Are we really going to compare and say that 9 million people traveling, working, partying and making chocolate and watches consuming the same amount of energy as 300 000 people doing a transaction a day is the same?


But these figures aren't really much to do with those doing transactions. It's a few hundred or thousand miners chasing profit. Users didn't request these consumption levels though their security benefits from them.

It would be interesting to compare it to industries or companies rather than countries to see where it stands.
