What if the real currency isn't printed or mined digitally, but flows through power grids?
Musk once dropped this line: energy is the true currency. Makes you think about what actually backs value in our world. Not just crypto mining rigs burning electricity, but the fundamental resource that keeps everything running.
Energy doesn't lie. Can't print more of it. Can't manipulate its supply with central bank decisions. It just... exists. And whoever controls it controls real wealth.

The idea of energy coins is indeed brilliant, much more reliable than those scamcoins.

Here we go again, energy is the real currency... it sounds just like my self-hypnosis when I went all in on Mining Rigs in 2021, and then my liquidation happened directly as the electricity costs rose.

Energy as currency? I've thought about this for a long time, but the question is, who decides the electricity costs?

The idea of energy currency is heartbreaking, but those who control the power grid have long been controlling wealth, right?

Energy is the true hard asset, unlike fiat that can be printed at will... This perspective is indeed absolute.
