Is rise of Cryptocurrency an extinction level event?

Honestly, I love your content Kyle, I really do! However, this one time, i have to disagree with you on this..... Yes, on the surface, a lot of energy is being used to mine some crypto currencies.... however, think about how traditional fiat money is maintained and the ledgers the use?? By the time you go and pull some cash out at the ATM, hom much wasted energy was used to make this happen??? You see traditional money is kept track of in the sam manner that crypto is, the difference here is that you dont perceive it thtat way..... just to have your money work on a debit card for example, takes many gactors more energy than crypto ever will.... this is the point of crypto, cutting out the middle man or government... what you dont see behind the scenes, is that there has to be a bank, its workers, its IT system, its vendors, its brick and mortar establishments, everything that comes along with that, the fuel that employees from the bank annd gov will use to get to work, the security companies that have to transport cash from bank to bank, etc..... you see traditional money banking is actually killing the environment, crypto is.... if we will allow to going to be the thing, because it is ran by blockchain an impossible to munipulate ledger, is how we will actually save the planet and all its inhabitants.

Its a matter of perspective here, traditional money uses more energy.
