> Estimates on Bitcoin energy usage put it at over 1TW now. I believe it was comparable to the energy consumption of Argentina. Looks like Argentina generates 131TWh annually as of 2016. The US was estimated to generate 4K TWh (a.k.a. 4PWh) in 2020. "Argentina generates 131,910,280 MWh of electricity as of 2016 (covering 109% of its annual consumption needs)." https://www.worldometers.info/electricity/argentina-electricity/ https://www.worldometers.info/electricity/argentina-electric... Bitcoin energy usage is estimated at 100TWh annual, but the upper bound estimate is nearly 350TWh so it could be more than Argentina. https://cbeci.org https://cbeci.org
