So I should pay significantly more on my bills, just because you want to play with some virtual coins?
- fsflover 5y agoYou should pay more because we have to take into account CO2 problem, which is the same problem for you and for miners.
- mlatu 5y agoI don't think that's the point. They could just increase price on higher usage. So everyone pays the same, but those who use more pay more²
- chapium 5y agoWouldn't a graduated pricing scheme be circumvented by additional hookups?
- vnorilo 5y agoI think they mean it's more efficient to tax/price energy as heavily as needed to reduce emissions across the board. Playing with virtual coins then becomes much, much less appealing to the average user, but we won't need to accumulate edge cases to ban.
