The board has released yet another report on mining operations' energy consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> As a result, the BTC Mining board of directors revealed that the utilization of renewable energy grew in the third quarter, reaching 57.7%. Those figures are higher than the Tesla CEO's June target.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, studies show that Bitcoin mining uses 57 percent renewable energy, which should be enough for Musk to accept Bitcoin payments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>BTC supporters urged Elon Musk to reconsider his assertions against BTC transactions on Twitter, and data from the Bitcoin mining board quoted by others reveals that mining activities use more than 50% clean energy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Confirmed.<br>Your movement&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/elonmusk?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@ElonMusk<span class=\"wpil-link-icon\" title=\"Link goes to external site.\" style=\"margin: 0 0 0 5px;\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"height:16px; width:16px; fill:#000000; stroke:#000000; display:inline-block;\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:svg=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><use href=\"#wpil-svg-outbound-7-icon-path\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/1c0TtKg1Ow\">pic.twitter.com\/1c0TtKg1Ow<span class=\"wpil-link-icon\" title=\"Link goes to external site.\" style=\"margin: 0 0 0 5px;\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"height:16px; width:16px; fill:#000000; stroke:#000000; display:inline-block;\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:svg=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><use href=\"#wpil-svg-outbound-7-icon-path\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/p><p>\u2013 Bitcoin archive (@BTC_Archive)&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BTC_Archive\/status\/1466088836136681482?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 1, 2021<span class=\"wpil-link-icon\" title=\"Link goes to external site.\" style=\"margin: 0 0 0 5px;\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" style=\"height:16px; width:16px; fill:#000000; stroke:#000000; display:inline-block;\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" xmlns:svg=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><use href=\"#wpil-svg-outbound-7-icon-path\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span><\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Others questioned the accuracy of the panel's numbers, citing a press release that stated that 33% of the global Bitcoin network participated in the survey, but another user stated that there is no way to acquire more data using paper questionnaires. Rather, energy audits should be carried out to identify the percentage of energy that is clean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tesla's decision to resume Bitcoin transactions is unquestionably positive for the market. The price of Bitcoin surged when the maker initially implemented crypto payments. Despite two reports from the Bitcoin Mining Council indicating that mining is over 50% clean energy, Elon Musk has neglected to address the issue.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin mining is reaching 57% renewable energy , which is why so many crypto users are pushing Tesla to keep paying in BTC Crypto users urge Tesla to continue accepting BTC payments According to recent reports, bitcoin mining is now using 57 percent green energy, which is why so many crypto users are urging Tesla [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":29,"featured_media":14706,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[83],"tags":[5371,5779,5791],"class_list":["post-14689","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bitcoin-news","tag-bitcoin-2","tag-mining-2","tag-tesla-2"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Crypto-users-urge-Tesla-to-continue-accepting-BTC-payments-1.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14689","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/29"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14689"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14689\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14706"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14689"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14689"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/coinscreed.com\/staging\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14689"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
