[QUOTE="Aussie Pete, post: 76155156, member: 421731"] Christmas lights are usually efficient LED's these days. My point? "If Bitcoin were a country, it would rank in the top 30 worldwide for energy use. That’s roughly enough electricity to power countries with populations in the tens of millions, with an environmental burden of an estimated 34 megatons of carbon emissions or more, according to Digiconomist’s Bitcoin Energy Consumption Index. Of course, Bitcoin isn’t unique among [URL='https://www.forbes.com/advisor/investing/what-is-cryptocurrency/']cryptocurrencies[/URL] in terms of its environmental burden, but its high profile and uniquely inefficient transaction approval system make it an easy scapegoat. The blockchain technology that underlies it, meanwhile, could be the key to a greener future." While people are being pestered to reduce greenhouse emissions and governments blackmailing/bribing businesses to help, bitcoin is a massive addition for absolutely no benefit to anyone. At least you can see Christmas decorations. [/QUOTE]
