lol -- does anyone who reads these articles ever stop to think about all the energy used by the traditional financial system? All the various banks large and small and their branches, their myriad computer systems, Wall Street and all the exchanges and brokers, hedge funds, derivative machines, the international money markets, etc. etc. etc. These energy comparisons always set up an 'apples to oranges' scenario to convince you how bad Bitcoin is.
