Don't forget to also include the environmental destruction from gold mining... Mercury and cyanide aren't exactly good for your health

Virtue signalers will forever yell about the energy footprint of Bitcoin, but never think to dry their clothes outdoors or avoid Christmas lights. It's the same type of people who feel good about themselves by driving electric cars that are built on the backs of children laborers in some obscure mine in the East.

Very sad that this fact is seldom in the debate. Comparisons to small countries or things like Christmas lights are so more widespread but much less relevant.
