The good old days of the previous government, where you could have a warehouse of GPUs mining bitcoins with subsidized electrical bills, are sadly over. Now people have to pay for what they use, like in any reasonable part of the world. Or is there any other country that provides electricity for ridiculous prices where all these startups you say will close will move to?

Well if you are really asking it, Paraguay has really cheap electricity. They sell back most of what they produce because they don't use it.

But no, not needed. If the bill really had to go up, do it progressively, not in one shot so you don't get everybody unprepared. If you think it by another angle, a 700% increase is a hell of a tax for technology companies or garage projects.
