A comment on Bitcoin emissions alone could push global warming above 2°C: study from 2018. Parent comment
If a cryptocurrency could decrease such centralization of power and consequent waste of human lives, money and energy it would be excellent.

This makes the whole conversation fall into whataboutism.
