Dutch farm uses Bitcoin mining to grow tulips and save on energy costs


Amsterdam (AFP) – An unlikely marriage between tulips and Bitcoin sees a huge flower farming greenhouse in The Netherlands heated by whirring servers, themselves powered by solar panels. This approach to circular energy usage helps both businesses save on huge energy costs. “Some growers have decided, because of the increase in gas prices, to stop growing this year” explains Danielle Koning, a flower farmer whose facilities now house six Bitcoin miners.
