so I guess you shame anyone who enjoys the Beatles then?

I’m seriously thought that was Stevo

Legislators will take too long to do anything about it though lol

Good on them!

Land of the free lol

Why couldn’t it be a positive word? Assuming you’re disassociating it from bitcoin

A statement doesn’t make it true, even when believed by few

Lololol

You’re right I shouldn’t have lashed out, just frustrated. I’ve posted links to support my argument, not everything is black and white and some bad actors will always taint any good work done in any industry.

P.s I started swinging after everyone’s comments. Note the edit portion of my post

I totally understand, I’m tired of having the conversation as well. In the video I posted earlier it sheds light on how renewable energy companies can be incentivised to add mining bitcoin to their process. Has a lot to do with modern tech and how energy is used/distributed.

Example of a mining company working with the Navajo nation in the US adding solar panels.

Could you explain how it’s a pyramid scheme? General curious as no one owns it

I encourage you to read more. If you’re using lemmy then you should already understand the core concept of bitcoin (not crypto/shitcoins)

Bitcoin miners aren’t doing re work, they mine the next block of thousands of transactions.

There’s also the other side of the conversation that over 51% of the network uses green energy.

Does anyone know how much energy the banking system uses?

Edit: lol so much downvote for a reasonable question? Enjoy your inflation and your money being sent overseas by your masters squares

It’s crazy peoples experiences so far, I got to play all week with zero issues, had some issues over the weekend but decided to not queue up to let others join.

Also over half is used by green energy already and will continue to grow
