In its inaugural meeting which was host on Twitter Spaces, the council discussed bad press that has been surrounding Bitcoin and its mining in the past weeks. The China crackdown has led to the shut down of a number of mining farms. Mining has been restricted in regions like Inner Mongolia and miners are having to look for new places to set up operations in the meantime. Concerns over energy consumption and pollution from mining activities have been rocking the space for a while. People have called for there to be more options for green and efficient bitcoin mining. Movement from fossil fuel energy to more sustainable energy like hydropower for mining activities have been strongly encouraged.

Bitcoin Mining Council Mandate Saylor had created the council in response to ongoing debates about Tesla accepting bitcoin payments. The debates were mostly about if Tesla had examined the energy expenditures involved with Bitcoin mining before making such a move. With prominent founders such as Galaxy, Riot, MicroStrategy, and a host of others, a lot of attention was on the first BMC meeting to see what the outcome would be. The council which was announced about a month ago held its first official meeting on Twitter yesterday. The meeting was opened to the public and anyone could join it. With over 7,000 listeners in attendance, the council went on to outline the council\u2019s objectives. The Bitcoin Mining Council (BMC) stated that its purpose was not to be a regulating body of any kind. They are not here to tell anybody what to do. It is to be a forum that is open to all bitcoin miners. It is free to join. The members just have to agree to be transparent about their energy mix and hash rate sizes for research and educational purposes. Its mandate is to promote transparency, share best practices, and educate the public on the benefits of Bitcoin and Bitcoin mining, according to the website. Curbing Negative Media Narratives Talking about the negative press that has been surrounding Bitcoin mining, the members focused on getting ahead of the media. There were also issues regarding whether public companies involvement would be good or bad for Bitcoin. Not wanting smaller operations to get swallowed up by bigger ones and discouraging people from getting into it. CEO Michael Saylor was less concerned about board members or activists pressures.

This involves work with charitable organizations focused on financial literacy and education. With each article, Best lends a voice to important issues such as a more financially inclusive future, transparent systems for growth and development, and technology that is not self-serving but one that serves all of humanity. When not curating engaging content, Best can be found reading a book with a cup of hot chocolate, enjoying a Netflix series, or exploring the outdoors with Green - the world\u2019s most quiet and well-behaved Husky. Best\u2019s interests also span other industries such as art, finance, and security, attending seminars and conferences in not just the crypto industry but other industries as well. As an animal lover, Best is also involved with charities for animals, local shelters, and rescues. Best is also involved in local events that promote inclusivity, such as being a prominent member of hiking clubs and a cycling club, as well as being a part of a very happy group of animal lovers. Best is a true professional in every sense of the word, with an exceptional dedication to producing high-quality work. This shines through in Best's work on and off the clock. These include advocating for inclusive crypto education for all, the impact of financial illiteracy, and the benefits of adopting new technologies such as cryptocurrencies. Best\u2019s prolific career in the media industry is a testament of how hard work and dedication pays.","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/best-owie-41a150178\/","https:\/\/x.com\/https:\/\/twitter.com\/BestOwie"],"url":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/author\/owiebest\/"}]}},"parsely":{"version":"1.1.0","meta":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","headline":"Bitcoin Mining Council: We Need To Tackle Negative Media Narratives","url":"http:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/bitcoin-mining-council\/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"http:\/\/uniquehot.com\/news\/bitcoin-mining-council\/"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Bitcoin-Mining-Council.png?resize=200%2C183","image":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Bitcoin-Mining-Council.png?fit=276%2C183"},"articleSection":"Cryptocurrency Market News","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Best Owie"}],"creator":["Best Owie"],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"NewsBTC","logo":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32"},"keywords":["bitcoin","bitcoin mining","bitcoin mining council","btc","btcusd","btcusdt","council","michael saylor","microstrategy","mining","xbtcusd","xbtusd. btcusdt"],"dateCreated":"2021-06-18T17:30:39Z","datePublished":"2021-06-18T17:30:39Z","dateModified":"2024-06-11T13:56:28Z"},"rendered":"<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">{\"@context\":\"https:\\\/\\\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"NewsArticle\",\"headline\":\"Bitcoin Mining Council: We Need To Tackle Negative Media Narratives\",\"url\":\"http:\\\/\\\/uniquehot.com\\\/news\\\/bitcoin-mining-council\\\/\",\"mainEntityOfPage\":{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"http:\\\/\\\/uniquehot.com\\\/news\\\/bitcoin-mining-council\\\/\"},\"thumbnailUrl\":\"https:\\\/\\\/uniquehot.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2021\\\/06\\\/Bitcoin-Mining-Council.png?resize=200%2C183\",\"image\":{\"@type\":\"ImageObject\",\"url\":\"https:\\\/\\\/uniquehot.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2021\\\/06\\\/Bitcoin-Mining-Council.png?fit=276%2C183\"},\"articleSection\":\"Cryptocurrency Market News\",\"author\":[{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"name\":\"Best Owie\"}],\"creator\":[\"Best Owie\"],\"publisher\":{\"@type\":\"Organization\",\"name\":\"NewsBTC\",\"logo\":\"https:\\\/\\\/uniquehot.com\\\/wp-content\\\/uploads\\\/2020\\\/06\\\/cropped-cropped-cropped-favicon.png?w=32\"},\"keywords\":[\"bitcoin\",\"bitcoin mining\",\"bitcoin mining council\",\"btc\",\"btcusd\",\"btcusdt\",\"council\",\"michael saylor\",\"microstrategy\",\"mining\",\"xbtcusd\",\"xbtusd. btcusdt\"],\"dateCreated\":\"2021-06-18T17:30:39Z\",\"datePublished\":\"2021-06-18T17:30:39Z\",\"dateModified\":\"2024-06-11T13:56:28Z\"}<\/script>","tracker_url":"https:\/\/cdn.parsely.com\/keys\/uniquehot.com\/p.js"},"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Bitcoin-Mining-Council.png?fit=276%2C183","amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/465861"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/541"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=465861"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/465861\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/465862"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=465861"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=465861"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniquehot.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=465861"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
