Does using nostr mean I HAVE to use bitcoin? I would rather use tezos: this could be a deal-breaker for me. #crypto #bitcoin #tezos #thereisnoplanetB

Environmental effects of bitcoin - Wikipedia

A 2022 non-peer-reviewed commentary published in Joule estimated that bitcoin mining resulted in annual carbon emission of 65 Mt CO 2, representing 0.2% of global emissions, which is comparable to the level of emissions of Greece.

Tezos is a pioneer in environmental responsibility within the blockchain space. It utilizes a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) mechanism, which has a much smaller energy footprint compared to Proof-of-Work (PoW). In fact, Tezos' energy usage is equivalent to just 17 global citizens.

Well, your environmental claims have been thoroughly debunked as bullshit. #Bitcoin has many environmental (and others) benefits that you could easily find if you wanted the truth.

But no, you don't have to use sound money to use Nostr on free relays. You can also run your own relay.

I find it aggressive and off-putting of you to imply that I'm not interested in the truth: that's not a great way to help people learn. I'm new-ish to all this and would be interested to learn more. I found this link: do you have any others you'd like to share? https://tinyurl.com/crypto-myths
