective, you can meditate on and appreciate the tree. If you're busy, you just drive by and don't think about it, while unconsciously benefitting from the fact that your next inhalation fills your blood with oxygen.

And these small sites represent **the totality** of Bitcoin mining.
When you stroll around this world you recognize that each tiny, efficient node is one shred of a massive, resilient system that maintains - "for free" - humanity's best money, for all people.

A billion little beautiful trees is better than one big ugly centralized tree.
