How is it an environmental disaster? I hear you on energy use but that if we get to 99% renewables the excess generation/load capability could turn this statememt on its head.
The US gov will sacrifice their place in the world order by undermining US dollar sanction power tho!
- frankbreetz 6y agowhen will that happen? how much damage will be done before then? there is not a lot of excess CO2 budget remaining.
- ldbooth 6y agoThe majority of all electricity and auto power we use is an environmental disaster. My gore tex jacket, anything producing forever chemicals as biproducts is an environmental disaster (Dupont). Your car tires and mine apparently have biproducts affecting salmon health. But you're just calling out the hot topic -that's my point. bitcoin's energy useage - yes it's completely wasteful by design. But one day in the future Bitcoin may not be in comparison to our gore-tex problem, our cow-methane problem. Keepin' it real. I'm saying 2050 it could be solar powered completely. Then batteries can be an enviromental disaster ... it's a never ending cycle Call a spade a spade: it's the financial sanction power that will stop bitcoin. Why would the US give that up? Decline only.
