In this video, I discuss whether Bitcoin mining wastes energy.
I conclude that Bitcoin mining does not waste energy, for two primary reasons:
1) Bitcoin mining rigs are incredibly energy efficient, and continue to get more energy efficient over time;
2) Bitcoin mining is a worthy use of energy, because Bitcoin provides a unique form of neutral and ethical money that cannot be captured, controlled, debased, or censored.
Appointing an "energy czar" to tell everyone what is and is not a good use of energy is a slippery slope, and probably not very market efficient.
Bitcoin is money that:
1) Cannot be debased.
2) Cannot be censored.
I think that's at least as good a use of energy as Christmas lights
