Kargai Posted March 30, 2018 #1 Posted March 30, 2018 We already saw a lot of news stating that mining Bitcoin is bad for environment, that it cost a lot in energy & co. And the US company Intel take it seriously enough to filled some patents about new tech to make things better. Their first one (filled in septembver last year) is a mining hardware accelerator who will reduce the amount of electricity that people need to mine. Intel is mostly focusing on ASICs miners but their system will be easily adapted to any type of mining device.

Because if it really work, that mean mining will be more profitable, and more profitable = more people will mine. And more people will mine will also mean a more active ecosystem.
