Recently Poland was in a similar situation. We produced too much energy from renewables. As a consequence we had to pay a few millions to other countries to take the energy. Moreover we had to compensate to individuals who have FV but their energy was not allowed to the grid. This is absolutely insane to me. Mining crypto sounds way better than this chaos. If not on country level then on individual level. I'd happily start mining myself if electricity prices were not fixed but followed the real demand.
