The topic. You guys have completely lost it.

Yup. Reply ban issued (as per views of recent feedback - better to reply ban than lock it).

Stick to BTC and power/cooling water issues.

Thanks.

I'm not a Bitcoin fan, but it's still an asinine comparison. Visa merely records the transaction, whereas crypto secures it. How much energy does everyone from Visa's fraud division to the US Secret Service spend to secure credit-card transactions?

I dunno same amount of energy they spend recovering stolen crypto.
