    In actually decreases with time (by half every four year, unless the value increases equally, which is unlikely in the long run). However you should compare the energy per transaction, which is pretty lame (5txs per seconds or similar).

      That’s the fuckey. We should not consider the energy per transaction because the energy usage does not increase as transactions increases. This is how the banks fuck with the charts to make it look lime bitcoin uses a lot of energy. It doesn’t.
