🔌💸 BREAKING: Pakistan Finds Genius Way to Solve Power Crisis – Start a Bitcoin Mining One Instead!
Why give electricity to hospitals, homes, and factories when you can burn 2,000 megawatts mining crypto and powering AI bots? 🇵🇰🔥
Yes, in a move that shocked even the IMF (and let’s be honest, that’s hard to do), Pakistan has decided to go full “tech bro” and launch a national Bitcoin mining operation – all while facing crippling power shortages. Priorities, right?
💬 IMF’s Reaction:
“Interesting. You have blackouts, unpaid bills, and budget deficits… and you’re allocating massive power to mint magic internet coins. Cool cool cool.”
Here’s what’s bothering the IMF:
❓ Nobody knows if crypto mining is even legal in Pakistan. Not the lawmakers. Not the regulators. Not even the Finance Ministry.
⚡ You already have rolling blackouts, but now plan to divert even more power? Genius.
💸 Oh, and the plan includes subsidized rates for miners and AI data centers. Because obviously, they need cheap power more than actual people.
🤝 The IMF wasn’t even told before the announcement. Surprise! That’s how bold strategies work, right?
🧠 The Government’s Pitch:
"Hey, we’ve got idle coal plants. Let’s fire them up, invite some crypto bros, and maybe start a Bitcoin reserve while we’re at it. It’s not a power crisis—it's a digital transformation!”
📉 Meanwhile, ongoing talks for that small $7 billion IMF loan just got a lot more awkward. Apparently, using taxpayer energy for speculative assets wasn’t in the budget draft.
Moral of the story?
If you’re broke and in an energy crisis, just mine some crypto. What could possibly go wrong?
