I read a while back that if bitcoin mining continues, it won't be that long before it would consume something like half the world's energy output. Evidently, the more mining you do, the more energy is required in some exponential relationship.

Another reason to stop the madness (and stupidity) of bitcoin.

This is an insane waste of valuable resources. But the bitcoin lobby is showering Congress with money so the odds of doing anything about it are slim to none.
