    That is the opposite of apples to apples.

    Per capita measurements exist for a reason.

      Per what capita? There’s only one global banking system on Earth. That’s what makes it global. There’s only one Bitcoin blockchain, and it’s globally accessible. Trying to subdivide either into arbitrary regions based on geographic or geopolitical borders is meaningless.

        How about per ‘people who are actually going to use this shit for day-to-day spending’?

        I just got my mom using a password manager and still have to remote in to help her from time to time. And you wanna get her to move to digital cash that, once stolen, is unrecoverable?

        Get real.

          That’s a strong argument against password managers. We probably shouldn’t allow them, since some people are going to find them difficult to use.

          ETA: Doubling the number of people using Bitcoin (especially on layer 2 protocols), is not going to remotely double it’s energy usage.

            You’d have a point if managing passwords was as central to existing in modern society as being able to use money.

              Modern society, you say? I would say that it absolutely is, but that’s just me. You do you.
