In Response To: Carbon tax and Bitcoin ()

Bitcoin is mined using electricity to power the mining computers. Increased electricity usage results in more carbon production via combusting the coal, gas, etc..

I saw a spot on the news about how much electricity these people use. So much that some small cities are having to upgrade their electrical grid to supply enough juice. That's crazy!
