what battery ? the way these things work is there is a known production capacity for things and you can buy that capacity before the thing is produced so for example due to AI boom, manufacturing capacity for memory chips is already sold out for the entire next year you can obviously do the same for electricity because power plants like chip manufacturing plants have a known fixed capacity let's say i buy 1 terawatt hours of capacity then somebody wants to run an AI data center but i own the power - they have to then buy it from me unless they build their own power plant which will take 10 years to build this is the most real kind of money because society can exist without bitcoin, without gold, without dollars - but it can't exist without electricity
