put $100 in it like a year ago when I decided Id allocate $1000 to various gambling purposes. Started full sell when it was at 31 last night

was my only non-index fund investment, had sold the rest off at various tines and was holding cash

if only I had 10k in it but that would be a ridiculous amount of money to put into this crap instead of in real investments

I can't, with a good conscience, support an unnecessary system that has such extreme energy consumption

The planet is already dying, let's not actively try to speed that up, ok?

Not on this scale, with regards to energy consumption. Crypto mining consumes massive amounts of energy and creates an equally massive carbon footprint.

I started to buy some TWO DAYS ago at 11, but was going to wait and see the ups and downs of the next couple weeks.

Pretty much. Consumerism in general is bad for the environment, obviously, but crypto is quite exceptionally so, especially considering the only tangible benefit it provides is another table at which investors can gamble.

Proof of Work mining consumes a ton of energy. Proof of Stake (of which almost all 3rd gen token support and the whole point of ETH 2.0 is to move to POS) consumes significantly less energy. I wish people would make this distinction when speaking to the energy consumption of crypto. Not to mention crypto miners are some of the biggest users of alternative power sources.
