I slightly dislike(I know, I can be petty) those Twitter people who seems to think that Bitcoin is the answer to literally whatever news-trending problem there is. But "wasted" renewable energy is one good use-case of Bitcoin mining. They contribute to the network, and at the same time they get value in exchange for the supposedly wasted energy. Win-win!
They're trying to hype bitcoin, it's the fault of those ultra fanatics.of bitcoin that exaggerated it's uses and it's purpose to the point that it become the truth/norm for the many. And those Twitter people are all shills, they have somethinng to gain when the price goes up so they use the platform of Twitter to shill for bitcoin.
But have you seen Elon Musk hype Dogecoin?
I don't think it's exaggeration, well you can look it that way, however, in the first 5 years of bitcoin there was no hype but pure attack on it with massive FUD and yet it still stand today. Everyone here is to gain something, whether you like it or not. Youtube, Twitter shills and any other social media, nothing bad about in my opinion, at the end of the day, it's about you, whether you are going to be swayed by this people or not.
Regarding Quebec enormous supply of electricity, then why not? But saying that it is Canada's big hope, I disagree with Saylor. It could be a big help to bitcoin though as there will be power shift as far as bitcoin mining goes.
