That money should be used to invest in real energy storage and not burning it through asics and useless calculations.

This model includes batteries and it uses mining to pay for those batteries.

Is that your money? The whole point of money is that who owns it decides where it should be used.

[Blumfid]

Yes let's ignore that I'm living on the same planet as you do and it doesn't affect myself and my family.

Right?

And no we don't live in a society where this doesn't matter. You are not allowed to do with your money whatever you want.

Buying a hitman: illegal in most of the world.

And you do understand that it is hypocritical to create a ton of co2 and making farming in other countries really hard and complaining later about immigrants. Just putting it in perspective

[silveraxe93]

How on Earth is comparing this to hiring a hitman reasonable?

If your point is that you can't spend money on illegal things, bitcoin is not illegal.

Also, who complained about immigrants? Where did this come from. And even if immigrants/farming had any relevance to the discussion co2 is likely to increase crop yields.

[Blumfid]

It's just an easy example of disproving your argument.

Bringing up immigration is just a reference on today and what will come due to thinking that we as a society don't depend on decision from others.

It's a global problem with global implications for all of us.

And no co2 hurts us more than it helps us.
