Regular reminder Bitcoin is climate crime, and all "crypto" wealth is a sub-denomination of Bitcoin -- there is no "clean" "crypto"

1x transaction has the CO2 equivalence of burning 140.5 litres of gasoline (at 2.8kg/l CO2e)

Yeah the original cypherpunks like esr and May are all lovely wholesome people, I'm sure ...

Congratulations to all who celebrate (SBF being found guilty)

Fraud is bad. And so is emitting the CO2 equivalent of burning 199.6 litres of gasoline, per transaction (558.95kg@2.8kg/l) -- infographic via DigiEconomist: digiconomist.net/bitcoin-ener...

One Bitcoin transaction has the relativistic energy equivalence of 133 M107 artillery shells (6.86kg @ a TNT equivalence 4.184e3 / 1)

But instead of going boom that energy is toasting the troposphere

Plenty of crypto trash but no crypto-critical communities here?

Love how clear this graphic makes it

Bitcoin energy consumption is tracking upwards again:

#Bitcoin relativistic energy equivalence:

Approximate equivalent energy (heating) to 17.3 'Little Boys' per day, @ 75TJ each, error ~3% due Nyquist noise + whatever
