No it's designed to eliminate debasement and inflation

It's required because of PoW.

It's not really the media though. It's respected doctors and their ep·i·de·mi·ol·o·gy.

gl00pp··on Bitcoin Energy Consumption Index
Even if the 'BitCoin' <sic> is distributed exactly the same as money is now the 80/20 Where 20% of the population control 80% of the money.

Wouldn't it be better if your money (that was BitCoin <sic>) increased 2% a year instead of decreased 2% a year?

gl00pp··on Bitcoin Energy Consumption Index
So you're essentially saying:

"If you have cash, you should gamble it by investing it in stocks or business."

but that's risking the money I earned. I don't want to risk it, I earned it, I just want to save it and not have it evaporate over the years.

gl00pp··on No End in Sight for Crypto Sell-Off as Bitcoin Breaches $4,250
I mean I hear ya but it seems a little bias when they are 'projecting'. I mean, if I had 0 wives last week, got married this week, does that mean in 2 months i'll have 8 wives? (no i am not in UT)

"Here we show that projected Bitcoin usage, should it follow the rate of adoption of other broadly adopted technologies"

gl00pp··on Recycling in the United States is in serious trouble. How does it work?
Shit Son, that was real.

I have always thought that recycling is a scam. That it really only makes sense for things like glass and some metals. But everyone is caught up in the feel goodness and if you don't you're some kind of animal.

I say put everything in the landfill, we will one day harvest it and all that resource will be in one place!

gl00pp··on Thousands Say Kratom Cured Their Addiction, Government Says It’s Another Opioid
I have to agree with you on the debate being framed by the addiction treatment lobby. I don't have any direct proof, but I have heard scores of stories about "treatment salesmen" connecting to peoples mothers and grandfathers to offer help with their addicted relative. All to shuffle feet through specific treatment centers doors.

With that going on, I wouldn't doubt if it was the old "budweiser lobbying against weed" dealy.

gl00pp··on Bitcoin’s Price Was Artificially Inflated Last Year, Researchers Say
As mining is an economic investment, they want cheap electricity. Cheap electricity is where there is excess that is not being used and would be otherwise wasted. That's why there aren't many large mining operations in NYC but there are in upstate NY near hydro.
