Bitcoin Burglers

Super computers worth almost 2 million were nicked up in Iceland according to Associated Press. Iceland is one of the mining hotspots with renewable energy and genius cooling systems using the environments cooling.

Police will use electricity usage spikes to try and locate the burglers as they believe these will be used, not sold to mine Bitcoin, ether, maybe also post on Steemit... In any case, these make a top end Alienware machine look like a bargain!

"Governor Mark Carney launched a withering attack on cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin and urged regulators around the world to monitor them in the same way as other financial assets." (this is Mark worried about the uncontrolled national debt and how blockchain could threaten tax collection and other control systems on abilities to make money) As of yet the UK has way better policies than say the US regarding crypto and taxes.

All of this is traceable so I assume police will recover these stolen computer powerhouse machines. This reminds us of the levels of power and cooling needed for bitcoin operations.
