So BTC, no, it won’t be affected by a made up “energy” crisis that’s only in the imagination of people whose brains have been shucked by mainstream media and TV. Please, get rid of your TV set and your perspective about the world will immediately change.
This link will help many to understand why this is not an energy crisis:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrMiSQAGOS4&t=2s. This is US American professor John Mearsheimer. Of course, he is a Russian propagandist and spook, as much as Ron Paul, Tulsi Gabbard and many other authentic US Americans patriots, and everyone who does not bent down to the US warmongers are.
With this I do not say that everything Russia does is correct, or I agree with it. No, that’s not what I’m saying. But that’s also quite different from blaming Russia for anything and everything.
Russia could have a more friendly approach to BTC. Once they have already been isolated, sanctioned and blocked from the corrupt international financial fiat system, they could have gone full into declaring BTC legal tender. They haven’t done it.
Yes, I’m pretty sure, although they are denying it, they are accepting BTC as a means of exchange for their “dirty oil and gas” (when the oil and gas was coming from anywhere else, it was not “dirty” for the EU commissioners… now, it helps them to spread hate against their new “Jews” scapegoats).
And yes, for those Russian haters, ETH creator, Vitálik Buterin, is Russian! Oh yes, if you look in Wikipedia in English, he is Canadian…
… this ally of global elitists and BTC haters cannot be Russian! They hate Russians even more than BTC! But if you change that Wikipedia link to Spanish says he’s Russian. In French, Canadian-Russian (how typical of the French that in WWII had a Nazi government who helped Hitler to exterminate Jews, and convinently finished between the winners of the war, and the "savers of the Jews").
So, yes, anyone owning a BTC node is helping Russia to evade sanctions. But that was precisely the goal of the cypher punks who created BTC: to have an uncensored, free, decentralized monetary base that absolute nobody could temper with for their dirt political and warmongering purposes. And if you watch John Mearsheimer’s conference link above, you will understand why Russia is not the aggressor in this war. They are just the mean to make believe highly misinformed people we have “an energy crisis”. So, you can breathe with piece of mind if you are a Russian hater while you own a BTC node. The contradiction is not in your BTC node. It is in your hate towards Russians (or anybody else). Stop hating others!
ETH does not fulfill this purpose. Once it completely moves to POS, it’s a duplicate of the USD or the EUR. In terms of monetary theory and practice, where is the innovation? Nowhere.
