Using real energy to mine fake currency. It’s the 21st century version of the Tulip Craze.

>>“Bitcoin could potentially switch to such a consensus algorithm, which would significantly improve sustainability,” he claimed. “The only downside is that there are many different versions of proof-of-stake, and none of these have fully proven themselves yet.”
There isn’t even proof of sustainability or man-made global warming yet.

Bitcoin energy consumption had risen by almost 30 percent in the last month. Based on that rate of growth, Bitcoin electricity consumption will overtake the U.S. by July 2019 and the world by 2020.
Twain writes someplace about people calculating the same way concerning the shrinkage of the Mississippi Delta being projected and that in so many years New Orleans and St. Louis will be electing a common board of alderman.
Lies, damned lies, and statistics.

Exponential growth in energy usage?? If that is literally true this whole thing cannot go on a lot longer.... mere efficiencies however sought will be overwhelmed by exponential growth.

I hear that the mining of di-hydrogen monoxide will be the next big thing! It is a VERY valuable and essential commodity.

Unintended consequences. This could have major long-term implications, I think.

Who takes these fake coins in exchange for goods or services? Can you get real money for them, or are they like Star Treks “credits”?
