BTC mining banned in NY town!

Fine, you backwater, slack-jawed yokels. Just sit there pompously in your poverty with your unsold electricity. Nobody cares about your town, and it will probably be bulldozed down in a few years to make way for landfill.

Awwww New York with their bit licence and now this! Plattsburg is already a shithole_country though maybe not quite as bad as Schenectady and I usually stop there for a bite to eat or to use the facilities when taking the ferry over lake Champlain but now that I see they are hostile to Bitcoin miners, I am going to hodl it until I get into Vermont. In fact, I might only use their roads to get through New York and not stop at all! Bastards.

Mining wasn't banned in Plattsburgh. They will not allow new mining operations to use the subsidized local utility. Maybe try getting a slight understanding of a topic before freaking out.

Did you not see the double entendre - hodl it? My post was intended as humour and I can't believe you got merit for berating me over it. As an aside, I love Stewart's Shops! I hope that communistic city council doesn't ~~ban~~ place a moratorium on new flavours of ice cream or place statutory limits on the number of scoops per cone. Bastards!
