Do you have a reputable source on that?

  I was at a large bitcoin mining farm today and talked to them about that. Their substation feeds the local community and they paid for upgrades to it so that the local community could have a more reliable source of power. Their funds also go towards maintaining all the lines that feed the community too. They employ about a dozen people from the area. We ate lunch at a local restaurant. Bought groceries from the local grocery store. Staying in a local airbnb. Does this count as reputable?

    Since it's a personal anecdote from a biased source, I'd say it's probably not reputable.

      I this case, I find that response weird because I'm being factual about spending money in a local community that surrounds a large bitcoin mining operation. The bar for proof here is pretty low, it isn't like I am claiming to prove that the MRNA vaccine works or not. Do you need to see my receipts for purchases at the local stores? My airbnb account?
