Btw, data-centers are an excellent come back to people that say “Bitcoin uses to much energy”. When i was at Google and the main data center I was at hit 1.21 Gigawatts(back to the future), they gave out little celebration swag that was solid copper saying 1.21gigawatts. That was in 2016 and only 3 buildings not even full yet. This data center has 7 buildings now. Each data center has there own huge substations as well, directly connected to the power plant. The amount of electricity Google uses across all of its data centers is astronomical.
