The model I used to calculate 0.74% assumes Bitcoin&#x27;s market cap is $1 trillion(!).<p>We can all agree that IF the market cap gets this large, it will mean Bitcoin will have had a huge positive impact on society. Therefore it will have been worth it to spend 0.74% of the world&#x27;s energy.<p>Edit: I am puzzled by the downvotes. I would like to hear (and respond to) counterpoints if what I am saying is incredibly silly.
