Wait until you hear how much of the world's total energy is wasted on ads (manufacturing, transmission, power usage) or spam email.


While I hate ads with a burning passion, they do affect multiple orders of more people than cryptos ever did, even if that effect is far from positive (but not blanket negative either).


That's a good company for cryptocurrencies to be in, don't you think? Just as wasteful and useless.


- "X is extremely wasteful"

- "Wait until you hear how much Y is more wasteful"

Ok?
