Bitcoin mines are energy-hungry data farms.

    A fraction of what it takes for thousands of machines to perform rework of the same problem.

    This isn’t the good argument you think it is.

      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.

      This isn’t the good argument you think it is.

      Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

      I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.

        Damn, if you’d actually watched the video you’d know he spends about 40 minutes covering the issues with crypto as it’s crucial to understanding NFTs.

        Nice try, though.
