El Salvador gets a lot of attention around mining with Geothermal energy, Iceland ha
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>El Salvador gets attention as if it is the newest thing ever and that mining with geothermal energy has never been done before. Why? Iceland has been using geothermal energy to mine cryptocurrencies since 2018, That's about 3-4 years ago. </p> <p>And yes I know El Salvador is doing something about adoption of cryptocurrency (legal tender and stuff), that's good, but to me it's about why we think it's so special which has already been done 3-4 years ago. The point of this post is that the technology behind geothermal energy is NOT new and not that a private company does it in Iceland and the state of El Salvador does it. It is about the technology.</p> <p><strong>Note: I love El Salvador and this is not an anti post or anything. I was just wondering why there is so much interest suddenly playing with geothermal energy mining.</strong></p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/BerthjeTTV"> /u/BerthjeTTV </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/q1og8q/el_salvador_gets_a_lot_of_attention_around_mining/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/q1og8q/el_salvador_gets_a_lot_of_attention_around_mining/">[comments]</a></span>Kind Regards R
