[Trump: Bitcoin miners help stabilize the energy supply of the power grid] Golden Finance reported that Matthew Schultz, executive chairman of Bitcoin mining company CleanSpark Inc., said that several Bitcoin miners met with former President Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago on Tuesday night. Schultz said Trump told attendees that he loved and understood cryptocurrencies, adding that Bitcoin miners helped stabilize the energy supply of the power grid. Trump said he would speak for miners at the White House. The meeting came at a time when crypto miners are facing strong opposition over a range of issues including climate change and its impact on local power grids. Democrats have been leading efforts to increase scrutiny of Bitcoin miners' energy consumption and carbon emissions, and Texas Senator Ted Cruz has been a high-profile supporter of the industry.
