I don't think Bitcoin can destroy the world. There are many ways we humans are destroying the world but Bitcoin is not one of them. If the problem is the energy consumption, sure bitcoin mining consumes large amount of energy. But there are many alternative ways to generate electricity through renewable energy and some mining companies are located in countries where they use renewable energy as their prime source of electricity.
In the future it may be that oil technology has been abandoned and begins to switch to other Alternative energy like the infinite solar energy. And it could be funded from Bitcoin. I think Bitcoin will not destroy the World but will make the world even better.
