Bitcoin uses approximately 130 TWh annually. The US residential electricity usage from 2018 (latest I could find) was 1,461 TWh. So 1461 * 6% you get 87.66 TWh

Bitcoin uses approximately 130 TWh annually. The US residential electricity usage from 2018 (latest I could find) was 1,461 TWh. So 1461 * 6% you get 87.66 TWh annually for drying clothes. Thankfully we can address energy waste in many different areas at the same time. In the latest bill there were rebates passed for heat pump dryers which can reduce energy usage for a dryer by 50%
