      This is false Bitcoin is not "backed by energy" in the sense that other currencies are backed by gold You cannot take your Bitcoin and trade it back for energy -- a BTC does not entitle you to the megawatt-hours of the ton of coal it took to mine it It entitles you to nothing

      This is why Bitcoin is pernicious, it's a meaningless token with *no underlying value* and *no legal rights or guarantees bestowed on the holder* And it does not *store* energy or *contain* energy the way ridiculous statements like this imply it does It simply *uses* energy

      Every new Bitcoin mined and every Bitcoin transaction *burns up stored physical energy* that is irretrievably lost and can never be used again as a result Second Law of Thermodynamics, Mr. Scientist -- all it does is rapidly increase the entropy of the system

      What percentage of Bitcoin mining is renewable energy? Find and industry that has a higher percentage. Speaking of entropy, have you found out how to safely and securely send $1M overseas? If you have, you may say these are problems of the rich. Until L2https://twitter.com/JackMallers/status/1346866335536582656 …

      Right, nobody could safely and securely send money overseas before Bitcoin, international transactions of any kind were a terrifying gamble until 2017 or so Dear God listen to yourself

      It's more about being able to send money w/o using a custodian or third party. The cost to transport gold is far far higher. Fiat can be clawed back or amended centrally. Missing the point of how and why bitcoin is cheaper.

      I am, because it is, in fact, not cheaper

      Very few people in a position to send or receive $1 million share your hilarious paranoia about the government seizing it from you, and the ones for whom that paranoia is justified and Bitcoin has a genuine use case are not people who have my sympathy

      Billions of people on earth live under authoritarian regimes, and even those of us who don't, are subject to inflation. You may not sympathise with those people, but clearly it's growing in use over the last 12 yrs. So whether you like it or not, you'll have to deal with it.

      Nah BTC is only specifically useful for routing around the barrier of lacking access to a banking institution The volatility makes it a completely insane solution for actually *storing* money in it, especially for someone with little cash cushion

      And if you're not the well-heeled wealthy kind of criminal (i.e. the kind who's most likely a bad person who hurts people) Bitcoin gives you very little security People badly misunderstand this -- the whole "trustless" concept of Bitcoin means the ledger is fucking public
