Make sure to watch the Google Io from yesterday to see what Google actually is about.
Apple makes high quality luxury hardware and that's it.
Google tries to save the world (android, maps, secure by default, 24x7 renewable...). Of course overstating a little bit as google is still just a company who earns money
Instead of putting a Powerline there or building a smelter or something else, Bitcoin is easier and makes more money quicker.
This is not a good thing right now this is still bad. And as soon as you have Bitcoin mining there, no one wants to underutilize it because it is inefficient. Now your miner is motivated to run even more and get more money
Do you really believe a Bitcoin miner would accept being shut down for most of the day? Nope.
And independent of this issue: there are of course things which are objectively better for that person in Afghanistan and objectively better for everyone.
Your poor Afghanistan person might like to have less heat waves than Bitcoin because he might not have enough money anyway to save it away as Bitcoin.
Normally those countries use dollar or euro anyway. It's much easier for them than being able to remember a Bitcoin wallet
It feels very similar to when I hold an expensive CPU in my hand or a very expensive (because handmade) watch which is 'more' than just a CPU or watch.
Otherwise it's just tax fraud.
I would put 20-30k aside to be save.
