I recently read [/] "An Order-of-Magnitude Estimate of the Relative Sustainability of the Bitcoin Network" , from Hass McCook .

In this book , he made a detailed study about estimating the durability and cost of the Bitcoin network.
He compares Bitcoin against the gold industry, the banking system and the production of physical currency.
And , Bitcoin is by far the most energy efficient monetary system we have ever made !
Here are some numbers:

Banking system: 23340 million GJ (energy consumed) + 390 million T of CO²
Bitcoin mining: 3.6 million GJ (energy consumed) + 0.6 million T CO².

I don't know yours opinions about that , but I'm really excited , I want that erveryone know that !  Grin Grin


I know guys that it's really hard to delete these systems , and maybe not possible , I just think Bitcoin is the best system , and I just want to share my opinion , to touch a lot of people , and sensibilize them , it's important.
Nowadays , a lot of people are still thinking that Bitcoin is a scam , " a bubble" , they don't know the technology , they speak before learning , they don't understand and don't want to understand.
And I want to educate these people, it's my mission , and I sware iI will succeed : my goal is that people understand what is the potential of Bitcoin !


I don't see anything to be rejoiced about here. The fact is bitcoin is not replacing or deleting any other financial system especially fiat. The worst case scenario would be they both coexist which is something that I see happening. The banks would eventually adopt the blockchain technology to do the same thing they are currently doing but this time, in a more efficient and secure way that is made available by blockchain. The reason for that is simple the technology is open source which makes it easy for any intelligent developer to work on it and for banks that have either in-house team of developers or dedicated consultants for that purpose, there won't be any serious issue in getting a solution.

Your statistics sound right but decisions such as this are not made bases on statistics alone because it goes to the very foundation of the country if they are deleting their own financial system.
