Cryptocurrency promoting transition to green energy
Cryptocurrency and its mining processes have often been blamed for their negligence of the environment as the tremendous amounts of energy required to power the business has even surpassed the power consumption of some small nations on the planet. This is further echoed by the fact that the energy requirements are often fulfilled by unsustainable methods, such as fossil-fuel based electricity generation, leading to carbon pollution at the hands of the industry.
