TIL: 0,6 to 2,3% of US electricity usage is evaporated into cryptocoin stuff. That's about the same ballpark as electricity used to run the rail networks in Switzerland (2,8%) or Germany (~1%). Couldn't find figures for the US as just one percent of their rail network is electricified.
We all make choices, I guess.
