I live in Australia and my.air conditioning runs for free off of solar. In many parts of the country people would die without AC.

Also crypto has no utility and should be banned.

I agree crypto has no utility but I also really don't want to live in a world where governments ban me from buying and selling knowledge of numbers because of the particular algorithm which produced them. Or from using my computer to compute whatever I want.
