This "fake news" was originally released by the magazine "Nature", which said that bitcoin mining can raise the temperature by more than 2 °C in 11 years, depending on the adoption rate of bitcoin.

“Bitcoin, a high-energy cryptocurrency, is increasingly used in investment and payment systems,” the introductory part of this paper writes:

• The future adoption rate of Bitcoin, if similar to the adoption rate of other widely adopted technologies, can generate enough carbon dioxide alone and increase the temperature by more than 2 °C in less than 30 years.

Although the term “environmentally unfriendly” about Bitcoin often appears in media reports, the paper “Nature” has sparked debates among some well-known Bitcoin.

According to Nic Carter, co-founder of CoinMetrics.io, the data in this paper is based not only on "naive hypothesis," but also that many of the mainstream media that report it cannot link the story to the paper itself.

• I wish you massive profits :)
