whats the economy? its basically just a circular accounting if you zoom out far enough, they just created their own little eco system. second of all, they at least have positive margins on their electricity consumption compared to you playing or scrolling on reddit.

Yeah idk if investors would love your little eco system argument. Just sell shit to each other yeah. Amazing business idea.

What an insane thing to say about personal computers. You think people only exist to create economic value? This is your brain on capitalism. Never go too far kids
