Hilarious watching conservatives suddenly become everything they despise. This conservative lady was mad they didn’t do An ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STUDY 🤯

Notice that they never build in affluent communities.

The noise levels due to bitcoin mines, datacenters, power plants, and other industrial facilities are 100% forecast-able. Professional engineers are sworn to uphold the public health, safety, and welfare. So there's no excuse for not doing a noise impact study on a facility this large and this close to homes.

If Ted Cruz wants it, it’s probably a bad idea.

I see the leopard is eating people's faces. This is what happens when you vote for the Leopard eating People's Faces party.

blame greg abbott and ted cruz

This is what they voted for.

But did these people also vote for the lack of gov regulation that allowed this?

This isn’t a bitcoin problem, this is a lack of respect for human life problem. Why aren’t the machines enclosed in large insulated structures like data centres are? Then they can regulate the temperature while using less energy than they currently are, while being much quieter and more resilient to environmental damage.

I feel bad for these people. But Granbury is as conservative as you can get and the residents need to realize that when you vote for people like Ted Cruz and Greg Abbott, this is the kind of thing that will happen.

When the Karens start to care.. should be the title

I live next door to a hospital in a big city and know how irritating the noise can be from ambulances day and night. Can only imagine how frustrating it would be to live with CONSTANT noise day and night.

Sorry but even if there was zero noise issue, they are literally using both a power grid that clearly isn’t stable or well designed (seen from the deaths during the Texas deep freeze that occurred). However the fact this was allowed to be installed and run off anything but sustainable and green energy, is truly deplorable!

It’s horrible that these people are going through this. However, by supporting a party that is concerned more about protecting corporations, deregulating industries & not holding corporations accountable for the damages that they cause, more & more people will suffer. Remember, the Supreme Court declared that corporations are people so money from corporations like this one will continue to filter to the GOP to protect their profits & bottom line.

THe physiological and psychological effects of noise on humans and animals is poorly understood...by those not experiencing it.

Just cut the fiber optic lines. Bitcoin mining needs good internet 🤫

certainly the local government knew . and got kickbacks to let it get construction that close to populations

Didn't have Oath Keepers demanding government regulations on my bingo card.

So maybe California regulations are not just liberals needlessly complaining. But a state who has been dealing with manufacturing and corporate physical infrastructure and its fallout for decades.

Thank you Abbot and Cruz

This is a very interesting report. Bitcoin noise will damage your eardrums, and the question: Did the Bitcoin noise in the state of Texas impact the Bitcoin market?

Noise complaints? Oohh wait it Texas.

Seems like switching to emersion cooling would be the answer. Idk why they thought a loud air cooling system would be ok near a residential area in the first place.

Billionaires out of the past 10 years. New money wanting to make even more money

do you expect Cruz to solve this issue ? the same guy who fled to Cancun when the power in his state, went off and people were freezing..

When you block new power plants from being built with a growing state if 30 million people, then you have loud things like this pop up.

“The bitcoin made me blind” lol

This is 2024 NEWS!!!

I live in a county next to Hood county. Knowing them, they voted for the governor and senator, knowing full well their stance on this issue that is effecting them. And will continue to do so. Smh

Why the hell Texas? Isn't it boiling hot there? Surely Alaska or something..

Keep voting for people like Ted Cruz

Wonder if they dug underground 15 ft and build the sheds itll be colder and maybe the noise will be buried by the dirt

This seems to be a very easily fixed problem for marathon. They have the capital and there’s no reason that if they want to continue mining at that location that they should change all their miners to immersion cooling. That would completely solve the noise issues and help bring peace of mind to that community. This would be costly for marathon, so maybe a better option would be to move locations. A responsible bitcoin miner should step through the front door of that community before setting up shop and create some sort of positive incentives for that community, they are in.

They can put noise insulation on the miners. It’s not a hard problem to solve.

It is what it is, welcome to the industrial world

Please get the EPA involved. I believe the organization “quiet communities” is in the process of suing the EPA for lack of regulations in our current times as the noise pollution has run rampant. This is torture. We can’t close our ears. It’s happening everywhere, not only bitcoin facilities but pool pumps, car motors, leaf blowers, construction. We are not built for this type of auditory assault.

why is this just being posted today?

stress for any reason including noise can induce hair loss

All of this for magical coins

Like roosters, maybe you need more roosters.

How was the gas plant better healthwise? They should be mad at who's mining, not bitcoin in general. It is like hating money cause a busy bank moved in.

I bet these complainers would rather have more fracking and earthquakes physically hurting them and their buildings. These factories are in the countryside with very little agriculture value. They are in the best locations possible. People shouldn't live around them. Living in the city with urban noise and air pollution is much worse.

Is it less noisy during the winter / night ? Since less heat. Maybe the same 24/7

It's a small matter. Claiming ignorance now is not going to change nothing... nothing. Vote them out or enjoy the spl levels you currently are experiencing. It is sad and tragic. Sound is wavelength, and frequency. It is an energy wave. How many have to die before this is taken care of?

