some Chinese electricity company must surely realise soon that accepting and holding bitcoin would be a ridiculously successful strategy. Or is that banned?
EDIT: Since we are on the topic, albeit off-topic: it was on news sites recently that some New England electricity company is suing John Garza's GAWminers for a ~300'000 $ unpaid electricity bill.

That is Mississippi Power who is suing, the mining facility is in Purvis, MS. I believe Garza had/has some sort of telecom business up in the New England area.
