I’m sure meta or google energy usage is up there but i’ve yet to see someone complaining about mr.beast or cristiano ronaldo wasting energy with their videos.
or more like because the government doesn’t have problems with people keeping themself busy on entertainment vs them using a decentralized and open currency that can bypass financial institutions
I’m pretty sure the government isn’t forcing people to watch YouTube and neither of the people you mentioned are government employees, unless you’re concocting some elaborate Alex Jones-level conspiracy theory.
You seem to have same comprehension problems or to be in bad faith. Read carefully what i wrote, it’s nothing of what you said.
Trying to label everything as a conspiracy theory is something the government and propaganda have been doing excessively over the past years. You may not like it to hear it but every time cristiano ronaldo appears in state media and gets paid for it they are indeed working for the government. When the government put restrictions on youtube competitors such tiktok or when they use it to broadcast official events, they are indeed forcing you to use youtube.
That’s not the point of the discussion anyway: cryptocurrencies aren’t controlled by the government and hard to control by design, there lies the government interest to boycott them.
Maybe if it was controlled, it wouldn’t constantly fluctuate in value and would actually be worth buying things with without hoping for a day when it’s worth more and you’re richer.
I can go to the supermarket next week and milk will cost about the same in dollars
If you live in america and you are lucky the price of thing stopped increasing perhaps it will cost the same. If you live in any other part of the world that use a different currency the price may be different
Yeah because they have a lot of servers. The problem is each individual web server does not use a lot of energy whereas each individual server running a crypto currency blockchain uses a lot of energy for that one server.

Maybe because people value entertainment more than invisible money that won’t help them anyway.

Countries currency fluctuate in times to.
I can go to the supermarket next week and milk will cost about the same in dollars as it did this week because the value does not change that rapidly.
Not true with Bitcoin.
