Oil and gas meets Bitcoin
Recently, 200 oil and gas executives and bitcoin miners reunited, drank beer, and talked shop on a residential back street in Houston, in a 150,000 square-foot warehouse preserving high-end vintage cars. One hot issue of debate is the use of "stranded" natural gas to power bitcoin mining rigs, which minimizes greenhouse gas emissions while also generating revenue for both the gas providers and the miners. It was also on the agenda to use political clout to educate legislators about bitcoin. @CNBC
