Meanwhile, #66 is chilling out and waiting for someone to find it, or maybe it will be found so quickly just like the other two in rapid succession.

Someone is really throwing good hardware at this challenge.

this is totaly out of the blue btw but i agree with defending PoW. People are trying to use renewable enrgey so that they can earn more for not paying/paying as much for electricity

Actually you just gave me a idea haha. What if people plugged their GPUs into a renewable energy source while cracking the keys so that they save on electricity fees?

BTC being at $23,000 currently, the rewards gained recently were around $10K or two each, but I wonder how much electricity they had to pay to achieve this? Nevermind the initial hardware investment as it's a 1 time thing.
