So do you admit that to an anarchist or libertarian that Bitcoin does have value? The US military is the #1 user of energy on the planet. I definitely consider them a net negative to humanity, yet they're what's propping up the same neo-liberal democracy you think should be establishing the rules. Is that an acceptable use of energy to you?

I think Bitcoin is an excellent use of energy because it's at least a potential alternative to our current governmental systems. A small piece of the puzzle but a prerequisite to change none the less.
