So far it has. The amount of co2 emitted by mining has gone up to match it’s adoption… is that supposed to stop somehow?

The price on exchanges has little to do with onchain activity, which has always been a criticism of the valuation metrics, you are somehow reappropriating that retroactively in a way incompatible with the other criticism

its mind boggling… I would say more but I’m reserving my thoughts in case you have a rationale that is more convincing
