Bitcoin explained: RT Bigby Brimble

Imagine a child's concept of an evil businessman. He plugs in his pollution machine to make money. It doesn't do anything for anybody, just pollutes and then he gets money for it.

RT Ankle Megami Tensei @StochasticOoze

At least the villains in Captain Planet were generally getting something useful out of their polluting schemes. Natural resources and whatnot. Cryptomining is polluting for zeroes and ones that a handful of people have decided is money.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
