If you have a blockchain powered Point of Sale mgmt system, that communicates with the pump, you can imagine to have a lightning channel opened with pump station brand X. Whenever this channel says they owe you money, you can pump gas until the lightning channel reaches 0. However, you cannot go below 0.
So you can load a ton of money once and then fill gas just scanning your pub key. Or you could ask to be refunded every time if you don't use everything. Comes down to how people manage their budget.

Most people keep talking about the money printing of CBs on the edges of most crypto discussion.
You can't say it's false, but at the same time it feels like a music you heard too many times.
Since US hasn't collapsed yet maybe we need to focus on something else positive more positive.

I would not shame someone publicly, but if I heard that someone claims a physical disability at a non labor intensive work, but tweets a lot, I would certainly want to speak with that person.
Context : apparently, tweeting (on the phone) is ok because done with 1 finger and slowly. His work didn't involve using a computer at all, apparently.

Most people freak out about range, want cars with same range as ICE, but actually only do 15 miles to go to work... And 10 more miles for groceries...
Then once every 3 years, they do a longer trip with the kids and at that point they really need the range.
I would argue that in that scenario you can plan your trip to include the charging stops, meaning: 1 during every meal, 1 for restroom stop, 1 for coffee in the morning, etc...
When you drive more than 5 hours, you should not be worrying about 1 to 2 hours lost :( That also means that the charging infrastructure must be good and cars must have modern high speed charging. That is only my opinion.
So in that department, Tesla is a clear winner for now. I've seen horrific videos from the canadians at "TheStraightPipes" about Canada/USA "regular" charging points :(

"The moment you accelerate and merge on the freeway for the first time, passing any car you want[...]"
That is a downside too, IMO :
There are tons of people that don't like driving and often own small cars by necessity. These cars are often low power ICEs.
What happens when they all get the EV version with 100+HP with instant torque? (the ID.3 is 204HP and a Nissan Leaf is 150-217HP!!!).
Well, like when Tesla became popular, suddenly everyone started crashing its car and blaming the "autonomous driving"....
The issue will be even worth in countries where the roundabout is widespread, as people will have the habit of 10/20/30+ years of driving next to people having slow starting cars, hence thinking they can cut the priority like usual, only to find the car entering 2x faster and now be in front of them instead of slowing starting.

Yeah, the thing is that people see ridiculous ranges like you have on a modern Tesla, then calculate how much time you need for a full charge from a regular wall plug, then realize it is an absurdly long time, doesn't fit overnight, then decide EVs are stupid and gas is better.
But they mostly forget than:
1. US has 110V and it is slow, but that is only a US problem, since EU for example has 230V.
2. You can always upgrade your electrical infrastructure or install a dedicated EV charger (level 1 vs level 2 charging). Around here, I've heard that a good charging box costs ~2000Euros. Then you must add installation costs. That is for level 2 charging (relatively fast, but not supercharge).
2. They probably don't drive more than 20-30 miles a day, so they don't need to charge 300+ miles per night.
3. Charging 20 miles per night on 230V-10A (2300W) in EU is, assuming ~25kWh/100mi : 5kWh -> 5000W * 1h -> 2300W * ~2h. A bit more than 2 hours. So overnight, you can charge from 80 to 120 miles easily.

2023-02-19 04:29:40

With some napkin math, you can conclude that with current mining difficulty and 5 cts/kWh, a miner needs the Bitcoin to sit at ~26000$ to offset the electricity cost of a S19 Pro Antminer post 2024 halving. Maybe new ASICs can offset some costs by being more efficient, but the miner still wants to earn money, so there is only one way for Bitcoin, otherwise the network will loose a lot of weight quickly.

1. For myself, the benefit to "cost" ratio went towards contactless cards since I left school (and the nearby ATM), but I fully agree that people should be able to choose, if they prefer cash.
2. I don't support the fact that small shops have big trx fees compared to their volume of transactions. In that sense, I am totally fine paying an extra to offset that, but it should not be that way.
3. I can tell you with 99.9% certainty that a card with very low fees (based on a blockchain backend) for small shops would destroy the whole market in Switzerland (so basically destroy SIX Payment Services on their own turf).
