This will make miners of Bitcoin and other Proof-of-Work-based cryptocurrencies start adopting renewable sources of energy much faster, Wu reckons.

However, the article Wu shared as a source says that in the US, the ESG metrics bill has not received the support from Republicans yet. The bill will now be moved on for the Senate to consider.
Due to China cracking down on Bitcoin mining companies and depriving them of energy sources, the Bitcoin hashrate has dropped more than 25 percent, Wu adds.
Should this carry on, the journalist writes, the whole Bitcoin network might fall below 100E soon.
