> Environmental cost is a BS argument because nobody talks about the environmental cost of the already existing technologies that they are using. Have you been living under a rock for the past several decades? Or is this only a thing in EU? Every single fridge or TV sold has an energy class rating. Apple's new processors are all the rage because of their performance per watt. We use 230v (rather than 110v) AC because it's more efficient over medium-distance power lines. > So there is no difference in between using an electric car and crypto in that regard - you are still using carbon-producing energy. The car uses energy to move mass, it's almost the textbook definition of work in physics. Cryptocurrency is based on proof of waste - you must provide a mathematical proof of pointlessly wasted CPU cycles to conduct transactions. > All energy needs to be green. "All lives matter."
