The country is using its abundant hydropower resources to power its Bitcoin mining operations in an environmentally sustainable way. Bhutan's strategic use of cryptocurrency as an economic asset is attracting foreign direct investment and creating local jobs. The country's "Mindfulness City" project aims to fulfill Bhutan's long-term vision by integrating sustainable development with modern technologies. Bhutan's adoption of blockchain and Bitcoin presents an alternative view of success that prioritizes well-being and sustainability.
