In a bid to solve the energy crisis and boost sustainability, Bitcoin miners in El Salvador have moved beyond tapping into volcanoes and are now eyeing lava lamps as a new source of renewable energy. Dubbed "Operation Mood Light," the ambitious initiative aims to harness the unpredictable flow of molten wax inside thousands of lava lamps to power mining rigs. Engineers behind the project insist the chaotic movements of the wax are perfect for generating random hash rates, calling it “the most chill mining experience in history.”

While the plan has drawn skepticism from energy experts, the crypto community is lighting up with excitement. Early tests revealed that one lava lamp can sustain a single Bitcoin transaction per month, provided it’s placed in a room with good vibes and no drafts. Social media platforms are flooded with memes of Bitcoin logos floating inside lava lamps, with captions like, “Mining just got groovy.”

Elon Musk has reportedly shown interest in the concept, tweeting, “Finally, a way to mine Bitcoin and vibe at the same time.” This sparked a 15% spike in Bitcoin’s value overnight, proving once again that Musk’s tweets have the power to disrupt global markets. Critics, however, remain unconvinced, with one analyst calling it “a bright idea with no wattage.”

Despite the skepticism, El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele is fully committed, stating, “If harnessing volcanoes made us pioneers, lava lamps will make us legends.” He announced plans to distribute lava lamps to every household in the country, calling it a win for Bitcoin, renewable energy, and the aesthetics of dorm rooms everywhere.
