Can Bitcoin Mining Finally Go Green? Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Weighs In

With surging interest rates in response to high dollar inflation, the adoption of Bitcoin (BTC) in the United States has witnessed a significant upswing in recent months. Institutional investors have been increasingly drawn to incorporate Bitcoin into their balance sheets, largely evident in the recent ETF frenzy.

As a result, political analysts speculate that the standing of the presidential candidates in the Bitcoin market will play a substantial role in determining next year’s winner.

Robert Kennedy’s Perspective

Environmental lawyers and politicians alike argue that adopting Bitcoin as legal tender could effectively aid in reducing American dollar inflation. Already, the Democratic presidential candidate has taken the initiative of acquiring Bitcoins for his children, foreseeing promising future returns.

Robert Kennedy, in his latest statement on Bitcoin, has emphasized that its environmental impact should not overshadow the broader concept of financial freedom. He contends that Bitcoin, despite some criticism, is not as detrimental to the environment as portrayed.

Renewable Energy & BTC Mining

A noteworthy comment from Robert Kennedy was directed at Daniel Feldman, director at Sangha Systems, who believes that renewable energy and Bitcoin mining industries share a symbiotic relationship. Feldman asserts that Bitcoin mining serves as a solution to improve the electric grid and decrease dependence on fossil fuels. He passionately argues that Bitcoin and its mining process are tailor-made for the current environmental concerns.

“Contrary to popular media/belief, Bitcoin mining is a solution to improve the electric grid and lessen reliance on fossil fuels. Bitcoin and Bitcoin mining are built for this moment,” Feldman argued. 

What is the SEC’s Stance?

The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has consistently classified Bitcoin as a commodity similar to precious metals. Despite this categorization, the agency is yet to approve any ETF product, hindering institutional investors from leveraging its potential.
