They’ve been lying to you about Bitcoin’s energy use.
This video exposes the truth behind the FUD — the media headlines, the smog-filled images, the “Bitcoin is boiling the oceans” panic. It’s all built on a complete misunderstanding of what Bitcoin is, what it does, and why it uses energy in the first place.

💡 Bitcoin isn’t a tech toy — it’s hard money.
🔌 Proof of Work isn’t a bug — it’s what keeps the network decentralized, secure, and honest.
🌍 And here’s the twist: Bitcoin might actually help the environment more than it harms it.

If you’ve ever heard someone say “Bitcoin is bad for the planet,” this is the video to send them.
