Using resources to build a solar panel that only generates electricity to feed into a bitcoin mine that basically turns that solar energy straight back into hea

Using resources to build a solar panel that only generates electricity to feed into a bitcoin mine that basically turns that solar energy straight back into heat is a net energy negative. The only conceivable benefit is increased economies of scale for the production of solar panels.
I am talking about generating electricity and NOT using it for mining.
