The energy isn’t making anything and it’s causing harm mining due to its vast energy usage. Buzz words and greenwashing don’t change that. Scrounging for the cheapest power source doesn’t make it special, everyone wants cheap energy.
We have money whether or not you mine crypto and time will tell whether or not its groundbreaking innovations free us. So far it’s been scams, hacks, failures and waste. Let’s see what happens next.
Your dismissal of Bitcoin as mere ‘buzzwords and greenwashing’ overlooks its tangible achievements and real-world impact. Bitcoin is not about ‘scrounging for cheap energy’; it’s about fostering a decentralized financial system with over 100 million users worldwide and a market cap surpassing $900 billion. Beyond finance, Bitcoin’s transparent, immutable ledger offers unparalleled resistance to fraud, censorship, and corruption. Its technological innovations, like the Lightning Network and Taproot, are pioneering advancements in cryptography, economics, and beyond. With an uptime of 99.98% and a network secured by a record-high hashrate, Bitcoin’s resilience and reliability are indisputable. Dismissing it as scams, hacks, and failures not only ignores these significant contributions but also trivializes the global movement towards financial sovereignty and innovation. The real waste is in failing to recognize Bitcoin’s value and potential in driving forward not just financial, but societal progress.
