I won't be surprised if mining is never able to replace super high heat appliances, like ovens or stove tops.

There's a lot of room, though, for adoption of water heaters, space heaters, heated floors, saunas, hot tubs, etc.

This definitely caught my eye because of your comment about heatpunkery the other day. My wife is always running this little space heater. It'd be great if that was stacking sats.

Make it so.

I've got an Avalon Nano 3s that I move around like a space heater. Next winter I'm planning to finally get a HeatBit.

1 watt will always equal 3.41214 btu/hr. God wrote it in the laws of physics. It will always be a worse deal to not mine bitcoin with any heating needs supplied by electricity.

But yeah, with that gas stuff, you just have to be an irrational ideologue like myself.

I look forward to mining bitcoin while brewing my coffee

Yes!

It can't be used there, unless you design chips that are able to sustain 150-200ºC or something like that.

Right, that's the source of my skepticism but I don't know how feasible designing high-temp chips is.
