Nice! At least all that flare gas burning isn't for nothing. Does this mean Bitcoin becomes the new petro-dollar?
That would be interesting. Stick a bunch of gas powered generators on top and mine with the generated power.
If generating electricity this way is profitable for mining, it stands to reason that it would be even more profitable to use the generated electricity for pretty much anything else. Mining is barely profitable even with cheapest power and requires huge investments and complicated maintenance.
