Let’s push this further toward the theoretical extreme.

Suppose energy became one million times cheaper (and thus people could turn on a million times more miners—a million times the current hashrate for the same electricity cost).

The difficulty would simply adjust to make it a million times harder to find a block. So why would the price plummet if the supply stays the same?
