William Shatner Backs Bitcoin Mining

William Shatner backs bitcoin mining
Could southern Illinois be the final frontier for bitcoin miners? Actor William Shatner thinks so, and is recruiting new tenants at a solar-powered mining facility in the area. A recent study estimated that mining Bitcoin consumes as much electricity as the Republic of Ireland.
Bitcoin is a digital currency created and exchanged independent of banks or governments. Actually validating bitcoin transactions requires huge amounts of energy in a process known as "mining."
Shatner is the spokesman for the alternative energy developer Solar Alliance. The Canadian firm recently acquired an abandoned warehouse in Murphysboro, Illinois where it will build a 3-megawatt solar farm. The renewable energy company will then rent out space to cryptocurrency miners once the facility becomes operational.
Shatner says the vacant 165,000-square-foot factory will be fashioned with a huge array of solar panels. Those panels will power the digital mining operations.
