Good catch. Before seeing your post I was musing about this homeless person allegedly using his laptop(!) in a park with free WiFi to make money watching 12 YT vids a day(!), and I was wondering what his electricity costs were, or more specifically how he recharged his laptop in a way that still let him profit from his YT pittance. Hehe - the guy is walking around with a laptop but doesn't have to worry about being robbed because he uses BTC (how do the putative robbers know?). Quite the fairy tale for all sorts of reasons.
