I mean honestly you're right. Nobody should be left on the Bitcoin side from an environmental or a cost standpoint. But I have no idea how long it's going to take to catch up.

I will say that at some point if there is an awakening, bitcoin's going to crash so f****** hard. And the first ones out are going to make all the money.
