Because quite often the inefficiency of bitcoin is used to detract from all cryptocurrencies. The same way all game consoles are nintendos. If this was truly a problem people gave a shit about they’d be praising proof of stake currencies instead.
I just don’t get the point of the article. It’s not a trade off where every transaction launches a swimming pool into the sun. The water is used to power electricity and cool the electronics.

“If you’re against drinking poison drink this 1% healthier poison in place of it!”
Or maybe we can stop with this crypto shit instead?