If there electric bills go up how do you not get them for extorting

You will buy Bitcoin at the price you deserve.

Sounds like bitcoin needs to step it up and buy the whole town and let all these people live in peace in the next town over

With OUR POWER GRID? They're idiots. 🤦🏽‍♀️

We have one in small town, it is not that bad!

why doesn't mara just dig a hole and put them underground. It would keep them cooler and fix the sound problem. Are they stupid?

It is simple solution, build noise protection walls.

😂 Ask Trump to let you move in so you don’t have to hear the noise

Now do a follow up on how much energy Marathon GENERATES with their solar farm subsidiary and tell the whole truth about how they are net negative on consumption please.

This is where all those "stop oil" protestors need to set up shop

It's sound torture. Try living above a bar. No sleep is bad. This is also frustrating because i don't know what blockchain or Bitcoin actually makes or provides.

There was a fantastic article in The Atlantic about a similar story community in Arizona. Same problem, computer fan’s running 24/7.

Yeah doctor is need to talk about bit crime 😂

This is ridiculous millions of people have lived next to freeways, the ocean is loud and that's where everybody wants to live... why is it this one little quaint community??

Noise pollution 24hrs! and the new heat too!! Base music AND REVVING ENGINES CAR NOISE etc, in caravan parks have resulted in 3 mature men to have pace makers and 2 hearing aids! Its 2024 come on start caring, its too old! 4 years of noise will give the young dementia, the birds kick off too! GET WOKE DRS NO MONEY IF WE ALL DEAD

How you liking that "freedom" and deregulation, Texas?

Hood county is clearly a baby boomers town.....SMH

Oh, the irony! Texans, proud defenders of their right to bear arms, now find themselves powerless against the deafening noise of a Bitcoin farm. One would think that a community so dedicated to their firearms might take a more... direct approach to solving this nuisance. But no, it seems the sound of gunfire is more acceptable than the hum of mining rigs. Perhaps they're saving their ammo for something more critical, or maybe they're just hoping the noise will drive the Bitcoin out faster than their bullets ever could.

Also gotta love how you can’t hear them at all during the interviews on their properties lol

I have zero sympathy. They don’t want any regulations until it comes to them. Leopard eating face party gets shown every time.

In reality, what value does Bitcoin give to the World?

Gosh and I think I would prefer the smoke instead of that.. So it a constant buzz sound. I get roosters and music but that surprise me as all spread out and in a big field.

That's just crazy people ain't playing around in the crypto industry

Like mining gold and other resources is better? Don't be dumb, everything you are using, living in, driving, etc. was made by mining and noise.

Only way Time will travel to Texas.. Bitcoin!

Now they will want to California. High regulation state.

There are data centers everywhere, why is this place such a problem?

Bitcoin is our future!

Crypto for years has claimed they can do all these things better like transferring money, sending and receiving things, containing ID’s, etc. But when you simply look around it’s rather simple to discern that the infrastructure we ALREADY have in place is not only better than what a blockchain offers, it’s also more efficient, and uses MUCH less power from the grid. Crypto is a sham. The end

Noise is not a crime

LMAO the irony is creeeeeeamy! They loved the sound of the gas production plant right? That’s why it was moved… 😂 😅and the environmental impact 😅

Wa the coins at ? So made up !

oh damn, gotta move those miners. underground. also, cooler underground. also, vote for politicians who take zoning seriously.

I don’t hear anything

Cry harder.

🐎🐎

“Poor white farmers.” 😂

سلام,❤❤

I cant think of anybody more deserving than a bunch of Texans.

Someone should goto their city council and tell them all to buy bitcoin and move out 5 years later when they’re millionaires

Shut down all crypto currency it's pointless.... All countries have tender and know what the equivalent is in each country or can easily find out 🎉

The case just went to trial. The jury found all 12 citations unreasonable and David Fischer was found not guilty on all counts. Biased much time?

Didn't care about the environment why should we care that its a bit loud for you

I get that the noise is annoying but I doubt it’s causing old man’s heart to stop. He probably has a bad heart.

😂 women sure complain a lot.

How can I make more profitable investment in crypto without incurring most losses??

Shoulda bought some Bitcoin folks!!!!

Bitcoin doesnt take away any kind of electricity which is rare at high market prices. Miners just run if there is too much electricity available in the grid to stabilize supply and demand.

People complaining about the sound of the greatest asset humanity has ever seen. Fail.

“My dog started going bald from noise pollution” smdh come on time magazine this is trash

Jesus... "My dog's hair fell out because of the noise". (some) Americans NEED a conspiracy or anything to be outraged about. People have never in all of human history lived in noisy industrial areas? What a joke.

Baby boomers just don't understand blockchain.or btc😂

Well, people need to quit investing in currency that has now real world value. There is no gold bricks backing the value of bitcoin. It is far too easily inflated by artificial means.

Now that Bitcoin etf is approved, What is the best strategy to enter crypto trading for someone with more or less than $5,000 to invest?

Whiners

BTC doesn't cause you to get a pacemaker. Poor diet causes you to get a pacemaker 💯
