OT: Do you think Mississippi will be the last state to do something like this?

Where do the raw materials come from and what do they do with the waste products of this mining.
If clean spark finds a power company/station with extra unused power in Mississippi I’m sure they’ll investigate it.
But why would Mississippi say no?
I can name a few reasons people might say no to this but they aren’t Mississippi reasons.
Also probably won’t find a ton of extra power here and that’s probably not a “Mississippi” reason either
I find it hilariously hypocritical of people that want to be proactive about climate change and want to do things to “stop” climate change but love everything about cryptocurrencies like bitcoin. The amount of resources like electricity required to mine bitcoin is quite staggering.
I know someone in Texas that mines bitcoin. He built a small building with rows of computers very similar to what this company is doing but on a much smaller scale. It has four AC units that run constantly to keep it cool.

It’s a bunch of computers doing millions of computations that eventually result in making a part of bitcoin.
