Just in (Dec 25, 2025): Russian President Vladimir Putin claims ongoing US-Russia talks include joint management of the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant – Europe's biggest nuke facility (6 reactors, ~6GW capacity) – and the US is pushing to use its massive, cheap nuclear power for cryptocurrency mining! 💥
Key details from Putin's remarks:
Discussions bypass Ukraine entirely (plant occupied by Russia since 2022).
US interested in mining ops + supplying some power back to Ukraine.
Zaporizhzhia has huge excess energy – perfect for power-hungry BTC/ crypto farms (stable, baseload nuclear = mining dream fuel).
This ties into broader trends: Nuclear energy is booming for crypto mining worldwide (reliable, low-cost power). Russia just legalized mining in 2024, ranking #2 globally in hashrate.
Is this real deal-making under Trump-era negotiations? Propaganda play? Or signal of superpowers racing to control energy-intensive crypto future? 👀
Bullish for BTC long-term if nuclear-crypto fusion accelerates? Or too risky with geopolitics?
What’s your take – game-changer for mining hashrate or just hot air?
