The connection of Bitcoin with the environment, and everything dependent on that, will have a much deeper effect than realised, as long as that is excluded from any conversations.
It can be interpreted as really bad, if the renewable energy and fossil energy industries, and unhinged billionaires are to be believed.
But actually it is incredibly good, Bitcoin appears to be the gateway to a new solar powered future which will change completely the way we see money, from something generated on Earth, to something generated from an extraterrestrial source, the sun, freeing us from the Grand Energy Ponzi (GEP), at last.
Then we see free money, and all investments, and even all possesion in a completely different light.
The difficulty of limited transactions frequency becomes no longer a thing, when we realise that in the very near future, Bitcoin is actually a system of solar powered distributed authority, which authorises the generation of POW money by all people, money with the intrinsic value of direct solar energy.
The maths is in my story on the Kardashev Hinge, for anyone interested.
