“Bitcoin miners are unique because of how fast, transparent, and flexible their response can be to pricing fluctuations. 
Riot’s Whinstone mining farm in Texas is a perfect example of miners powering down during tight conditions in ERCOT. During winter storms in February 2022, the site powered down 99% of its operations to reduce load. This flexibility made headlines. 
Now imagine if ERCOT has visibility of every miner over 10 MW that’s connected to the transmission network. The price at which the machines breakeven would then become an integral aspect of wholesale power pricing because the bitcoin miners themselves can set the wholesale price.” – Blake King

“Taro enables bitcoin to serve as a protocol of value by allowing app developers to integrate assets alongside BTC in apps both on-chain and over Lightning. This expands the reach of Lightning Network as a whole, bringing more users to the network who will drive more volume and liquidity in bitcoin, and allowing people to easily transfer fiat for bitcoin in their apps. More network volume means more routing fees for node operators, who will see the benefits of a multi-asset Lightning Network without needing to support any additional assets.” – Ryan Gentry
A huge kudos to Lightning Labs and what they are building over there. This is an incredible development that will shake the system as this tech gets implemented. Follow Lightning labs and Ryan Gentry, the author of today’s piece, on Twitter to stay up on what they are building.
