It is possible to go green but this costs a lot of money and therefore miners will be losers, for miners to switch to clean energy the price of bitcoin should go up to $100-200 thousand and therefore miners will be winners in the event of switching to clean energy.
If this happens, everyone will come out with winners, we will get clean energy for Bitcoin, the fossil fuel problem will be eliminated, and the miners will come out with profits as a result of the high price of Bitcoin.
But the question is, is this really possible??

Is this suppose to be something positive to the btc community! is this the reason why btc price has risen so much within 24hrs, i really don't trust this Elon with this sudden change of thought, or rather an impossible request, how does he expect 50% of miners to be green just like that, does he know how it will cost to run green energy to mine, it is better he stays away and not invest instead of coming to make rules and regulations for miners, nobody force him to invest if he thinks btc not healthy enough.

Elon.

Who cares what he wants? He came to Bitcoin as an investor, now he wants to tell everyone in the community what Bitcoin should be? Haha. Bitcoin was chugging along before him, it will continue to chug along after him. Bitcoin doesn’t need him, but he needs Bitcoin.

do miners care about this? I don't think anyone cares. without investment from him the bitcoin market is already quite strong. and there are many other institutions that are gearing up for bitcoin adoption. So without Elon and Tesla, the market will keep going up. if you look at some of his tweets, he seems like a person who is not opinionated. His words change all the time, so don't care anymore what he says.

Just for fun, one square kilometer will be able to deliver 170MW, but unfortunately, you have to calculate that only for the sunny hours, pushing it slightly above the average so you get around 100Gwh a year, so we would need around 1300 km2 of panels to power the bitcoin network at current numbers, it might sound much but that's actually only 10% of the surface of New York's entire metropolitan area.

The surface won't be the problem, the problem is storing enough energy to feed the miners when there is no light, and we're talking about something that needs to deliver that much power at night, batteries won't be able to do it.


The price of the coin doesn't matter.
If a global world rule is that they should only use green energy and that is priced at 20cents/kwh a lot of the miners will simply drop out of the race but a few will continue, those that have managed to get cheaper and more efficient gear and lower maintenance and labor costs.
This is not like digging for oil.

only fools believe Elon is satoshi...

Craig openly claims he is a satoshi but Elon never claims to be like Craig. Satoshi is a mystery, not to be confused with these two 'drama players'

If Tesla is worried about the environment, aren't there bigger issues more directly related to their business that they should be talking about other than the power consumption of bitcoin... like the environmental harm of lithium ion batteries... and the fact that once used, they will sit somewhere in a landfill indefinitely after coming out of Teslas they were made for?

Or what about the concern with where the electrical power to drive the Tesla is coming from... is the power the world uses to charge those cars all that green these days?

I can't really catch up with Elon Musk anymore. He started changing his mind very often. He is just continuing to toy with the market. It has been not much time since he said that he stopped the payments with BTC because of fossil fuel usage in Bitcoin mining.

Of course he will follow the trend and will never start making decision once it's still not fine,  he's a brilliant manipulator so expect after the green it will rocketed and don't expect as well it will long last after that because you know what will happen next. Actually he's a very tricky man so keep your eyes open when he get in and start making post or tweets, wherein just to prevent losses if you're interested as well to follow him what's he's trying to do in the space. . Be aware!

Elon will go back to buying BTC and then we will see how erratic Elon's changes are.
After witnessing Elon all this time with the crypto market, I understand why so many people call him crazy
