Long perceived in France as an ecological disaster by the political class, Bitcoin (BTC) mining could soon be seen in a new light. Indeed, 123 deputies have submitted an amendment to commission a comprehensive study on its benefits in managing electricity surpluses.

Elsewhere in the world, other countries have already adopted Bitcoin (BTC) mining to stabilize their electrical networks, or at least are studying the issue. While this idea seemed distant in France, the fight of Bitcoiners is starting to bear fruit, as 123 deputies submitted an amendment on the subject on Thursday at the National Assembly, as noted by cybersecurity researcher Renaud Lifchitz on his X account.

Within one year from the promulgation of this law, the Government will submit a report to Parliament assessing the conditions for developing Bitcoin mining activities in France, as a tool for valorizing surplus electricity production, stabilizing the network, and optimizing the operation of the nuclear fleet.
