2025-06-02 22:55:52The dark side of crypto's energy debate: AI will consume 50% of data center electricity by year-end, dwarfing Bitcoin's footprint. While critics fixate on Bitcoin's environmental impact, artificial intelligence quietly devours exponentially more power with far less scrutiny. This energy hypocrisy reveals a selective outrage that has little to do with actual environmental concerns and everything to do with controlling financial innovation. The next time someone lectures you about Bitcoin's energy use, ask them about their AI chatbot habits—the carbon footprint might just leave them speechless. Are we really concerned about energy consumption, or just afraid of financial freedom?
