Avoiding Bitcoin because we use coal to produce energy cannot be more wrong. The problem is that we produce energy with coal, not that Bitcoin uses energy to be mined. With such reasoning, then let's forget about smartphone, laptop, car, planes, house heating etc. and just go back straight to prehistory. Each of these things pollute the planet, let's not deny it.
And if you think that BTC is not worth this energy waste to get rid off USD dominance (among others), then it's maybe you're an American enjoying USD dominance. That's of course a very biased view.
