If BTC uses clean energy, someone else has to use the dirty energy because BTC took the renewable they could have used. Mining has also driven up costs for communities that had cheap renewables.

BTC is a waste of energy because it doesn't do any of the things it claims to do. It's highly centralized, far more wealth imbalance, and trending towards custodial accounts if it ever wants to reach mass adoption.

That would depend on where the financial motivation to produce renewable energy is coming from.

A logical argument could be made that bitcoin encourages the production and advancment of green energy technologies by rewarding such efforts with wealth generation.

Oh BS I keep hearing about bitcoin farms that get shut down because they are stealing electricity. That is more likely than someone running one on solar and wind. AND that solar/wind would've been better used to offset a fossil fuel source of electricity than being used on completely and utterly fake and worthless "money"

Not all logical arguments follow a path of truthiness
