Bitcoin doesn't fall in the category of goods though. It's a service. If it stops operating, any "coins" it had allocated are just bits in the wind.

Now you may say you should be free to spend money on the horrendous energy bill of those miners, so that they allocate some coins to you. If there were no externalities, I'd agree. But since there are, I will argue against doing it. And we won't bridge that divide here I guess.
