Thanks! I did not know this term. This is also the only argument that makes sense. Governments don't seem so keen on implementing though, because of many reasons. Airplanes were flying empty in, at least, beginning of Covid because of bureaucracy ffs!

Wouldn't that be offloaded to the sector that is producing the negative externality? If you are mining, you are using electricity. If that electricity is coming from fossil energy, then that tax is already paid. If you are mining in a country that generates its energy with solar power, doesn't the argument of "bitcoin bad" become shaky?

  "Bitcoin bad" is already shaky. If we as a society care about these energy problems we need to start fixing it in the beginning of the supply chain and work our way to the end.
