I know these things use a lot, but relative to the national usage is it a significant number? I’ve read this statement a few times but the amount is never quantified to something that makes sense. Like, how much has electricity usage increased in the last two years and can be directly attributed to data centers?
The article is irritatingly short on details; what I wanted to know is how it determines going offline == bad.

It seems like there’s plenty of use cases but I’m not aware of any popular platforms that make it feasible with their fees. I assume there are a bunch of costs associated with processing those cc payments but surely they aren’t large enough to make in infeasible to process small payments.
