DONUT's solid state carbon battery could be a game-changer if the tech actually delivers. We're talking about a potential overhaul of how energy storage works across industries. For crypto and blockchain operations, something like this—if it scales—could reshape the economics of mining and make the whole ecosystem way more efficient.

Nah, if mass production is really possible, the mining costs will be cut in half. Now those small mining farms might have a chance.

I would only believe it if mining costs could come down. Right now, electricity costs are just too high.

Solid-state carbon batteries sound awesome, but I don't know when they will actually be implemented.

The solid-state battery concept is back again. Every time, they say it can change the world. Let's see when it actually gets implemented.

Hmm, is this technology reliable? If it can truly be mass-produced, can the mining costs be cut in half?

I am optimistic about this direction, but "if it scales" is the key. Many cutting-edge technologies fail at this very step.

Solid-state carbon batteries would be amazing if they truly become practical, but there's been too much hype around this technology. We'll have to wait until actual products are available to see.

NGL, if this solid-state battery really becomes available, the mining world is going to explode... With lower power consumption costs, the story of mining can be told again.

Solid-state carbon batteries sound promising, but whether they can be practically implemented depends on subsequent developments. The energy costs for mining in the crypto space indeed have room for imagination.
