    Everything around the servers.


    There's a lot more to a datacenter than just the computer. This bitcoin mine doesn't use 63Mw to compute with.

        Look at the room itself. Energy in has to equal energy out.

            I neglected to include accumulation, if a bitcoin could accumulate energy and store it, then E in can be greater than E out. How else can energy leave the room, except as heat?
