Except I actually own some crypto that I bought before I knew just how bad it is for the environment and, yes, before the price skyrocketed.

So I'm guessing you're filthy rich because you invested in 2009? >_>

I was on this board at the time and I never heard about Bitcoin until after its rise was mainstream news. CE failed me smh.

By running on a system that demands all participants continually increase energy consumption in order to prevent every other participant from fully controlling the netwoork

Proof of Work is one of the most poorly designed systems on the entire planet. All that waste for a false sense of security and "decentralization". Garbage.

This is like the 4-5th time theyve banned it so yeeeeeah, they can fuck right off. Its just another entity manipulating markets despite whatever reasons are given out.
They cry wolf, media cries louder for sheep to hear, markets affected. Do your own research.

Blood Bitcoins - here we go. Tweeted out by an older man with pronouns in his bio. Every year Bitcoin gets attacked; usually the topic is energy usage consumption and while Im not saying that doesnt have any merit, it shouldnt be paired with the fallacy that ties it to the uprising.

Cloud computing and open source compiling has not caused the surge price of fuel therefore shouldnt be paired with this nonsense.

What youre seeing is massive issue with rise in fuel costs, powers in control that does not deal with opposition and why the consequences have been fierce.

Fariz Ismailzade, a vice-rector at the ADA University, said the Kazakhstan authorities have green-lighted the Russian military involvement as a protection against Islamic radical elements from organizing the protests.
The official line is that Russian troops are there to protect Kazakhstan from Islamic radicals, from international terrorists, he told Al Jazeera, speaking from Baku. This line is hardly believed by local citizens because the initial protests were organized by ordinary citizens.

_________________________

The greater lesson here is that government deciding winners and losers via subsidies can cause unhealthy aberrations. In this case cheap natural gas, LNG, and LPG caused people to utilize more than would normally be economical by using cheap natural gas produced electricity to produce bitcoin, switching cars from oil to natural gas powered, etc. This caused instability as the government had to pay more and more to maintain the subsidy on higher volume utilized. Eventually external forces drove a price spike the government had trouble affording to continue subsidizing, and they felt they had to reduced their subsidies. That was the spark that set off underlying civil unrest and dissatisfaction with the totalitarian regime.

So yeah TC, just because you read an article (trust me theres plenty) with a catchy title doesnt mean this is the whole truth; paired worse with people who dont already understand crytpo in general.
I mean Christ, theres people tweeting about how NFTs and artists associated have blood on their hands! This is clown world, my guy.
Imagine how many atrocities have began with the U.S. dollar. Thats the real blood money. How many lives lost to power over nefarious unbridled yearn to keep our status of monetary policy on top.

To be quite honest, this isnt so much about crypto or Bitcoin or anything related. It truly is malevolence in brilliant form scapegoating this topic for people like you to pay attention to the wrong thing.

Again, do your own research. You wont, but you should.

Most industries are making a profit at the expense of further destroying the environment. I've worked in oil & gas and healthcare. The narrative is the same: people will rationalize their destructive actions if they financially benefit from said decisions.
