It doesn't really matter, because our grandchildren will inherit the electric debt as well as the bitcoin wealth.
True. They get our debt, but I was more thinking about the debt to Earth's ecosystem. If the bitcoin difficulty rises, think about how many jiggawatts are being added to the system and how much stress there is on our planet. Plus, if bitcoin is going to be releasing new coins until the year 2033, we are probably going to have a zillion plug-in hybrids or full-EV cars on the road. Personally, I hope I own a flying car in the year 2033. Maaaaybe in the future, video cards will become more efficient, but still. I just hate to waste electricity. I have probably 2kw running 24/7 and I know a lot of other people do, too.
I feel for all the naive people on this planet. But a part of me wants to laugh at their ignorance, too.
My friend, energy is not limited. We are not destroying the planet with our energy consumption and there is no such thing as made made global warming. If you truly believe that, I have an Easter Bunny that was born as a direct descendant from 36 generations of successive Easter Bunnies going back to the Grand Pubah Easter Bunny himself of 1453. This is Easter Bunny Royalty! This a a real cute bugger. I only want 50 bitcoins for him. PM me, okay?
