Greenland plans to launch large-scale hydropower bidding in the second half of 2026, with an expected total capacity of over 9500 GWh/year—enough to support approximately 56 EH/s of Bitcoin mining hash rate, accounting for about 4-6% of the entire network. The White House has expressed optimism about this project, but for it to actually materialize, significant political coordination and infrastructure reforms are required. From the perspective of energy costs and geopolitical layout, it is indeed attractive, but there are many policy uncertainties, and speculative factors are strong. Cautiously monitor subsequent developments.

Greenland mining is back, this time with the White House endorsement... But it's better to call it coordination; if you say it harshly, it's just bickering. --- 56 EH/s sounds intimidating, but let's see if it can actually be implemented. --- Once again, it's the 2026 hype. I'll just smile and respect it. --- Geopolitical advantages can indeed be effective, but I'm worried that political turbulence will cause a two-year delay again. --- Policy uncertainties are even harder to predict than mining difficulty. --- The White House's optimism doesn't equal real investment; there's too much speculation involved. --- Cheap energy is real, but can infrastructure keep up? That's the key. --- Greenland: I have electricity. Global miners: Then just wait and see. --- Whenever 56 EH is truly dug out with the first shovel, it won't be too late to get excited.

Greenland is starting to talk about hydropower again. It won't count until it actually comes to fruition in 2026.

How does this wave in Greenland still feel like just a pie in the sky? Policy uncertainties are too great. The White House talks nicely, but actually making the decision is another matter. I've seen this routine too many times. 56 EH/s sounds tempting, but being able to implement even half of it would be considered a big win.

Will Greenland's hydropower plan really come to fruition? I'm actually curious to see if by 2026 there will be another set of explanations...

Is that little bit of electricity in Greenland really enough for mining? I think it's suspicious, too many political variables, brother. --- 56 EH/s sounds impressive, but actually implementing it is another matter... Even if the White House says so, we’ll have to wait and see. --- 4-6% of the total network share? If that really happens, miners will go crazy. --- In the second half of 2026, it feels like just another big talk, better to wait and see. --- Cheap energy costs are good, but the real concern is policy changes that could make everything worthless. --- Highly speculative +1, this feels a bit too good to be true. --- Infrastructure reform? Just listen, it won’t happen that quickly in reality. --- 56 EH/s... Should we just move the entire mining industry to Greenland? Haha. --- The White House is optimistic? Don’t buy it. There will be many variables, cautious observation is wise. --- If this really takes off, the geopolitical landscape of BTC will become more interesting.

56 EH/s sounds nice until you actually run the numbers on greenland's infrastructure timeline lol

The Greenland thing was hyped up too early; it won't move until 2026. Who knows if the policy will change by then?

Is Greenland really reliable? It feels like the US is just making big promises again. --- 9500 GWh sounds impressive, but political uncertainties are too unpredictable for me to bet on this. --- What’s the use of the White House’s optimism? The probability of it actually being implemented by 2026... I’d give it a 50% chance. --- 56 EH/s, everyone. If this works out, Bitcoin mining could be close to achieving universal harmony—dreams are nice. --- Low energy costs are true, but infrastructure reforms take at least five years—don’t get your hopes up too much. --- The biggest risk with this kind of geopolitical project is a change of plans midway. Those in the know understand this. --- It’s definitely speculative, and various capital sources are already itching to get involved.

Greenland's move is interesting; can the White House back it up and make it happen? I remain skeptical. 9500 GWh sounds impressive, but a sudden change in political winds could ruin it—I've seen this playbook too many times. 56 EH/s sounds good, but I'm worried it might end in failure.
