It's a smart idea. Who is going to have sympathy for crypto miners? As a citizen, would you rather a Watt of power go to driving an industrial facility, heating a home, or making a Shibacoin? For most it's a very easy calculus.
Either they pay up, in which case there's a new revenue stream, or they don't, in which case energy prices will go down due to the lowering of demand. A win for the general public and an easy sell. Who said policy was boring?
Wonder how fast it will be copied elsewhere.

Just give it power and internet access, they provide compute loads. Now that I have solar panels, a hybrid heat pump and currently excess electricity, this is interesting to warm up a vat of tap water, for example. Any guides on DIYing such a combo?
