“There is a whirring, whining presence in my dining room. I notice it every time I walk through. Every day, it sucks down about one full kilowatt-hour of electricity. In a year, it will consume almost $100 worth of juice—and that’s on top of the $274 it costs to buy the box in the first place. Oh, and it’s hot, too. If I moved it into my office and could stand the noise, I could keep a cup of coffee comfortably warm on top of the thing. Why on earth would anyone want such a disagreeable little machine in their home? The short answer: every day, that machine magically generates something like $20 in bitcoins.”
