In rural Pennsylvania, old gas wells are being used for bitcoin mining-even though the owners are breaking the law
Briefly

May heard a roaring noise coming from a bitcoin mine atop wells producing natural gas on State Game Lands 44 in Pennsylvania, disrupting hunting activities with a thunderous sound resembling an airplane taking off.
The bitcoin mine did not have proper authorization from state regulators, operating without permits to power cryptocurrency mining using the natural gas from fracking wells, resulting in a violation notice from the Department of Environmental Protection.
