Casey Neistat is a producer and youtuber with over 12 million subscribers to his channel on Youtube.
Neistat revealed on Thursday (26) through his Twitter that he has already mined Bitcoin (BTC). The operation, according to him, was of “questionable legality”.
However, he says he stopped operations due to the sound being like “several lawn mowers”.
Youtuber mined BTC
In his publication, Casey Neistat tells of his experience with Bitcoin mining:
I once ran a bitcoin mining operation of questionable legality out of a NYC office building. I had to eventually shut it down because it sounded like I had a dozen lawnmowers running 24/7 and it yielded more heat than the lava on Mustafar.

“I once had a Bitcoin mining operation whose legality was questionable in a building in New York. I eventually had to shut it down, because it sounded like a dozen lawnmowers operating non-stop, and a heat greater than the lava in Mustafar. ”
The publication was liked by Anthony Pompliano, also known as Pomp. Pomp is a well-known figure in the sphere of cryptocurrencies, especially on Twitter.
Neistat is the latest mainstream celebrity talking about Bitcoin.
Still in November, other famous people mentioned the crypto on their social networks.
Game of Thrones star invests in BTC
Maisie Williams is known for playing Arya Stark, a character in the acclaimed Game of Thrones series.
On November 16, she asked her Twitter followers if she should invest in BTC in the long run.
Although most of his followers spoke out against the idea, Williams published the following day:

“Thanks for the notices. I bought a little anyway. ”
Who also surrendered to Bitcoin was the rapper Logic. As reported by CriptoFácil, “Bobby Tarantino” bought R $ 32 million in BTC.
Although he did not say the exact day of the purchase, it is likely that Logic has already profited a lot from Bitcoin.
That’s because, in October, the lowest price of the cryptocurrency was around $ 10,000. The maximum value of BTC was just over US $ 14 thousand.
