on recent happenings regarding jerma's coinbase promo
so i mean
right off the bat i just wanna say if you support jerma and wanna continue enjoying his content in the future, do that shit. be happy and have interests
but also consider that crypto is:
crippling local power networks;
artificially inflating the prices of computer hardware;
consuming massive amounts of electricity that increases the baseline power demand (which means more constant power sources are required to support the additional load, i.e. gas and coal power);
contributing massively to global emissions, via both elevated production of computer hardware *and* increased power demand to supplement it;
barely contributing to the actual countries crypto generation facilities are based in via strategic placement and lack of taxation on capital generated
so it's not great. for anyone. and that a big-name streamer is promoting a distribution platform... it ain't good! at least in my eyes.
if that wasn't enough, consider your response to artists producing and distributing NFTs; if you don't support artists who pull shit like that, maybe reconsider your approach to jerma's actions
thanks folks
