## Quote — verbatim

> We're not stopping at compute. I'm touring power facilities... it's way more challenging to decentralize power than compute, but it's not out of the reach... There was an attempt at creating a power market by a company called Enron — they messed up — but I think there's another opportunity to create a truly decentralized power market.

Says Texas's independent grid makes it the place to experiment; mentions feasibility studies with friends to find solar-rich land for data centers ([00:49:28](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyGP_9A1SVs&t=2968s)). Quote spans into [00:48:45](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyGP_9A1SVs&t=2925s).
