French Right-Wing Party Proposes Using Surplus Nuclear Power for Bitcoin Mining
ChainCatcher reports that, according to Cointelegraph, France's National Rally party (Rassemblement National) is preparing a bill proposing to use surplus electricity from nuclear power plants for Bitcoin mining.
The party's lawmaker Aurélien Lopez-Liguori has already drafted the relevant bill in the French parliament, planning to deploy mining infrastructure at nuclear power plants operated by EDF (Électricité de France). This proposal marks a significant shift in the party leader Marine Le Pen's stance on cryptocurrencies, as she previously advocated for a ban on cryptocurrencies in 2016.
