Blockchain is raw garbage. The bitcoin network ALONE undid every single bit of good we achieved in terrestrial-used solar energy over 40 years, literally every gain from that wiped straight out in less than two years. Ethereum was #2 as far as energy usage goes.

We had this back in the 70s, FWIW. It failed as a miserable hunk of garbage then, it's failing as a miserable hunk of garbage now by all metrics except how efficiently it parts fools from their money.
