If I were a socialist who was politically opposed to the huge benefits of cryptocurrency gaining major adoption I would boil it down to "exploiting human greed" and pretend it's operating under the assumption that the energy expenditures are a "waste" and therefor detrimental to climate change.

If you can't understand the compound harm to the environment (for starters) of nations states existing and controlling currency, I feel bad for you. If you do understand it, you should know you're rightly fearful of this technology, because it's going to play a major factor in your future demise.
