  I'm not sure how that's relevant to the calculation here.

    This is by far the least productive HN thread I've ever been on. The article just isn't related to a raw energy calculation, as that is not impacted by where the energy comes from. edit - noted. Avoid crypto threads on HN as they're like discussing things on reddit.

      you're technically right that the article i linked isn't making the same calculation as you made. I'm not sure why you saw it as a rebuff or some kind of argument for/against. I linked it because i'd imagine that a big concern about blockchain energy usage is the environmental impact.
