> The vast majority of mining today uses sustainable energy (70%+)

Do you have an source for this? I remember the same number being flaunted before but it turned out not to be true. What was true was that 70%+ of miners use any amount of renewables in their energy mix.

You’re right. The correct number is somewhere around 50%, probably over the line already, which is significantly better than any other big industry.

Do you have some source for this? I see random numbers being thrown around a lot, would be nice to have a citation for yours.
