Greenland plans to launch a hydropower bidding project in the second half of 2026, with an expected annual capacity of over 9,500 GWh, theoretically enough to support approximately 56 EH/s of Bitcoin mining hash rate — equivalent to 4 to 6% of the global network hash rate. This has attracted renewed attention from U.S. policymakers, but significant political and infrastructure obstacles remain to be addressed from conception to actual deployment. Although the potential is enormous, the path to realization involves many uncertainties, and investors should remain cautious and observant.

The Greenland thing sounds pretty impressive, but will it really materialize? Uh... I'm skeptical.
It's the same old story, just making empty promises.
56EH? That's nonsense. Political games are the real headache.
4-6% hash rate sounds impressive, but let's wait until there's real electricity.
Policy changes happen in waves, and investments often end up wasted. I've seen it too many times.

This move in Greenland is really awesome, but speaking of which, we'll have to wait until 2026. Who knows what the BTC market will look like by then.

The Greenland thing sounds pretty good, but the political mess is a bit complicated...

Sounds great, but the political environment in Greenland is very complicated. Don't be fooled by these numbers.
