EC Nebraska | Leaving side the fact that fusion power has been a couple decades away for half a century, this wouldn't be that big of a deal.
The article claims that a fusion plant powering 2.5m homes could produce 5 tons of gold annually.
Assuming that means "million", there are 150 million homes in the US. 60 such plants could supply power to every home in America while producing 300 tons of gold annually.
Current gold mining is producing 3,000-3,500 tons of gold annually.
I don't see it really crashing the market, and that assumes that it actually yields as well as theory suggests.
Normally, that doesn't happen. | |
