Bitcoin represents an environmental catastrophe - Elon Musk

Catastrophe are only for the poor. BTC are for the rich. Green plan initiatives do not apply.

Proof of stake has been proven to be an objectively superior mechanism however people will take decades to switch from bitcoin because they are retarded

>>26003082 There aren't enough solar panels in the world to push BTC above 10 transactions a second. This why BTC will get super seceded in use (not necessarily value) by proof of stake coins

I believe climate change is a threat to humanity, covid 19 is one of the most deadly viruses of all time worth locking the economy down in perpetuity if need be, and that gender is just a social construct that people can change about themselves at a whim by the time they are toddlers, all because I fucking love science and recognize that worshipping politically-chosen experts makes me intelligent.

>>26003138 >>26003150 Good thing btc does not care what american climate jews think. Aside from that, Bitcoin mostly uses energy that is low utility. https://twitter.com/C_Bendiksen/sta tus/1068221424777814016 According to this research bitcoin is already powered by 78% renewables. Even thought i think CO2 is a meme, the climate leftist NPCs are still wrong. There is absolutely no way to prove how much co2 bitcoin mining produces, since you would have to go to every miner in the world and determine their power source. To even estimate the energy consumption of bitcoin is extremely difficult. Cambridge made a theoretical lowerbound of 39.69TWh and a upper bound of 265.96 TWh. That is a total unknown difference of 226TWh so it is literally fucking impossible to know how much energy bitcoin consumes. The Greta jews are saying >"Bitcoin uses as much electricity as entire countries such as Iceland!" >Bitcoin uses as much as 1.7 million average American homes! when you could just as easily say >Bitcoin uses only a half of the output of the Three Gorges Dam (90 TWh/yr) >The amount of electricity consumed every year by always-on but inactive home devices in the USA alone could power bitcoin for 3.4years here is old analysis of bitcoin energy consumption that looks at each different ASIC, and how many could be in use http://blog.zorinaq.com/bitcoin-ele ctricity-consumption/ Few understand this https://www.unchained-capital.com/b log/bitcoin-does-not-waste-energy/

>>26003073 it's objectively inferior. here's the play by play >exchanges offer staking >its easier than doing it yourself and worrying about getting slashed >returns are better >majority of people decide to stake through exchanges >exchanges are now the main validators of the network >grayscale and etf products will also stake custodied coins, becoming validators themselves >vast majority of the coins are now held by regulated institutions, and since proof of stake allows holders to create blocks, the chain itself is easily regulated you literally are just asking to get fucked by governments. in proof of work, just because you own coins it doesn't mean shit. grayscale can take as much as they want. in order to create blocks you have to expend massive amount of energy which is a huge hurdle even for state actors. as asics continue to spread out globally this hash rate will get even more distributed and competitive. proof of work is the real innovation here
