Cash can be burned so it might come in handy.Paper rectangles, yes, but you can't burn metal disks, and burning plastic debt rectangles is a bad idea. It produces toxic smoke.
Imagine youβre living among the ruins, and someone offers you gold or diamonds in return for food, clothing, or shelter.No need to imagine, happened already, what's your point?
Global Bitcoin mining is highly dependent on fossil fuels, with worrying impacts on water and land in addition to a significant carbon footprint.United Nations University
China, by a large margin, has been the biggest Bitcoin mining nation. To offset the carbon emissions from China's coal-intensive Bitcoin mining operations in 2021β2022, about 2 billion trees should be planted, covering an area equivalent to the sum of Portugal and Ireland or 45,000 times the area of Central Park in New York City. Aside from China, the worldβs top 10 Bitcoin mining nations in 2020β2021 included the United States, Kazakhstan, Russia, Malaysia, Canada, Germany, Iran, Ireland, and Singapore.
It just became a whole lot easier and much more profitable to mine for bitcoin.MacKenzie Sigalos (CNBC)
The second-biggest country for bitcoin mining lost its internet access, taking as much as 15% of the network offline.MacKenzie Sigalos (CNBC)
about how the Bitcoin mining operations moved about isnβt really addressing their climate impact.You mean moving from countries that produce energy mainly from coal to countries that use mainly geothermal/water/wind/solar energy is not addressing climate impact? Really? In the end only renewables are cheap enough for Bitcoin, as coal has much higher cost (digging, transporting, environmental costs etc). Using it for bitcoin mining is only possible if the government decided to subsidize these costs for the industry or private households. They are never subsidized for Bitcoin. Don't blame Bitcoin for countries not sticking to the Paris climate treaty.
And cryptocurrency is already showing the usual appetite for never ending growthAnother misconception again... 1 Bitcoin is still 1 Bitcoin and there will be only 21 Million. No growth.
scientists behind those studies than I would the mouthpieces for a corporation like Comcast or a neoliberal publication like Nikkei.So you shoot the messenger for all messages you are not agreeing to? Sure...
The article was written by the system (politicians)You "shot" the scientists, not me.
You all fall for the distraction of corporate greed.
I would more readily trust the scientists behind those studies
Inflation is the motor for an ever growing economic system that results in climate change and pollution. This must end. Using deflationary assets like Bitcoin can actually help, because it removes the pressure of everlasting growth and consumerism. You would only spend it for really important and sustainable things as Bitcoin will be more worth in fiat currency later.That was a funny read!
yourβs is just just right wing extremist whataboutism.Okay, so that is your explanation? lol. You certainly want the easy and wrong ones ;)
