#CryptoFees101 China just hacked the U.S. power infrastructure (again). Yes, they can literally turn off your lights.
Hey there, all you American solar power lovers and eco-warriors — guess what? China may have just figured out how to screw your government hard.
Turns out, there are rogue communication devices hidden inside Chinese-made solar inverters, and even undocumented cellular radios buried in Chinese battery systems. Yeah, cellular radios. You read that right.
These inverters aren’t just sitting on some roof panels — they’re used to connect solar panels, wind turbines, EV chargers, and even heat pumps directly to the grid. U.S. companies using this gear thought they were being clever by blocking outbound connections to China. Except… they didn’t know that there are secret radios inside the hardware that can call home whenever they want.
So, theoretically — and very realistically — China can just flip a switch and kill the power, remotely frying or disabling thousands of connected devices. Think: massive infrastructure disruption in seconds.
The best part? The U.S. government knows and won’t talk about it. Total radio silence. Which probably means it’s even worse than it sounds.
This isn’t a tinfoil hat moment — this is real, and it’s already in the wild.
