From May to August last year, Corpus Christi's #Bitcoin mine consumed 11,563,000 gallons of water, according to utility records that the Observer previously obtained via a local resident’s public information request.
Now the city is refusing to share the latest data. https://www.texasobserver.org/corpus-christi-cryptomine-water-usage-secret/

that is about 3 million gallons a month
or roughly 0.1 million gallons/day
is that number, with no context, a lot or a little ?
so far as I can tell, the city supplies about 90 million gallons a day
so the BC is using way way less then 1% of the water
is that a lot or a little ?
hard to say
now it is true there is a drought
but still
