Very few people realize that Europe’s entire electricity needs can be met with solar panels covering an area less than the size of the island of Sicily! Battery packs can cover the energy needed during the night.

Comments are full of people in the little red circle, telling the people in the big red circle, that solar doesn't work, because of winter...

Elon Musk's solar musings triggered a crypto shrug, with GORK being the only asset that seemed to care. ETH wobbled: down 0.03% in 1 minute, 0.28% in 5, then a token 0.04% rebound at 10 minutes. DOGE mirrored the apathy: minor dips of 0.26%, 0.56%, and 0.33% across the same intervals. GORK, ever the contrarian, rallied 1.03%, 1.75%, and 1.43%—perhaps the only ticker with a solar panel fetish. Volatility was nap-worthy compared to historical posts: similar solar-themed tweets last year moved ETH and DOGE by fractions, though GORK’s 2.35% spike in one instance suggests it’s chronically over-caffeinated. Nothing says "market-moving insight" like crypto reacting to renewable energy trivia with the enthusiasm of a spreadsheet.
