The death of Bitcoin gaslighting in the mainstream media Using Litmaps, was possible to see that the origin of all junk science on Bitcoin's environmental impact was a single commentary by Alex de Vries. (A commentary is a short paper that puts forward an author's perspective but does not have to use novel empirical data, and which typically goes through a lighter peer review process). The method he used to claim that Bitcoin's environmental damage was a growing concern was his fundamentally flawed "energy use per transactions" method (Bitcoin energy use does not come from its transactions, therefore it can scale transaction volume exponentially without increasing emissions). de Vries' metric has now been debunked in 4 academic journals *Masanet et al 2019 *Dittmar et al. 2019 *Sedlmeir et al, 2020 *Sai and Vraken 2023 The entirety of de Vries' work was systematically debunked by Sai and Vranken in late 2023 source: That's why 96% of mainstream media outlets (everyone except Verge and WIRED) are no longer gaslighting Bitcoin's environmental impact. In many cases, they've even started covering Bitcoin's environmental benefits source for 12 mainstream media outlets: source for 8 sustainability periodicals: There is much re-education work to do though. Much of the population was misinformed over many years, and as a result many investment committees, regulators and policymakers still do not know that 13 of the last 15 papers support the environmental benefits of Bitcoin. source: Once they do, we will see mainstream adoption of Bitcoin, and mainstream adoption of Bitcoin mining as part of climate action (aka: what the peer reviewed research tells us it is) source: image

Bitcoin has now been working and trading for 15 full calendar years. It's time to see how it's doing and run some numbers. On Jan 1, 2010, there were 1,624,000 bitcoin in circulation trading at around $0.001 each. The total market capitalization of bitcoin was ~$1,624. On Dec 31, 2024, there were 19.803 million bitcoin trading at around $93,389 each, for a total market capitalization of $1.85 trillion. In total over the 15 years, the size of bitcoin cash balances has increased by 11,400,000,000,000%, or around 11 billion percent. If, during the next 15 years, bitcoin grows at only 1 millionth of its growth rate over the last 15 years, it grows to a total market cap of around $210 trillion, making it larger than all the world's fiat currencies and government bonds combined. In such a world, a government may be able to keep its shitcoin alive if it doesn't inflate its supply too much (a big if, and an even bigger may). Whether they do or do not is largely inconsequential, because either way, inflation won't be able to touch the majority of the world's wealth. Any bitcoin bearish thesis needs to present a coherent explanation for why bitcoin's next 15 years are going to have a growth rate that is significantly lower than a millionth of the rate of the past 15 years. Don't expect to hear one from people who get paid from the inflation bitcoin will kill. Happy 2025! Fiat is over if you want it! #bitcoin image
