I heard that quite a few BTC miners have recently been using $NAT, this Bitcoin companion mining coin, to offset their electricity costs? This operation is quite interesting.
Specifically, miners can earn $NAT tokens while mining Bitcoin, which can be directly used to offset part of the electricity costs. This way, the use case becomes practical—it's not just about trading speculation, but real money savings. If mining pools adopt this playstyle, it may attract more hash power.
In the long run, this "mining and spending directly" closed loop supports the circulation demand for $NAT. Compared to relying purely on speculation to drive prices, tokens with actual consumption scenarios may better withstand cyclical fluctuations.

This is the real gameplay; real scenarios are worth ten thousand times more than worthless coins.

This is the right way—not every coin needs to rely on storytelling. Only those with real utility can last long.

Really? You can directly offset your electricity bill? Now that's what I call a real-world application, unlike some coins that just hype up concepts all day.

Wow, this is the real practical scenario, not the Be Played for Suckers trap.

This is the correct way to approach it. Otherwise, those scamcoins are really meaningless. I agree with the logic that mining them directly has practical use.

This is the right way, finally a coin has figured it out. It's not just about talking big concepts every day, but really able to help miners save money, speaking through practical scenarios.
Real use > scamcoin, how come so many projects can't understand this logic?
Wait, can the electricity costs really be fully offset, or just a small part? Details are crucial.
Mining costs are so high, saving a bit is saving a bit, $NAT indeed has something going for it this time.
However, the premise for the mining pools to follow suit is that the coin price must stabilize; if it falls like crazy, no one will want it.
A good self-circulating ecosystem is nice, but I'm afraid it will again turn into a tool for playing people for suckers, and then it will be a mess.
