Considering the amount of salt this is generating, I'd say yeah, it's pretty cool. And you can do nothing to stop it.

Go ahead and try. Call the CEO of bitcoin and ask him to stop :^)

>hurrr bitcoin mining is gonna heat the planet up by one gorrillion degrees hurrr
You fucking mong, so do you think bitcoin mining magically makes your computer bellow black smoke? News flash moron, that power comes from a power plant, so if you switch the power plant to something that doesn't use fossil fuels, surprise that problem goes away. Or are you saying that your magical solar wind plants aren't as sustainable as demosharts say they are?
Then again this is probobly just another "OY VEY SHUT IT DOWN" trick by the government to get them to ban bitcoin

you know absolutely nothing about the possibilities, filthy nocoiner.
Btc consumes a lot of power because it wasn't designed to get so big, it's outdated in that sense. It's very possible to switch to a more environment-friendly algorithm. And crypto will replace banks because computers are not greedy fucks who screw people over for money, they just do what they're told. banking has just been completely automated, would you look at that.

blockchain weather data ai will know of hurricanes ahead of time. but can it be programmed to ignore geoengineering? perrhaps not if the weather sensornet data is fully blockchained. but we'll probably have more partial disclosure by then about the geoengineering, we'll be told it's for the environment, but that's bullshit. they want a planet where only monsanto crops can grow, then they have us all by the balls even harder

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST THE MINDSET OF THESE IDIOT BABIES, THIS IS BOTH BULLSHIT AND—EVEN IF IT WERE CORRECT—RETARDED
THE HIGH ENERGY CONSUMPTION—WHICH ISN'T EVEN REALLY /THAT HIGH/—IS GOOD FOR BITCOIN
BECAUSE—Y'KNOW—MONEY ACTUALLY HAS TO BE SPENT IN ORDER TO MINE IT
IF BITCOIN REMAINS POPULAR, IT'S GONNA DRIVE PEOPLE TO FIND MORE EFFICIENT MEANS OF DOING SO
YOU KNOW—LIKE, DESIGNING MORE EFFICIENT COMPUTER CHIPS?!?!?!?!?! ENCOURAGING PROGRAMMERS TO MAKE MORE EFFICIENT MINING ALGORITHMS?!?!?!?!?!? FUELLING THE FUCKING ECONOMY FOR ONCE?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?! FUCKING BRAINLESS BONGLETS A MASS-ADOPTED CRYPTOCURRENCY THAT CAN BE EARNED WITHOUT SERIOUS COMPUTING POWER OR INFRASTRUCTURE COSTS IS LIKE HAVING A CURRENCY RUN ON OPINION SURVEYS
