is there a serious use case where a blockchain that's only got a limited number of servers participating would be useful because the whole point of bitcoin seems to be to convert coal into co2 and tokens you can redeem for drugs

Everyone. If you posted about iraqi wmds in d&d back then (which was largely full of neocons and 'libertarians') you got laughed at. Colin Powell's UN presentation is completely laughable. It didn't matter. The decision was made. A Millennial Liberals Journey To Disillusioned Socialism has two steps: 1) gop stealing the 2000 election 2) the Iraq war

Duscat posted:i think whatever article you read was flawed Bitcoin wastes electricity because it was artificially designed to waste as much of it as possible, and because it's a global network that tons of people sink energy and money into because they think it will make them more money. Blockchain is fine if you want a secure decentralized network for records keeping since it's hard to tamper with. Something that would only be updated sporadically as needed, and not every minute of every day like with financial or bitcoin transactions - which it's way too inherently slow to be any good at. The problem is that real world applications for blockchain are so marginal that nobody would care - which is problematic because blockchain developers want it to be seen as revolutionary world-changing technology that everyone is going to want to have or get left in the dust. It's not useful for constant real-time use like they want it to be.
