    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

      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.

      Yes. Legacy banking systems use way more than at least Bitcoin.

      “Bitcoin’s emission intensity, a measure of emissions per unit of power, is now its lowest ever, dropping 18x faster than the banking sector over 4 years.”

        Lol. Fucking batcoinz? That’s the source? Also love that you have to pay to read this random guys musings about bitcoin. The way to make money in Bitcoin is still mostly selling others on Bitcoin.

        What a slow burn of a pyramid scheme.

          The link isn’t the sources but merely a conduit for the cited information. Also, you don’t have to pay to read it. Clearly you didn’t see the “continue reading” link to get passed the popup.
