Crypto Industry News:

While New York State is pushing through a bill that will ban Proof of Work mining, members of the crypto community are voicing their opposition via social media.

Jake Chervinsky, head of policy at the Blockchain Association, explained in a Twitter thread that the move would not "reduce carbon emissions" at all. According to Chervinsky, the mining ban will force New York miners to operate elsewhere where the state has no control over them.

Chervinsky hopes New York Governor Kathy Hochul will veto the bill "for the sake of New York." The lawyer noted that the move sends a message that "crypto is not in a welcome state". Chervinsky added that if the law was implemented, it would be a political mistake on the part of the world's financial capital.

In addition to Chervinsky, this was opposed by US Senatorial candidate Bruce Fenton. In a tweet, he said governments have no right to control the specific software that citizens use. He noted that "code is speech," implying that the ban is a movement against freedom of speech.

Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin also agreed with Fenton. Sharing his thoughts on the subject, Buterin said the government should not decide which uses are "okay" for electricity. He suggested introducing carbon prices.

On June 3, a bill to ban mining was approved by the New York State Senate. After approval by the governor, the law will ban mining in the state and make it difficult to renew previously issued cryptocurrency mining permits.
