Oh no, the people trying to start a financial revolution accidentally screwed over people who wanted to play video games!!! Give me a break. Its very possible that cryptocurrencies will never make a difference and end up being a failed experiment but the majority of the arguments i see against it are so weak/tired. Large companies are ruining the environment in developing countries but you’re worried about the energy consumption of cryptos??

I am worried about both things, in fact I touched on it in regards to manufacturing all this hardware to calculate virtual numbers that have absolutely no value in reality.
