Bitcoiners were crying when I quoted @DigiEconomist that a single BTC transaction uses the same amount of energy as a single US household does over the course of nearly a month. This from the White House should really upset them: https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/ERP-2023.pdf

The White House writing clear language on the “reality of crypto assets”: Crypto assets are “mostly speculative investment vehicles” with limited real-world benefits, but with a significant real-world impact as crypto asset mining is a “risk to the environment.”

If the Bitcoin price would just move to $1M already we can still make it happen before the 2030s 👌 https://twitter.com/silvermanjacob/status/1637808755285925889

Even at just the current price level Bitcoin is already responsible for around 1% of all electricity consumption in the US and that’s only accounting for the share of miners that is actually operating in the US.
