Bitcoin needs enormous amounts of electricity to exist. This is why it is becoming a threat to our planet. According to scientists from the University of Hawaii, it is realistic that with the current consumption of electricity, the global temperature may increase by 2048 degrees Celsius by 2. One Bitcoin transaction can consume the same amount of electricity as an average household for an entire week. The biggest threat is the possible growing popularity of Bitcoin. But even a temperature increase of 2 degrees Celsius can cause devastating and irreversible effects on our planet, according to scientists.
