I think it's asinine that as a society we are supposedly more environmentally aware while at the same time inventing new ways to waste massive amounts of energy doing arguably useless calculations. Show me a coin that doesn't consume ever-larger amounts of energy as the chain grows, and the energy it does consume is useful beyond just the mathematical proof in itself, and I might get interested. As it stands something like BitCoin just appears completely wasteful and unsustainable to me.
