Does it matter, really? If Bitcoin mining wasn't run on chinese hydro power, some other industry could use that power but now instead uses a more polluting option.
- StavrosK 9y agoGood point, so Bitcoin is actually killing no people, and we need to stop that other industry asap.

- StavrosK 9y agoSure, but we could also game less to burn less coal. I hardly think Bitcoin is the most useless thing we do with energy.
- akvadrako 9y agoThat probably isn't true, which is why that power is so cheap.
