There is country smaller than Cuba that is the second largest exporter of food in the world, it has manufacturing, apartment towers, schools, hospitals, theatres. banks, credit unions, daycares, trains, harbours, grocery stores, cafes, buses, radio and tv stations, movie industry, computer manufacturing, retirement homes, nail salons, hairdressers, oh, and its the largest exporter of flowers in history all lands.
And that country uses less electricity that bitcoin "mining"
@kevinrns Kevin, don’t keep me in suspense!
We have a winner, please return to the lobby to collect the cheese.*
*There is no cheese, this is not a contest, and please, no wagering.
