Topic: Is cryptocurrency bad for the environment? - page 4. (Read 941 times)
there is no pollution caused by bitcoin, it's only possible that bitcoin mining requires greater electrical energy so that the electrical energy used increases. but I don't think it will be a problem, because currently a lot of electrical energy is being developed that comes from natural uses, such as wind power or hydro power.
I think bitcoin is.not pollution.for environmental.pollution that causes.pollution everywhere, so this is.very unlikely.to happen, because what can.pollute.the environment.itself is.the traffic jam pollution.that is.engulfing big cities, therefore.we don't need to worry about bitcoin because it will not cause.environmental.pollution
Bitcoin mining destroys the environment is one of the many myths circulating among the public and government, but many people are reluctant to believe that bitcoin mining is much more environmentally friendly than natural resource mining in general. I found an interesting resource here to read.
So far I am confused by people's belief about bitcoin mining being dangerous or having a bad impact on the environment. Although we know there is a lot of mining of other natural resources including gold, other metals have a direct impact on the environment but many people don't really care. Why does bitcoin and cryptocurrency mining get so much attention from the government or from other circles that some government like China have to ban and close mining farm? Is it possible to say that the government is the enemy of bitcoin so far judging by the way they really care about bitcoin mining which is said to be damaging to the environment?

We spend %0.1 of our energy on bitcoin --- but for that expenditure we get financial freedom for humanity. It's a small price to pay.
I don't like that much of the environmental narrative as of late focuses on the amount of energy used to secure the bitcoin network without emphasizing what a truly amazing thing it is for humankind that the energy goes toward.

if someone says crypto is bad for the environment, we should not care about those who say all that, because we know, there are still many big companies that cause the environment to be unclean, but why is it supported by the government, from here we know, whatever the government can't control, there must be a lot of negative posts, we should just ignore it..
Crypto can be harmful to the environment by using a large amount of electricity to mine but we also know a few harmful factors are inevitable in industries, to compensate for the environment, the government also regularly collects high taxes and they also rebuild tree reserves, this exchange is probably not too much damage, the environment will still be very fully produced and built up every year. Besides, with the technological factor being studied by scientific institutes, the elimination of emissions and bad factors of mining will soon take measures.

And why did everyone decide that nature is subject to negative effects from human activities, including from cryptocurrencies? Yes, there are changes in nature, but why does everyone think that this is from the influence of humans and cryptocurrencies? Or maybe there is simply a change in the position of the earth in relation to the sun and from this the climate changes? Of course, making harmful emissions, deforestation and other factors is not a very good thing, but where is the evidence that all this is affecting climate change? And there is no evidence and there will not be, since it is simply beneficial for many countries to pursue such a policy in order to perform various manipulations. Yes, cryptocurrency mining consumes electricity, but how exactly this negatively affects nature, I do not understand. I believe that cryptocurrency is not harmful to the environment, and such statements are deception and manipulation of people's minds.
Cryptocurrency is an environmentally friendly technology. At this time bitcoin mining, although altcoin mining will not pollute the environment because all the tools used to mine cryptocurrencies do not emit smoke and do not emit hazardous waste from mining results.
Just like what happened a few months ago when the tweet about it cause some big issues in the market and the reason for it to crash just because of that non-sense topic where it does not prove any point. Looks like they already planned that thing before tweeting those words because it is impossible that the reason for the market to fell last few months was because of the bad to environment thing. Therefore, whenever they tweet those negative words and link them to cryptocurrency, we should take heed and don't listen to them because they are not really hearing themselves every time they talked, it's just simply non-sense at all.
it's been proven, following the instructions of tweet tweets makes us deviate from the initial trading strategy and try to test our luck because the information is raw and not ready for consumption. no matter how raw the information is, just for the sake of making a profit we forget trading discipline.
Yup, I really hate this situation because when the popular man tweet on his page about environment issue of BTC that was just a bullshit. They use this issue just for their own profit and kill the price. But as the penny investor, we follow what whales said meanwhile they told the statement with full politic agenda behind of this.
Everything that has a major influence on economic growth will be used as a political game so as to trigger two parties who are pro and contra. both are designed to balance and behind them institutions play behind the scenes. Yes, they are high-level economists who run businesses in murky waters. found the pearl in the garbage heap.
So far, while there is a lot of speculation that cryptocurrencies are bad for the environment, but there is no evidence to show the damage caused by crypto mining. in fact it is not harmful, because if you compare the mining of gold then you need to reflect on the statement that mining crypto is much more effective and efficient, than mining gold, coal, natural gas, etc.
just because it uses a waste of electricity that requires high power? okay, let's see how much it costs Bitcoin mining and electricity costs? I think a lot of speculation is exaggerated so that those who are interested in mining Bitcoin think again.

I heard there is some news saying that BTC mining pollutes the environment because it is quite expensive to mine electric energy and to generate this electric energy they use the way to create pollution rate. very high environment.
Does mining produce this electricity? I don't think so, they are just consumers like any of us. It's the source that we should be worrying about because they are the ones that is causing the pollution because they're the one that burns the fossil fuels and oils for electricity.

How is it exactly baad for the environment though? I mean there's no physical thing involved in cryptocurrency, it's just a consumer of electricity, even though it consumes a lot, that doesn't mean that it's going to destroy the environment, the key word is consumer meaning that cryptocurrencies are just like households, they consume energy but they don't produce any. Remember that what we should be focusing on is the producers of electricity because they are the reason for the destruction of the environment.

People say that cryptocurrency is harmful to the environment, because miners use a lot of electricity to mine, but mining other projects also uses a lot of electricity, such as oil, such as gold. But people are not optimistic about Bitcoin. They will say some negative news. When people don't know Bitcoin, there is no news that Bitcoin is harmful to the environment. Because if Bitcoin is influential, it will be controversial,
It’s all FUD by people who work for governments or organisations that are scared of bitcoin making them obsolete.
They did it in the 90’s about the internet & about electricity in the 1900’s. It’s a load of rubbish. Think how much energy the world banking industry uses or how much energy is used in war. It’s pathetic, just buy bitcoin & ignore it.
Very well said mate! If we do look back in time then those are just bullshit things for government and other people involved on making out some issues whenever they do sawThey did it in the 90’s about the internet & about electricity in the 1900’s.

that it would be totally opposing or would really be putting them on disadvantage or would really impose some threat but look at we now? Its been a decade where Bitcoin
is already existing and we have seen countless of issues been thrown and lots of criticism had been endured and still we are standing from this very moment.
Environmental issues? Its just a lame excuse and just to make it look bad.
Anything that involves the burning of fossil fuels and the pollution of the air is bad for the environment. And cryptocurrrencies aren't the prime offenders in this as far as I know. We have corporations to blame for not giving renewable resources a chance to shine because oil and non-renewable resources rake in much bigger stacks of money for them than the healthier and much more environmental-friendly variants. This is bound to change in the future however as more and more people are enticed to take in cheaper and renewable alternatives, which these companies will be forced to adopt or adapt into.

Yawn. The FUD and nonsense that gets bandied around and repeated is nauseating.
The answer to the thread is: no.
Some questions should be answered before one can ask that question:
1. Is the environment constantly changing?
2. What are the optimal environment conditions for earth? For humans? For other life?
3. What is the cost of the tradeoffs involved? e.g. between fiat's total environmental impact; between the people who are using fiat to steal from everyone every year etc.
Just an open ended question like the title is worthless unless the goal is to spam with nonsense to help advertise your casino.
