Yeah, tbh I'm not really interested in arguing it because I don't have a position, like I said, I'm studying the "technology" (lol) and integrating it into other aspects of my understanding.

FWIW, when I think of blockchain, I'm not just thinking bitcoin, but more about what "secure value transfer" (lol yes I know again) + liquidity + "smart contract code" + some trust can do longer term.

I figure that there is room to improve as technology improves.. thats what I'm exploring.

I like nonce cents as most likely to be adopted by coiners who think it's a funny nice joke that also describes coins, but not at their expense.

You're so smug now, but we all know you won't be posting during the next big crash. Which may have already started given it's dropped like $400 in less than 72 hours.

It's true because mining is mostly done in areas like Sichuan China where electricity is cheap due to hydropower.

https://coinsharesgroup.com/research/bitcoin-mining-network-december-2019 - you can put in a nonsense email to view it.

Bitcoin mining is tolerated in such areas until it's not, e.g. it was banned in an upstate New York city after mining farms started gobbling up 11.2 megawatts per month and the city was forced to buy more electricity from non-renewable sources.

Yeah ask the Yangtze River dolphin about how ecofriendly Chinese hydropower is.

Carcinization has happened in five different places in evolutionary history already... perhaps coiners will become decapods as well?
