Satoshi’s Bitcoin Mining Costs Were Astonishingly Low, Cardano Co-Founder Reveals

The crypto world just got a reality check—turns out Satoshi Nakamoto mined Bitcoin for pennies on the dollar. Cardano’s co-founder spilled the beans, revealing how laughably low early mining costs were compared to today’s energy-guzzling rigs.

Back then? A few cents per coin. Now? Try explaining those power bills to your accountant.

Funny how the ‘decentralized revolution’ started with one anonymous genius and a laptop—while today’s miners need industrial-scale ops just to stay competitive. Maybe Satoshi saw this coming… or just really loved cheap electricity.

Bonus jab: Wall Street still can’t decide if crypto’s a hedge or a hazard—but they’ll happily charge you fees either way.
