Sooner or later all countries will tax crypto. Because they want piece of the crypto pie too

Most countries, with the exception if a few already tax crypto profits in the shape
of capital gains tax, treating it like any other investment.

In Europe some of us are already paying Carbon Tax so the more electricity you use
the more you pay https://taxfoundation.org/carbon-taxes-in-europe-2020/

If I buy an Electric Car which uses Electricity from the national grid, the same grid
which burns coal to generate electricity I dont pay any extra Carbon Tax just because
I have an EV, I pay the same rate as boiling a kettle.

The article is just another attack on Bitcoin using electricity again to beat it with.
