It doesn’t relative to many other industries. It doesn’t if you compare it to the entire banking system.
And even if it does using energy is good. Every increase in human standard of living has come with increased energy demand.
If you want someone who can present the argument better I would suggest Daniel Batten. https://x.com/dsbatten/status/1523167671990521856?s=46&t=opFMGEQXdk09WvPsXf4z6g
