This thread is what, 90% "no, I have not", which doesn't answer the question at all.

So to chip in on that: I changed my mind from "this is stupid" to "this is stupid and evil".

Reason: Energy consumption, plus the greed.

Christopher Hitchens said that religion is the only way that a good person can do absolutely heinous evil acts. But he was wrong. Greed can, too.

The number of bodies otherwise good people have crawled over in the name of bitcoin greed, while yelling "IT'LL BE A UTOPIA IN THE END (and by the way in the meantime I'm getting rich yo, but that's a coincidence)!" is sickening.
