Daniel Batten: Questions resurface about Bitcoin energy use per transaction
Bitcoin energy use criticism resurges

Daniel Batten references a recurring discussion about Bitcoin and its energy consumption. In this tweet, Batten highlights the criticism that Bitcoin uses a significant amount of energy per transaction.

The comment adds to ongoing debates about energy efficiency in crypto networks, often targeting Bitcoin's environmental impact.

Batten has previously pointed to Paraguay’s use of unused hydro energy for Bitcoin mining as a way to build state reserves and fund infrastructure. In earlier research, he said Bitcoin mining can support grid decarbonization and reduce the reliance on gas. The energy debate remains active as new data and policy efforts develop.
