Create a Bitcoin Improvement Proposal, if it gets voted for and approved, the bitcoin protocol gets updated, or forked, and then the users will decide which version they deem safer and which they support.
How is it deceptive or misleading? If these mines can be optimized for areas with ideal renewable energy potential the resulting demand will create an infrastructure of cheap renewable energy and keep it stable and productive.
you could do the exact same thing but instead of mining bitcoin, power computation to solve actual problems. crypto can work on proof of stake (eg Ethereum), there is no reason to use more energy intensive process than necessary.
Bitcoin mining does solve actual problems: 1) Provides an economic solution to the intermitency problem of renewable energy generation and transmission with respect to supply and demand curves; 2) Provides anyone on the planet with an internet connection 24/7access to a permissionless global monetary network that's self audited and has no counterparty risk; 3) Provides dissidents/journalists living under politically repressive regimes with an open and permissionless way to raise money and transact outside of the existing financial system Just because you don't like it for ideological reasons doesn't mean that Bitcoin's proof of work mining has no utlity. Proof of stake is just recreating the existing financial system on a blockchain where those with the biggest bags have the most say in governance and receive the largest share of staking rewards by virtue of having the biggest bags. Also, staking rewards are just glorified token inflation that only serves to devalue the underlying asset over the long run. The people hurt the most are those at the bottom of the economic totem pole with the smallest holdings.
Bitcoin is the first digital property right and digital commodity and has transacted TRILLIONS of dollar worth of value without the need of a company/bank. Infact, $62 trillion dollars from 2021-2022 alone, according to coinmetrics, a cryptodata collecting company. Seems kinda useful and futuristic... Try doing that with gold (or any type of property asset) in the modern digital era...
The issue is that sometimes it actually isn't. There are a lot of challenges with getting renewables to reliably power a grid, and one of them is that you will often have way more power than what's being used.
Energy ISN'T FINITE. Energy is abundant and can be used to create revenue. The problem is renewable energy is stranded and is hard to transport. However, Unused Renewable energy can be funded by bitcoin mining if that energy is not being used. These renewable energy is NOT POLLUTIVE.
Bitcoin is already one of the most environmentally friendly uses of energy on the planet it's monetizing what would have been wasted energy or stranded energy. it's empowering small communities in Africa across the world it actually makes renewable energy profitable.

It doesn't solve the transport issue - we can't efficiently move charge from hot and windy SW Texas to the population centers than need it. Also, batteries not fully efficient, you always lose some percentage of what you store, sometimes a very large percentage. Lithium batteries are relatively efficient, but lithium mining is enormously destructive and difficult. I know people working on improving the "mining" methods (they actually extract lithium from groundwater), but even if that improves, lithium will be primarily used for applications where it's important to be relatively light and portable (laptops, cell phones, cars, etc). For now, batteries are not a sufficient solution to the massive inconsistencies in renewable power output.
@@duncanrobertson6472 there are already alternatives to Lithium (e.g. compressed air, CO2, ambri, h2o, flow batteries, concrete Block Towers, ...) In a net of increasing renewables, storage will be a major concern. These batteries reduce peak loads of the net and provide a smoothing of the fluctuations from renewables. Bitcoin miners flatten out the peaks but unless batteries cannot provide stored power back in other times. There are already other Crypto techniques requiering less power ... (Proof of stake - ehterium, Proof of space-time Chia, ...)

The idea is that if the power is needed for the grid, it can be used for it. But if not, it generates income. By increasing the economic viability of solar panels - which can have issues with excess generation at times of the day when power is cheap - hopefully they enable more to be produced and installed everywhere.
A more green solution to this would be a battery that stores and releases excess energy like a capacitor instead of burning off the additional energy into heat.
I somewhat get that ...but I still dont understand how is putting all those resources in green grid building for Bitcoin, rather that say houses or industries? ...I mean, aren´t we struggleing enough with changeing our current energy mix? ...for a financial asset that requires increaseingly amounts of energy, you will eventually need insane amounts on infrastructure to support its operation.

This is one of the great reasons why states should encourage Bitcoin mining - Balancing the power grid. One problem power grid operators face is increased peak demand on very hot days. This is a problem because the energy demand is not constant so they cannot invest to increase capacity. Bitcoin fixes this. By creating demand at all times, which can be dynamically adjusted as required, it gives the incentive to expand capacity. This is what we should be explaining to power alarmists as to why Bitcoin mining is actually good. And of course also the fact renewables are being increasingly more employed since they're cheaper by the day.

@@DiiceForeveroOYou’re wrong, It isn’t mutually exclusive, it can be both decentralized and a pyramid scheme. Each cryptocurrency is itself a pyramid scheme in which value is added to the currency via an exchange with real world currency. Those who arrive early and collected coins see the value of their coins rise exponentially while those who purchase or mine the increasingly harder to get cryptocurrency lose when the early miners and purchasers withdraw real world currency, deflating the exchange rate, causing the pyramid scheme to collapse. What makes this decentralized is that there is no direct communication between the parties, but rather a concentrated effort through the collective understanding that if they hype up the project, more people will exchange real currency for cryptocurrency. Those who were literate in financial crimes probably would’ve spotted this pattern and either stayed away or perpetuated the pyramid benefiting themselves while those who were none the wiser hadn’t the knowledge to stay away from criminal activities.

Increase in the use of solar for crypto mining can also increase solar manufacturing overall, which would decrease solar costs, and further encourage power plant builders to use solar.
Crypto had the opposite effect on cost of GPUs. increased demand -> increased cost. in most systems, that would lead to increased production, increased efficiency with scale, and reduced cost (as you predict). I suspect that when the thing driving demand is literally the production of money, it breaks the loop that should decrease cost because any increase in manufacturing efficiency is matched with increased demand that prevents costs from going down.
