The New York State Assembly is considering a vote on A.7389C / S. 6486C, a bill that would create a moratorium on proof-of-work mining operations unless 100% of their energy comes from renewable sources. If this bill becomes law, New York will be forfeiting the unique opportunities Bitcoin mining provides for economic expansion and the proliferation of renewable energy. This could set a precedent for states across the country to make the same mistake.
If against the interests of New Yorkers, the Assembly passes the bill, it still needs to pass in the State Senate. That means you’ve got time to make your voice heard. If you’re from New York or live there now, use the one-click tool to email your elected officials that you OPPOSE mining moratorium.
