The fact that bitcoin mining on its own is now consuming as much electricity as the country of Argentina with no end in sight, as we are accelerating toward a climate change cliff, is sickening. Given this fact alone it's hard to see cryptocurrency as anything but a selfish crackpot scheme to generate a few dollars at the expense of humanity and our planet.

A few years ago, a published article suggested an alternative to the universe expanding is increasing mass. Older objects increase their mass and therefore are red shifted. Why is this alternative plausible theory recieving such little attention?

Edit: changed mass decay to increase in mass. I misremembered the theory.

Does anyone else see the irony that hand waving is being disputed with hand waving?

Sorry, I strenuously disagree. I'm also a manager and think setting boundaries is essential, up, down, and sideways.

I wonder if this benefit extends to handwriting on a tablet?

Hah! Rule the world? Have you read the news lately? If human intelligence is judged by results, we'd score quite poorly. We are well on our way to causing a 6th mass extinction, which may very well include our own demise.
