"Of all the objections to Bitcoin, the objection that it “wastes” electricity is the most absurd. This thinking betrays a fundamental misunderstanding of how electricity works, how markets work, and what waste is." – Beautyon Today we take a break from all the discussion of doom and impending economic obliteration to hit a favorite topic of mine, from a simple, but important angle. This article came back across my view and I realized it was one I had never covered and thought it would make for a good short episode and rant. Enjoy!
