idling
With how much power proof of work takes it's more like putting a brick on the gas pedal in park

The value of mining is in permanent recording of people's current heroin transactions. The bitcoin you get is the reward for the service.
With how saturated the mining community is, you have to buy a Bugatti, put a brick on the gas pedal, all while sitting in neutral gear, and leave it running for 24/7.
Not just one Bugatti. Probably at least 100 Bugattis.
Hey, I saw Ferris' day off, I remember how it ended.
What's worse, is you don't even get there on you get a small chance to get a stock-like transaction that could be worth some heroin or notging at all
Yeah but you could actually do useful things with the power from an idling car.
If you're doing something with the output of the engine then it's not idling, strictly speaking.
You could do useful things with the power used to generate Bitcoin too.
Generally, however, it is not easily converted to heroin
Use a computer to work -> get paid -> buy heroin
apt 😂

Hm. I guess I have to get out the 'ol hose and canister again.
Bitcoin=Snitchcoin
Monero won't broadcast every exchange's handler's details: IP address, ID, time & Date, Amount, Target, Totals, etc.
Just use coinjoin over Tor
Or swap for Monero over Bisq (TOR market). Whatever. Bitcoin is Snitchcoin. Everything is broadcast enough you cannot avoid it. Even your methods aren't enough.
