Sazmining is building a platform for green, even carbon negative, bitcoin mining, said founder William Szamosszegi.Looking at the big picture, the environmental effects of Bitcoin are considerable, partly because bitcoins are made using electricity partially generated by gas and coal-fired power plants. However, replacing the energy source, and working also with methane could turn the situation upside down, believes Szamosszegi."More and more miners are starting to realize that you can actually leverage Bitcoin mining as a tool to clean up the methane problem. And it just economically make sense," Szamosszegi said.Learn more about:The concept of carbon negative bitcoin mining? Is bitcoin mining bad for the environment?Crowdfunding at Start Engine"We think that the future is a green future, in terms of where money is going to go, and where development is going to go.
