One year ago Bitcoin's network was consuming as much energy as Ireland. Now it has apparently doubled and now it is consuming 1% of the world's total electricity consumption.

This, in a time when the world is trying to reduce carbon footprints to avoid or slow down global warming.
Is Bitcoin sustainable as it is?
I don't think so - in fact I'm sure it is not. There is a limit to insanity.

What is likely to happen next? Which are your thoughts?

it's time for miners to switch to alternative energy, no longer using fossil-powered electricity.
this is for the common good, natural resources are increasingly depleting, coal stocks are also running low. if we don't save electricity from now on.
just imagine 20 years from now we will experience a natural resource crisis. and of course that will have a bad impact on the whole world.
