And some fabulous amount of energy too. A big percentage of world energy consumption is this nonsense.

Building 18tb HDD and filling them with psuedo random number is anything but eco.

They should shut it down. It was a great experiment, top tech, very useful, but it cost too much and had very little real world benefit outside helping illegal money flow.

It didn't replace the dollar and never will.
