If Bitcoin can be spent, its owners can be coerced to spend it, so it can be stolen. Regarding excess energy, I'd rather have energy storage firms be that buyer.

Cryptocurrencies may have a part to play in the future of humanity, but Bitcoin will not be it. It's a proof of concept that's overstayed its welcome.
