CoinVoice has learned that, according to Cointelegraph, the National Rally party (Rassemblement National) in France is preparing a bill to propose using surplus electricity from nuclear power plants for Bitcoin mining.

The party's deputy, Aurélien Lopez-Liguori, has drafted the relevant bill in the French Parliament, planning to deploy mining infrastructure at nuclear power plants operated by Electricité de France (EDF). This proposal marks a significant shift in the party leader Marine Le Pen's stance on cryptocurrency, as she previously advocated for a ban on cryptocurrencies in 2016.[Original link]
