French political party Rassemblement National is reportedly preparing a draft law to mine Bitcoin with surplus nuclear energy.

Rassemblement National (RN), a French political party, is reportedly pushing to mine Bitcoin using surplus energy from nuclear power plants, signaling a shift from its leader’s previous anti-crypto stance. 

French newspaper outlet Le Monde reported last week that RN leader and three-time presidential candidate Marine Le Pen now backs using idle nuclear energy for Bitcoin (BTC) mining. She reportedly promoted the plan during a visit to the Flamanville nuclear plant on March 11. The party said the initiative will turn wasted electricity into “secure and extremely profitable” digital assets. 

According to Le Monde, RN lawmaker Aurélien Lopez-Liguori has spearheaded the proposal in the French Parliament, drafting a bill to install mining infrastructure at sites operated by the energy giant Électricité de France (EDF).
