Is there a legitimate motive for outright destroying mining units. Rather than auctioning or selling them. Aside from politics?
People in my country are literally stealing electricity in order to mine cryptocurrencies.
I guess that's why some governments are hostile towards cryptocurrency mining and the mining hardware.
It's better to destroy that mining hardware,instead of selling it to people,that might start stealing electricity again and mine crypto.This is the way of thinking of all the government clerks and officials.
Destroying mining equipment isn't a big deal.I hope that the equipment gets recycled,instead of being sent to the trash and contributing to environment pollution.After all,everybody wants crypto mining to be clean and safe.
if the Gov. confiscate and sell the machines,
the Gov. can confiscate and sell again...
and again, and again...
making $10million usd. selling confiscated machines to people that
with all that money, can buy Covid-19 vaccines, build public schools, build roads, give food to homeless, etc...
sooner or later people will stop stealing electricity, because they cannot afford to buy machines again, and again, and again...
.....
some govs. are brain dead...
Elephant Ivory Horns from Malaysia, Vietnam, Africa, etc...
the Gov. confiscate and destroy the elephant ivory horns,
people will hunt and kill again...
because the market price and demand has inncreased...
IF the gov. sells very cheap the confiscated ivory horns, lets say $1usd.
they will destroy the market value, and stop the killing of elephants.
No body will kill an Elephant for $1usd. and risk go to jail.
govs. are brain dead... they all steal elections..
